NCT00997386

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to look at whether the combination of lower-dose chemotherapy with two chemotherapy (anti-cancer) drugs, called busulfan and melphalan, and an antibody medication called alemtuzumab (Campath®), can prevent rejection of donor blood stem cells so that those cells take hold and build a healthy new blood cell factory after transplant. The study will also look at the safety of the combination of drugs and of the transplant of peripheral blood stem cells from a healthy relative or an unrelated donor.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Presence of Donor Lymphohematopoietic Chimerism (Defined as at Least 50% Donor Cells in the Peripheral Blood) in Peripheral Blood by Day +100 (i.e., 100 Days After Allogeneic PBSCT).

    To determine the efficacy of related or unrelated allogeneic PBSC transplantation (PBSCT) using a preparative regimen of busulfan, melphalan and alemtuzumab, as measured by durable donor lymphohematopoietic cell engraftment. The primary efficacy endpoint is the presence of donor lymphohematopoietic chimerism (defined as at least 50% donor cells in the peripheral blood) in peripheral blood by day +100 (i.e., 100 days after allogeneic PBSCT).

    Day +100

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Participants With Relapse-free Survival.

    Day +100

  • Number of Participants With Event-free Survival.

  • Number of Participants With Overall Survival.

Study Arms (1)

busulfan, and melphalan, and alemtuzumab

EXPERIMENTAL

Three drug regimen using busulfan, and melphalan, and alemtuzumab.

Drug: busulfan, and melphalan, and alemtuzumab

Interventions

intravenous busulfan 3.2 mg/kg/dose daily for 2 days, on days -5 and -4 (i.e., 5 and 4 days, respectively, before PBSCT). intravenous melphalan 100 mg/m2 on day -3. intravenous alemtuzumab 30 mg/dose for 2 days, on days -2 and -1.

Also known as: Busulfan (Busulfex®),, Melphalan (Alkeran®), Alemtuzumab (Campath®)
busulfan, and melphalan, and alemtuzumab

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 50 to 75 years or age 18 to 49 with one or more of these risk factors: prior autologous, allogeneic or syngeneic HCT (Hematopoietic cell transplantation); not in first complete remission or first chronic phase; and/or presence of one or more medical conditions that would place the subject at high risk such as heart and kidney disease.
  • Subjects with hematologic cancers must have received at least one previous course of chemotherapy or biological therapy. In other words, the subject cannot enroll in this trial for initial treatment of the disease.
  • Availability of a healthy related or unrelated volunteer allogeneic donor.

You may not qualify if:

  • Eligible for another study or standard of care treatment that offers higher probability of cure or long-term control of subject's disease.
  • Severe abnormal function of organs such as heart, kidneys, liver.
  • Untreated or progressive central nervous system involvement by the disease.
  • Subject is pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • Performance score is below 50: at the least, requires considerable assistance and frequent medical care.
  • Positive for the HIV \[AIDS\] virus
  • Life expectancy less than 12 weeks with conventional treatments.
  • For subjects capable of having children, refusal to practice birth control while on this study and for at least 12 months after PBSCT or after stopping post-transplant immunosuppressive treatments, whichever occurs later.
