Brief Summary
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and melphalan or busulfan and fludarabine phosphate before donor hematopoietic cell transplant works in treating younger patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Giving chemotherapy before a donor hematopoietic transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It is not yet known whether giving busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and melphalan or busulfan and fludarabine phosphate before a donor stem cell transplant is more effective in treating juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percent Probability of Event-free Survival (EFS)
Probability of Event-free Survival (EFS) for Patients after 18 months. An event is either treatment related mortality (TRM), primary or secondary graft failure, or relapse/non-response (as defined in protocol section 10). Time to event is time from transplant with patients who die between the start of the conditioning regimen and transplant given a time to event of zero.
From transplant up to 18 months
Number of Participants Who Experience Treatment-Related Mortality (TRM) by Day 100
The number of patients who experience TRM on day 100. Treatment-Related Mortality (TRM) an event defined as a death prior to relapse or non-response. Time to TRM is defined as time from transplants to TRM. Patients who die between the start of the conditioning regimen and transplant will be considered a TRM with time to TRM of zero.
From transplant up to 100 days
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants Who Experience Primary Graft Failure Event Between Arms
Day 0 - day 540 (18 months) following completion of stem cell transplant
Percent Probability of 18 Months-relapse Event Between Arms
From transplant up to 18 months
Study Arms (2)
Arm I (busulfan, cyclophosphamide, melphalan)
EXPERIMENTALCONDITIONING REGIMEN: Patients receive busulfan IV QD, every 12 hours, or every 6 hours over 2-3 hours on days -8 to -5, cyclophosphamide IV QD over 60 minutes on days -4 and -3, and melphalan IV over 15-30 minutes on day -1. TRANSPLANT: Patients undergo allogeneic HCT no sooner than 24 hours after the last dose of chemotherapy. Patients receive tacrolimus IV or PO on days -1 to 98 (related donor) or 180 (unrelated donor) and mycophenolate mofetil IV over 2 hours or PO every 8 hours on days 1-30 (related donor) or 45 (unrelated donor).
Arm II (busulfan, fludarabine phosphate)
EXPERIMENTALCONDITIONING REGIMEN: Patients receive busulfan as in Arm I and fludarabine phosphate IV over 1 hour on days -5 to -2. TRANSPLANT: Patients undergo allogeneic HCT as in Arm I. Patients receive tacrolimus IV or PO on days -1 to 98 (related donor) or 180 (unrelated donor) and mycophenolate mofetil IV over 2 hours or PO every 8 hours on days 1-30 (related donor) or 45 (unrelated donor).

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients must have a strong clinical suspicion of JMML, based on a modified category 1 of the revised diagnostic criteria; specifically, eligible patients must have all of the following:
- Splenomegaly
- Absolute monocyte count (AMC) \> 1000/uL
- Blasts in peripheral blood (PB)/bone marrow (BM) \< 20%
- For the 7-10% of patients without splenomegaly, the diagnostic entry criteria must include all other features described above and at least 2 of the following criteria:
- Circulating myeloid precursors
- White blood cell (WBC) \> 10,000/uL
- Increased fetal hemoglobin (HgbF) for age
- Sargramostim (GM-CSF) hypersensitivity OR, patients must have been previously diagnosed with JMML
- Patients must be previously untreated with HCT
- All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent
- All institutional, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and National Cancer Institute (NCI) requirements for human studies must be met
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with a known germline mutation of PTPN11 (Noonan?s Syndrome) are not eligible
- Patients with a known history of NF1 (Neurofibromatosis Type 1) and either
- A history of a tumor of the central nervous system (astrocytoma or optic glioma), or
- A malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with a complete remission of \< 1 year are not eligible
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients are not eligible
