NCT03849651

Brief Summary

Patients less than or equal to 21 years old with high-risk hematologic malignancies who would likely benefit from allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Patients with a suitable HLA matched sibling or unrelated donor identified will be eligible for participation ONLY if the donor is not available in the necessary time. The purpose of the study is to learn more about the effects (good and bad) of transplanting blood cells donated by a family member, and that have been modified in a laboratory to remove the type of T cells known to cause graft-vs.-host disease, to children and young adults with a high risk cancer that is in remission but is at high risk of relapse. This study will give donor cells that have been TCRαβ-depleted. The TCR (T-cell receptor) is a molecule that is found only on T cells. These T-cell receptors are made up of two proteins that are linked together. About 95% of all T-cells have a TCR that is composed of an alpha protein linked to a beta protein, and these will be removed. This leaves only the T cells that have a TCR made up of a gamma protein linked to a delta protein. This donor cell infusion will be followed by an additional infusion of donor memory cells (CD45RA-depleted) after donor cell engraftment. This study will be testing the safety and effects of the chemotherapy and the donor blood cell infusions on the transplant recipient's disease and overall survival.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Maximum Effective Dose for Prophylactic CD45RA-depleted DLI

    The maximum effective dose (MED) of CD45RA-depleted DLI, defined as the maximum value of doses that satisfy the proportion of patients with their memory T cell count measured at week 4 post-DLI more than 300/uL is more than 50% and the toxicity of grade 3-4 aGVHD is less than 20%. Dose selection used a protocol-specified algorithm.

    4 weeks post-DLI (up to approximately 12 weeks post-transplant)

  • One-year Event Free Survival (EFS) After Completion of the Protocol

    Kaplan-Meier estimate of the percentage of being alive and relapse free one year after the date of transplant. (Events=relapse, death)

    One year after receiving transplant

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • The Number of Patients Experiencing Blinatumomab Permanent Discontinuation Due to Toxicity

    28 days after receiving first dose of Blinatumomab (up to approximately 7 months post-transplant)

  • The Estimate of Cumulative Incidence of Relapse

    1 year after receiving transplant]

  • The Estimate of Overall Survival

    One year after receiving transplant

  • The Cumulative Incidence of Any Severity Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD)

    One year after receiving transplant

  • The Cumulative Incidence of Any Grade Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD)

    One year after receiving transplant

Transplant participants

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive a conditioning regimen of ATG (rabbit),Cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg intravenous once daily, mesna, fludarabine, thiotepa, melphalan, followed by HPC,A Infusion(TCRα/β+ and CD19+ depleted),HPC, A infusion (if needed to achieve goal CD34+ cell dose.CD45RA-depleted DLI will be given at least two weeks after engraftment. Blinatumomab will be given at least one week post-DLI, and only to patients with CD19+ malignancies. G-csf 5mcg/kg subcutaneous or intravenous daily until ANC \>2000 for 2 consecutive days. Cells for infusion are prepared using the CliniMACS system.

Interventions

FludarabineBIOLOGICAL

Fludarabine phosphate is a synthetic purine nucleoside analog. It acts by inhibiting DNA polymerase, ribonucleotide reductase and DNA primase by competing with the physiologic substrate, deoxyadenosine triphosphate, resulting in inhibition of DNA synthesis. fludarabine phosphate IV QD on days -8 to -4

Also known as: Fludara
Transplant participants

infusion IV

Transplant participants

Cyclophosphamide is a nitrogen mustard derivative. It acts as an alkylating agent that causes cross-linking of DNA strands by binding with nucleic acids and other intracellular structures, thus interfering with the normal function of DNA. intravenously (IV) once daily (QD) on day -9

Also known as: Cytoxan
Transplant participants

Thiotepa is a cell-cycle nonspecific polyfunctional alkylating agent.

Also known as: Thioplex
Transplant participants

Melphalan, a derivative of nitrogen mustard, is a bifunctional alkylating agent. Melphalan is active against tumor cells that are actively dividing or at rest. melphalan IV QD on days -2 to -1

Also known as: Alkeran
Transplant participants
G-csfBIOLOGICAL

G-csf (granulocytic colony stimulating factor), is a biosynthetic hematopoietic agent that is made using recombinant DNA technology in cultures of Escherichia coli. G-CSF stimulates production, maturation and activation of neutrophils. In addition, endogenous G-CSF enhances certain functions of mature neutrophils, including phagocytosis, chemotaxis and antibody--dependent cellular cytotoxicity.

Also known as: Neupogen, Filgrastim
Transplant participants
MesnaDRUG

Mesna is a synthetic sulfhydryl (thiol) compound. Mesna contains free sulfhydryl groups that interact chemically with urotoxic metabolites of oxaza-phosphorine derivatives such as cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide. Following glomerular filtration, mesna disulfide is rapidly reduced in the renal tubules back to mesna, the active form of the drug.

Also known as: Mesnex
