Brief Summary

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). Recently, strategies based on immunotherapy adoptive cells (IAC) with anti-CMV Cytolitic T Lymphocytes (CMV-CTLs) has been incorporated to prevent or treat CMV after HSCT. The aim to study donor derived CMV-CTLs after haploidentical HSCT (HAPLO) as prophylaxis for CMV infection in transplant patients. CMV-CTLs will be administer at day 21 (+-7 days) post-HAPLO. CMV DNA levels with quantitative PCR will be weekly monitored.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 100-days incidence of CMV infection

    Viral load \>200 copies in 1 sample

    From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 100 days after transplant

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • 1-year incidence of CMV specific antiviral drug use

    From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 1 year after transplant

  • 1-year incidence of CMV disease

    From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 1 year after transplant

Other Outcomes (3)

  • 1-year incidence of CMV-CTLs adverse events

    From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 1 year after transplant

  • CMV-CTLs persistence

    From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 2 months after infusion

  • Immune reconstitution post-HAPLO

    From date of transplant to day 180 post-transplant

Study Arms (1)

CMV CTLs

EXPERIMENTAL

1x10\^5 CMV-CTLs/kg

Biological: CMV CTLs

Interventions

CMV CTLsBIOLOGICAL

The donor derived cytomegalovirus specific T lymphocytes (CMV-CTL) will be transfused to the patients. The patients will receive CMV-CTL cells when their donors are sero-positive for CMV-DNA 21 days after transplant. The CMV-DNA levels will be monitored weekly for at least 100 days after the HAPLO. If after the initial dose of CMV-CTL cells the patient develops a viral infection, then they may be eligible to receive a CMV specific antiviral drug.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients who received an alogeneic stem cell transplantation from haploidentical donors (HAPLO).
  • Any source of stem cells (peripheral blood or bone marrow).
  • CMV-seropositive donors.
  • Negative pregnancy test in women.
  • Signed writen informed consent.
  • DONORS:
  • HLA haploidentical and CMV-seropositve donors.
  • Donor must be checked and suitable.
  • Signed writen informed consent.
  • Donor without active infection evidence at leukapheresis.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients without haploidentical CMV-seropositive donors.
  • Patients who are not suitable for follow up visits.
  • CMV-CTLs Infusion Criteria:
  • Hematopoiesis recovery at least partial (neutrophil counts \>0.5x10\^9/L in at least 3 consecutive samples post-transplant).
  • CMV-CTLs NON-Infusion Criteria:
  • Patients receiving corticosteroid (dose of 0.5mg/kg/day of prednisone or equivalent) at infusion.
  • ECOG \> or = 3.
  • Organic toxicities grade \> or = 3.
  • Patients who received ATG, donor lymphocytes or alemtuzuamb, 28 days pre-infusion.
  • Patients with uncontroled infection defined by fevers and/or inestability and/or infection not resolved.
  • Persistent fevers 3 days before infusion.
  • Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) grade II-IV.
  • Relapse or progression after transplant and before infusion day.
  • CMV reactivation/infection after transplant and before infusion day.
  • Patients who don´t fill infusion criteria, after day 28 post-HAPLO, will be considered screening failures and will be out of the study.
