Study Arms (1)
Intervention - in utero hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
EXPERIMENTALSingle dose in utero hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (IUHSCT) in fetuses with Fanconi anemia during 19 - 28 weeks gestation. The cellular product is: Semi-allogeneic, Related, Maternal Bone Marrow-Derived, Miltenyi CliniMACS Plus enriched CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells administered in utero at a dose of 1 x 10\^7-10\^9 cells/kg fetal weight with equal to or less than 1% CD3+ T cells (equivalent to 10\^5-10\^7 T cells/kg fetal weight) in a final volume of 2-5ml suspended in 5% human serum albumin in Normosol buffer (Hospira, Inc.).
Interventions
Single-dose IUHSCT Administration of Semi-allogeneic, Related, Maternal Bone Marrow-Derived, Miltenyi CliniMACS Plus Enriched CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cells Administered in Utero via fetal injection during 19 - 28 weeks gestation.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female fetuses from 19\^0/7 - 28\^0/7 weeks gestational age at time of transplant.
- Diagnosed with FA by either chorionic villus sampling (CVS), or amniocentesis, or cordocentesis with abnormal fetal chromosomal breakage studies and/or FANC gene mutations when combined with at least one of the following: 1) abnormal chromosomal breakage result consistent with an FA diagnosis, 2) family history of a 1st degree relative with confirmed FA, or 3) congenital anomalies consistent with the diagnosis of FA on fetal ultrasound.
- Parents must consent to fetal autopsy in the event of a fetal demise.
