  Purpose

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, busulfan, and etoposide, before a donor umbilical cord blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer 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. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving antithymocyte globulin before transplant and tacrolimus and prednisone after transplant may stop this from happening.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying how well donor umbilical cord blood transplant works in treating patients with advanced hematologic cancer.

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the safety and feasibility of performing donor umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies, in terms of > 80% engraftment rate at day 100 post-transplant and ≤ 50% transplant-related mortality.

Secondary

  • Determine the toxicity of a myeloablative preparative regimen comprising busulfan, fludarabine, and etoposide prior to UCBT in these patients.
  • Determine the neutrophil and platelet recovery in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the event-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Evaluate lineage-specific chimerism after UCBT and assess the contribution of each individual cord blood unit to post-transplantation hematopoiesis in these patients.
  • Determine the incidence, severity, and timing of acute and chronic graft-vs-host disease in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a pilot study.

  • Preparative regimen: Patients receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes on days -7 to -3, busulfan IV over 2 hours 4 times daily on days -7 and -4, etoposide IV over 4 hours on day -3, and anti-thymocyte globulin IV over 6 hours on days -2 and -1.
  • Donor umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT): Patients undergo donor UCBT on day 0. Beginning on day 7, patients receive sargramostim (GM-CSF) IV or subcutaneously once daily until blood counts recover.
  • Graft-vs-host disease prophylaxis: Patients receive tacrolimus IV continuously over 24 hours or orally twice daily beginning on day -2 and continuing until day 180 followed by a taper. Patients also receive oral prednisone twice daily on days 13-50 and then once daily on days 50-60, followed by a rapid taper.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for approximately 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 10 patients will be accrued for this study.
