Purpose
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving busulfan and fludarabine in different doses before a stem cell transplant can help control the disease better than the standard method in patients with leukemia or MDS. In this study, 2 doses of busulfan will be given 2 weeks before a stem cell transplant followed by 4 doses of busulfan and fludarabine during the week before the stem cell transplant, rather than the standard method of giving 4 doses of busulfan and fludarabine only during the week before the stem cell transplant.
The safety of this combination therapy will also be studied.
Busulfan is designed to kill cancer cells by binding to DNA (the genetic material of cells), which may cause cancer cells to die. Busulfan is commonly used in stem cell transplants.
Fludarabine is designed to interfere with the DNA of cancer cells, which may cause the cancer cells to die.

| Official Title: | Randomized Phase II Study of Timed Sequential Busulfan in Combination With Fludarabine in Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation |
- Non-Relapse Mortality Rate (NRM) [ Time Frame: 100 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Bayesian monitoring rules monitor the 100-day NRM rate. Proportion of patients with NRM reported for each treatment arm, along with 95% Bayesian credible intervals. Bone marrow aspiration to check status of the disease around Day 30, and about 3, 6, and 12 months after the transplant.
- Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Day 30 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Progression-free survival calculated from the time of transplant by the method of Kaplan and Meier. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis used to assess the association between these survival parameters and clinical and treatment covariates of interest.

|
Experimental: Fludarabine + Busulfan
Fludarabine administered by vein at dose of 40 mg/m2 in 100 ml of normal saline (NS) on Days -6 through -3. First two doses of Busulfan, 80 mg/m2 administered as an outpatient or as an inpatient to facilitate for this pharmacokinetically directed therapy. |
Drug: Fludarabine monophosphate
40 mg/m2 by vein on Days -6 through -3.
Other Names:
Drug: Busulfan
80 mg/m2 by vein on Days -13 and -12. Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies will be done with the first dose. Higher Dose Group: Busulfan administered at dose calculated to achieve a total (including first two doses delivered on day -13 and -12) systemic exposure of 16,000 ± 12% µMol-min or 20000 ± 12% µMol-min based on the pharmacokinetic studies. Other Names:
Procedure: Stem Cell Infusion
Fresh or cryopreserved bone marrow or peripheral blood progenitor cells infused on Day 0.
Drug: Tacrolimus
Starting dose of 0.015 mg/kg (ideal body weight) as 24 hour continuous infusion daily adjusted to achieve therapeutic level of 5-15 ng/ml. Tacrolimus changed to oral dosing when tolerated and can be tapered off after day +90 if no graft versus host disease (GVHD) present.
Other Name: Prograf
Drug: Methotrexate
5 mg/m2 by vein on Days 1, 3, 6 and 11 post transplant.
Drug: G-CSF
5 mcg/kg/day subcutaneously beginning on Day +7, and continuing until absolute neutrophil count (ANC) is > 500 * 10/L for 3 consecutive days.

Experimental: Fludarabine + Higher Dose Busulfan
Fludarabine administered by vein at dose of 40 mg/m2 in 100 ml of normal saline (NS) on Days -6 through -3. First two doses of Busulfan, 80 mg/m2 administered as an outpatient or as an inpatient to facilitate for this pharmacokinetically directed therapy. Depending on randomization, Busulfan administered at dose calculated to achieve a total (including first two doses delivered on day -13 and -12) systemic exposure of 16,000 ± 12% µMol-min or 20000 ± 12% µMol-min based on pharmacokinetic studies. |
