Purpose
In order to keep our immune systems healthy over our lifetime, certain cells in the bone marrow and lymph nodes called stromal cells nurture the immune cells and protect them from damage. Stromal cells and blood cells communicate using a protein called SDF1a. The investigators think that cancer cells including lymphoma and multiple myeloma can trick the stromal cells into helping them avoid damage from chemotherapy by using SDF1a.
Plerixafor is a drug developed to block the effects of SDF1a and has been approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for use in humans to help release blood stem cells from the bone marrow for use in transplantation. The use of plerixafor to interrupt communication between stromal cells and cancer has not been approved by the FDA and is experimental.

| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Non-Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official Title: | Pilot Study of Lymphoid Tumor Microenvironmental Dysruption Prior to Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation |
- The rate of grade 2 or greater adverse events related to study participation will be compared to historical controls matched for diagnosis and chemotherapy regimen. [ Time Frame: 2 hours before high dose chemotherapy ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Confirm the safety of the addition of plerixafor as a single dose or as a two-day dose commencing 2 hours before the high dose chemotherapy regimen prior to autologous stem cell transplantation.

| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
|
Experimental: Cohort A
0.24 mg/kg day 1
|
Drug: Plerixafor
Plerixafor will be dosed according to actual body weight. Each dose will be capped at 24 mg (single vial). Plerixafor will be administered subcutaneously according to the assigned cohort starting two hours before the scheduled start of high dose chemotherapy.
Other Name: Mozobil

Experimental: Cohort B
0.24 mg/kg daily, day 1 & 2
|
Drug: Plerixafor
Plerixafor will be dosed according to actual body weight. Each dose will be capped at 24 mg (single vial). Plerixafor will be administered subcutaneously according to the assigned cohort starting two hours before the scheduled start of high dose chemotherapy.
Other Name: Mozobil

No Intervention: Cohort C
Six "control" subjects will have research bloods drawn but receive no plerixafor.
