Brief Summary:
This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving donor T cells after donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. In a donor stem cell transplant, the donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this effect.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the feasibility of escalating dose regimen (EDR) donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) as measured by the proportion of patients who receive at least one DLI.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess progression free survival (PFS) at 2 years after stem cell transplant (SCT) for high-risk hematologic malignancies receiving T-cell depleted grafts followed by escalating dose regimen (EDR) prophylactic DLI compared to historical controls not receiving DLI.

II. To assess the safety of EDR DLI for high-risk hematologic malignancies as measured by cumulative incidence of severe grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

III. To measure outcomes of grade II-IV acute GVHD, non-relapse mortality, overall survival and chronic GVHD of EDR DLI.

IV. To assess the full donor chimerism rate in the CD3 compartment and immune reconstitution after EDR DLI.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive DLI intravenously (IV). Treatment repeats every 4-8 weeks for 5 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

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

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Patients Who Are Able to Receive at Least One DLI Treatment [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Time to relapse or death as a result of any cause was evaluated at 2 years and the progression free survival rate was reported.

  2. Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: At 2 years ]
    Computed using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit estimate and expressed as probabilities with a 95% CI.

  3. Rate of Acute GVHD (aGVHD) With Any Grade [ Time Frame: At 1 year and 2 year ]
    Estimated by cumulative incidence method.

  4. Rate of Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) [ Time Frame: At 1 year and 2 year ]
    Estimated by cumulative incidence method.

  5. Treatment-related Mortality [ Time Frame: At 2 year ]
    Estimated by cumulative incidence method. Cumulative incidence of treatment-related mortality with relapse of the original disease as the competing risk will be calculated.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA PRIOR TO TRANSPLANT:
  • The clinical trial will be offered to all high risk (defined 3 below) patients with hematologic malignancies who require stem cell transplants as part of their standard of care using matched related or unrelated donors
  • Patients with high risk myeloid or lymphoid malignancies at stem cell transplant following American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (ASBMT) criteria, including but not limited to conditions listed; these criteria apply BEFORE cyto-reductive therapy given within 28 days of planned conditioning:

    • Refractory acute myelogenous or lymphoid leukemia
    • Relapsed acute myelogenous or lymphoid leukemia
    • Myelodysplastic syndromes with 5% or more blasts
    • Chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase 3 or more, blast phase presently, or second accelerated phase
    • Recurrent or refractory malignant lymphoma or Hodgkin's disease with less than a partial response at transplant
  • High risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia defined as no response or stable disease to the most recent treatment regimen
  • DONORS: Matched related or unrelated donor stem cell transplant (SCT) matched at human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A- B, C, and DRB1 by molecular methods; 7 of 8 matched donor acceptable for related donors
  • T-cell depletion with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) (rabbit or horse) or at least 30 mg of alemtuzumab total in the conditioning regimen
  • Immune suppression; planned post-transplant immune suppression should include tacrolimus or cyclosporin monotherapy (i.e., calcineurin inhibitor or CN) for alemtuzumab regimens and a second immune suppressant for ATG treated patients; other agents may be used if CN intolerance or toxicity occurs post-transplant
  • Zubrod performance status (PS) 0-2 or equivalent Karnofsky PS
  • Eligible for allogeneic transplant in the treating physicians' judgment and by institutional standards
  • ELIGIBILITY TO RECEIVE DLI POST-TRANSPLANT:
  • Donor lymphocytes available or able to be collected
  • No evidence of disease by standard morphology; minimal residual disease or molecular evidence of disease will not exclude
  • Absolute neutrophil count >= 500/μl
  • Platelet count >= 20,000/μl without transfusion for 7 days
  • Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) =< 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Bilirubin =< 3 x ULN
  • No evidence of grade II or higher acute GVHD or chronic GVHD at initiation of first DLI
  • No systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs (topical acceptable); replacement steroids for adrenal insufficiency are not excluded

Exclusion Criteria:

  • EXCLUSION CRITERIA PRIOR TO TRANSPLANT:
  • Pregnant or lactating females
  • Hepatitis B with positive viral load prior to transplant conditioning or hepatitis C virus
  • Human immune deficiency virus
  • Psychiatric illness that may make compliance to the clinical protocol unmanageable or may compromise the ability of the patient to give informed consent
  • Creatinine >= 2.0 mg/dL
  • SGOT and SGPT >= 5 x ULN; liver biopsy preferred for such patients
  • Bilirubin >= 3 x ULN (unless Gilbert's syndrome)
  • Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) < 50% corrected for hemoglobin
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction or shortening fraction < 40%
  • Unlikely to be able to procure additional donor lymphocytes
