Regimen A: Hyperfractionated Total Body Irradiation/Thiotepa/Cyclophosphamide: Hyperfractionated total body irradiation to dose of 1375cGy fractions at 4-6 hour intervals three times a day for a total of 11 or 12 doses depending on age and disease risk, followed by Thiotepa 5mg/kg/day x 2 (or 10mg/kg/day x 1) and cyclophosphamide 60mg/kg/day x 2 (or Fludarabine 25mg/m2 x 5 if cyclophosphamide is contraindicated)

Regimen B: Busulfan/Melphalan/Fludarabine: Busulfan 0.8mg/kg/dose every six hours x 10-12 doses (depending on disease), Melphalan 70mg/m2/day x 2 and Fludarabine 25mg/m2/day x 5.

Hyperfractionated Total Body Irradiation is administered at a dose rate of \< 20 cGy/minute. Doses of 125 cGy/fraction are administered at a minimum interval of 4 hours between fractions, three times/day for a total of 11 or 12 doses (1375 or 1500 cGy) over 4 days (Day -9, -8, -7 and -6).

Hyperfractionated Total Body Irradiation

Thiotepa: 5mg/kg/day IV over approximately 4 hr. daily x 2 (Day -5 and Day -4). If scheduling of transplant harvests requires, the dose of Thiotepa may be administered as a single dose of 10mg/kg/day x 1.

Cyclophosphamide: 60 mg/kg/day I V over approximately 30 min daily x 2 days (d -3 and -2). Cyclophosphamide dosing will be adjusted if patient is \> 125% of ideal body w eight and will be calculated based on adjusted ideal body weight, as per MCI standard of care guidelines.

Melphalan 70mg/m2/day x 2 days IV over 30 minutes. Dose should be adjusted if patient is \> 125% ideal body weight and should be calculated on adjusted ideal body weight per MCI standard of care guidelines. Melphalan will be administered on Days - 7 and -6 for multiple myeloma patients.

Fludarabine 25mg/m2/days x 5 days IV over 30 minutes. Fludarabine may be adjusted in the case of renal toxicity.

In select cases in which the peripheral blood stem cells must be harvested a day later than requested due to a scheduling issue with the donor or Stem Cell Processing Laboratory.

This is a Phase II trial testing disease-specific myeloablative conditioning regimens for preparatory cytoreduction of patients receiving allogeneic HLA-compatible related or unrelated transplants of GCSF-mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) depleted of T-cells by positive selection of CD34+ progenitor cells using the CliniMACS system. The CliniMACS Fractionation system is a method that positively selects CD34+ progenitor cells from PBSC by immunoadsorption of cells binding on anti CD34 monoclonal antibody to paramagnetic beads, which can then be isolated by passage through a magnetized column and released by agitation of beads. Two conditioning regimens have been used successfully with an alternative similar system, isolex, which is no longer being manufactured.

For this trial, patients will be put into one of two myeloablative conditioning regimens, based on their disease, stage of disease, and dose of radiation accumulated in the course of treatment. Approximately twenty-four to forty-eight hours after completion of each conditioning regimen, patients will receive a transplant of a CD34+ progenitor cell-enriched, T-cell depleted fraction of GCSF-mobilized PBSC after fractionation on the CliniMACS device, from his/her HLA compatible donor. Due to stringent T-cell depletion, no significant Graft-versus-host disease is anticipated. Should Graft-versus-host disease occur, standard treatment would be initiated per the Transplant Service guidelines.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the potential of T-cell depleted Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplant fractionated by the CliniMACS system, when administered for disease targeted cytoreductive regimens, to secure consistent engraftment and hematopoietic reconstitution in HLA-compatible related or unrelated hosts, and to prevent or abrogate acute and chronic forms of Graft-versus-host disease. This study seeks to validate that these pre-transplant conditioning regimens, when administered with a CD34+ progenitor cell enriched, T-cell depleted graft, fractionated in the CliniMACS system, will be associated with a low incidence of non-leukemic mortality.

The sample size is as follows:

Regimen A: Hyperfractionated Total Body Irradiation/Thiotepa/Cyclophosphamide: 100 patients Regimen B: Busulfan/Melphalan/Fludarabine: 100 patients It is anticipated that the accrual will last five years. Patients will be followed for two years following transplantation.

The two myeloablative conditioning regimens are:

Regimen A: Hyperfractionated Total Body Irradiation/Thiotepa/Cyclophosphamide: 100 patients Regimen B: Busulfan/Melphalan/Fludarabine: 100 patients It is anticipated that the accrual will last five years. Patients will be followed for two years following transplantation.

CD34+ Enriched Transplants From HLA-Compatible Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

A Phase II Trial of CD34+ Enriched Transplants From HLA-Compatible Related or Unrelated Donors for Treatment of Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

To assess the incidence and severity of chronic GvHD following T cell depleted, CD34+ progenitor cell enriched transplants fractionated by the CliniMACS system.

To assess the incidence and severity of acute GvHD following T cell depleted, CD34+ progenitor cell enriched transplants fractionated by the CliniMACS system.

To assess the incidence of non-relapse mortality (transplant-related mortality) following each cytoreduction regimen and a transplant fractionated by the CliniMACS system.

To estimate the probability of survival and disease-free survival (DFS) at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years post-transplant for each disease-targeted cytoreduction regimen when used with a T-cell depleted graft fractionated by the CliniMACS system.

To determine the proportion of patients receiving optimal CD34+ (\>5x 106/kg) and CD3+ (\< 5 x104/kg) cell doses the proportion recurring suboptimal doses (\<3 x 106/kg) CD34+ cells; and the proportion of patients receiving CD3+ T-cell doses \>5 x 104/kg.

To correlate doses of CD34+ progenitors and CD3+ T cells with engraftment, graft vs. host disease and non-relapse mortality.
