Brief Title: Haploidentical Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Transplantation: Examining Checkpoint Immune Regulators' Expression
Official Title: Haploidentical Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Transplantation: Clinical Trial and Laboratory Correlates Examining Checkpoint Immune Regulators' Expression
Study ID: NCT03480360
Brief Summary: The standard Johns Hopkins' regimen will be used in study subjects, with the use of donor peripheral blood stem cells, rather than marrow. Clinical outcomes will be defined while focusing efforts on immune reconstitution focusing on immune checkpoint regulators after a related haploidentical stem cell transplant.
Detailed Description: We propose a clinical trial to define clinical endpoints, including engraftment, 100-day survival and one year survival (Objective #1). We will characterize the incidence, prevalence and function of immune checkpoint regulators in patients' blood and bone marrow following transplantation (Objective #2). We will correlate these laboratory results with clinical outcomes and the incidence of GVHD. As an exploratory aim, in those patients experiencing GVHD and requiring treatment, we will define the frequency/expression of checkpoint regulator expression and correlate these results with the patient's response to GVHD therapy.
