Clinical Trial Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of irradiated donor cells following stem cell transplant in controlling cancer in patients with hematologic malignancies. Transfusion of irradiated donor cells (immune cells) from relatives may cause the patient's cancer to decrease in size and may help control cancer in patients receiving a stem cell transplant.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the toxicity associated with the administration of irradiated haploidentical cells (IHC) to patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if there is evidence of disease response associated with IHC. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if treatment with the irradiated cells induces an immune response targeting tumor associated epitopes. OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts. COHORT I: Within 42 days after hematopoietic engraftment (both neutrophils and platelets) after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), patients receive initial treatment with IHC. Patients that do not have evidence of relapse or progressive disease may be treated every 8-12 weeks for up to 3 doses. COHORT II: Patients with high-risk disease receive initial treatment with IHC within 70 days after hematopoietic engraftment (both neutrophils and platelets) after allogeneic HSCT. Patients being treated for relapsed disease may receive initial treatment with IHC any time after relapse is documented. Patients that do not have evidence of relapse or progressive disease may be treated every 8-12 weeks for up to 3 doses. After completion of study treatment, patients will be followed up within 8 weeks.

• Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with chemoresistant disease at time of transplant
• Any patient undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant and an anticipated rate of relapse > 80% based upon published data and for which there is consensus amongst the Hematologic Malignancies Tumor Study Group that enrollment is appropriate
• Availability of a genetic child, genetic parent or sibling as a potential HLA haploidentical donor
• Meets standard eligibility requirements for high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell rescue (COHORT 1) or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (COHORT 2) and has signed consent for those procedures

• Not human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, HIV-2, hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis B core or human T-cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV)-I/II seropositive; hepatitis B surface antigen (HB S ag) (-); meet other infectious disease screening criteria utilized by RWJ Blood Services;
• No uncontrolled infections, other medical or psychological/social conditions, or medications that might increase the likelihood of patient or donor adverse effects or poor outcomes;
• Meet other blood bank criteria for blood product donation (as determined by RWJ Blood Center screening history and laboratory studies)

Exclusion Criteria:
