Study #2018-0221
Anti-viral Central Memory CD8 Veto Cells in Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
MD Anderson Study Status
Enrolling
Treatment Agent
Anti-Thymocyte Globulin, Cyclophosphamide, Cytokine-treated Veto Cells, Fludarabine
Description
This phase I/II trial studies how well cytokine-treated veto cells work in treating patients with hematologic malignancies following stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Cytokine-treated veto cells may help the transplanted donor cells to develop and grow in recipients without causing graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD - when transplanted donor tissue attacks the tissues of the recipient's body).
