Summary

This trial will study how well a reduced intensity conditioning hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) work in patients with primary immune deficiencies (PID), immune dysregulatory syndromes (IDS), and inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS).

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with primary immune deficiencies, immune dysregulatory syndromes, or inherited bone marrow failure. They must have a confirmed diagnosis and an available donor that matches their human leukocyte antigens (HLA) to varying degrees. Participants need proper organ function and agree to contraception if of childbearing potential.
What is being tested?
The study tests reduced intensity conditioning hematopoietic stem cell transplant with post-transplant cyclophosphamide in patients with specific immune and bone marrow conditions. It aims to see how well donors' cells are accepted by the recipients' bodies using this method.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions from medications like Cyclophosphamide or Alemtuzumab such as nausea, hair loss, mouth sores; risks from low dose radiation; and complications related to the transplant like infections or graft-versus-host disease.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: PID/IDSExperimental Treatment7 Interventions
Alemtuzumab IV infusion over 2 hours on days -14, -13, and -12. Day -14 3 mg followed by 10 mg. Day -13 15 mg (or 10 mg if \<10 kg). Day -12 20 mg (or 10 mg if \<10 kg). Fludarabine 30 mg/m2/day IV infusion over 2 hours on days -6 to -2. Melphalan 70 mg/m2/day IV infusion over 30-60 minutes on days -3 and -2. (Or may be given as a single infusion of 140 mg/m2/day on day -2.) Total body irradiation: 200 cGy will be administered in a single fraction on day -1. Bone Marrow will be harvested and infused on day 0. Post-transplantation Cyclophosphamide 50mg/kg will be given on D+3 post-transplant (within 60-72 hr of marrow infusion) and on D+4 post-transplant. Tacrolimus begins on day 5, at least 24 hours after completion of posttransplantation Cy at 0.015mg/kg IBW/dose IV over 4 hours every 12 hours. Mycophenolic acid mofetil (MMF) begins on day 5 at a dose of 15 mg/kg PO TID (based upon actual body weight) with the maximum total daily dose not to exceed 3 grams (1 g PO TID).
