HSCT for Patients With Fanconi Anemia Using Risk-Adjusted Chemotherapy
Sponsor: Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of lower doses of busulfan and the elimination of cyclosporine will further reduce transplant-related side effects for patients with Fanconi Anemia (FA). Patients will undergo a transplant utilizing mis-matched related or matched unrelated donors following a preparative regimen of busulfan, fludarabine, anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclophosphamide.
Official title: A Phase II Trial of HSCT for the Treatment of Patients With Fanconi Anemia Lacking a Genotypically Identical Donor, Using a Risk-Adjusted Chemotherapy Only Cytoreduction With Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine

Conditions
Interventions
Busulfan
A standard dose of busulfan, associated with excellent outcomes in our previous trial will be used for young patients with marrow aplasia (arm A). A higher dose of busulfan will be used in younger patients with MDS and AML (arm B) to maximize disease control. A lower dose of busulfan will be used in older patients (arm C) to minimize toxicity.
Cyclophosphamide
Arms A, B and C - Cytoxan will be given as a 1-2 hour infusion for 4 days. The dose will be adjusted according to patients ideal body weight for obese patients.
Fludarabine
Arms A, B and C - Fludarabine will be given IV over 30 minutes daily for 4 days. The dose will be adjusted according to renal function according to Institutional guidelines.
rabbit ATG
Arms A, B and C - 4 doses will be given prior to transplant to promote engraftment.
G-CSF
All patients will also receive G-CSF post-transplant to foster engraftment.
Peripheral blood stem cell
The source of stem cells for all patients will be peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) induced and mobilized by treatment of the donor with G-CSF for 4-6 days. T-cell depletion will be uniformly performed by positive CD34 selection with the use of the Miltenyi system (CliniMACS device).
