Pacritinib, a Kinase Inhibitor of CSF1R, IRAK1, JAK2, and FLT3, in Adults and Pediatric Participants 12 Years of Age or Older With Myelodysplastic Syndromes or Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) are blood disorders that can cause serious complications in children and adults. MDS and MDS/MPN can also progress to acute myeloid leukemia. Treatments for these disorders are risky and not always effective. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a study drug (pacritinib) in adults and children with MDS or MDS/MPN. Eligibility: Children (aged 12 to 17 years) and adults (aged 18 years and older) with MDS or MDS/MPN. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have tests of their heart function. They may have a bone marrow biopsy: An area over the hip will be numbed; a needle will be inserted to remove a sample of soft tissue from inside the hipbone. Pacritinib is a capsule taken by mouth. All participants will take the study drug 2 times a day, every day, in 28-day cycles. They will write down the date and time they take each capsule. Doctors will assign varying dosages of the drug to different participants. Participants will have clinic visits each week during cycle 1; every 2 weeks during cycle 2; and gradually increasing to every 3 months after cycle 13. Treatment will continue for up to 8 years. Bone marrow biopsies, heart tests, and other tests will be repeated at intervals throughout the study. Participants will also fill out questionnaires about their quality of life, the symptoms of their disease, and other topics.

Subsequently, the participants will be monitored for side effects related to the study treatment during Safety Follow-Up Period and Long-Term Follow-Up Period. The approximate duration of participation for a participant is up to approximately 6 years. During the study period, participants will visit the study clinic/hospital multiple times as per the study schedule. During Treatment Period, the participants will come to the clinic/hospital approximately every two to four weeks.

Eltrombopag as a Novel Therapeutic Approach for Low-risk MDS and CMML With TET2 Mutations

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a study drug called eltrombopag can improve the blood cell counts in patients with low-risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) with mutations in TET2 gene, observe changes in the TET2 gene over time, and evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment. TET2 gene is one of the most frequently mutated genes (altered parts of the DNA) in MDS and CMML. Eltrombopag is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug for the treatment of severe aplastic anemia and low levels of platelets in patients with persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and chronic hepatitis C. Eltrombopag is considered investigational (experimental) in this study because the FDA has not approved its use in the treatment of low-risk MDS or CMML. Eltrombopag is a drug that helps stimulate the body's process of making more platelets (small components of blood that help with clotting) by interacting with specific parts of cells. This interaction starts a series of signals that encourage the growth and development of the cells that produce platelets. It was found that this drug could stop the growth of TET2 mutated cells.

Haploidentical Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Using TCR Alpha/Beta and CD19 Depletion

Patients with medical conditions requiring allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) are at risk of developing a condition called graft versus host disease (GvHD) which carries a high morbidity and mortality. This is a phase I/II study that will test the safety and efficacy of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with ex-vivo T cell receptor Alpha/Beta+ and CD19 depletion to treat patients' underlying condition. This process is expected to substantially decrease the risk of GvHD thus allowing for the elimination of immunosuppressive therapy post-transplant. The study will use blood stem/progenitor cells collected from the peripheral blood of parent or other half-matched (haploidentical) family member donor. The procedure will be performed using CliniMACS® TCRα/β-Biotin System which is considered investigational.

Itacitinib With High-dose Posttransplantation Cyclophosphamide in Older Patients

This research is being done to learn whether drug called itacitinib, which is a novel inflammation- and immune-lowering drug (immunosuppressant), can be given before and after non-myeloablative peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT; also known as a 'mini' transplant) to help prevent certain complications such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) for patients with blood cancers, using peripheral blood from a relative. The investigators will also examine if by using itacitinib the investigators can reduce the duration of MMF (other immune suppressive drug administration posttransplant).
