Matched Unrelated or Non-Genotype Identical Related Donor Transplantation For Chronic Granulomatous Disease (MUNCHR)

This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Baylor College of Medicine, December 2007

Sponsored by: Baylor College of Medicine
Information provided by: Baylor College of Medicine
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00578643
  Purpose

Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is a life threatening primary immunodeficiency caused by the abnormal function of any of four components of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase system present in the phagocitic cells. The estimated incidence of CGD in the United States is between 1/200,000 - 1 /255,000 live births.

Patients will be treated with Campath (Alemtuzumab) an antibody directed against the CD52 antigen, which is present on most lymphocytes. This agent has shown efficacy as an immuosuppressive promoting donor engraftment and prevention of GVHD.

Official Title:   HLA Matched Unrelated or Non-Genotype Identical Related Donor Transplantation For Chronic Granulomatous Disease

Further study details as provided by Baylor College of Medicine:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Treat patients with Chronic Granulomatous Disease refractory to conventional therapy and without a HLA matched sibling donor by performing stem cell transplantation from 5/6 or 6/6 HLA matched unrelated or 5/6 or 6/6 HLA phenotype matched related donors. [ Time Frame: 120 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Estimate engraftment rate [ Time Frame: 120 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To estimate the risk for acute and chronic GVHD and regimen related morbidity/mortality for patients with CGD following SCT from 5/6 or 6/6 HLA matched unrelated or 5/6 or 6/6 HLA phenotype matched related donors. [ Time Frame: 120 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To examine the potential for reversal of organ toxicity (e.g. lung, liver, intestine) following engraftment and stable normal neutrophil function. [ Time Frame: 120 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment:   15
Study Start Date:   February 2004

Intervention Details:
    Drug: Busulfan

    days -9 through -6

    1 mg/kg initially (based on weight)

    Drug: alemtuzumab
    day -5 through day -2 dose: based on weight
    Drug: Cyclophosphamide
    days -5 through -2 50 mg/kg
    Drug: Fludarabine
    30 mg/m^2 day -5 through day -2
    Drug: cyclosporine
    Therapy: Cyclosporine will be administered beginning day -2. Initial dose will 5 mg/kg infused over 24 hours.
    Drug: MESNA
    days -5 through -2
    Procedure: stem cell infusion
    Stem Cell: Either bone marrow, cord blood, or peripheral blood stem cells may be used for stem cell transplantation. It is desired to infuse: for bone marrow, nucleated cells ≥ 4 X 10^8/kg recipient weight; for cord blood ≥ 3 X 10^7/kg nucleated cells; for peripheral blood stem cells ≥ 1 X 10^/kg CD34+ cells.
  Eligibility
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • CGD patients as documented by an abnormal NBT assay in a male patient and/or abnormal NADPH enzyme mutation confirmed by genetic analysis with abnormal NBT.
  • Patients must not have an HLA genotype identical donor
  • Patients must have a 5/6 or 6/6 HLA matched unrelated donor or a 5/6 or 6/6 HLA phenotype matched related donor.
  • Patients must have had at least one serious infection characteristic of those manifested in patients with CGD.
  • Patients should have an unsatisfactory response to g-interferon defined as severe invasive infection while on therapy or intolerance to interferon necessitating withdrawal from treatment.
  • Patients must not have active infection. An active infection may include the following: 1) clinical findings consistent with an infection such as fever, cavitary organ lesions, osteomyelitis 2) progression of presumed infection based upon findings of diagnostic imaging [two or more studies at least 1 month a part]
  • No cumulative organ dysfunction that in the estimation of the treating physicians will diminish the patient?s likelihood to survive this procedure.
  • Negative pregnancy test for post-pubertal female patients.
  • Echocardiogram shortening fraction >/= 28%.
  • DLCO 50% predicted or FEV1 >/= 50% predicted

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Markedly elevated C reactive protein or sedimentation rate relative to patient's baseline.
  • Invasive bone or bone marrow disease.
  • Lack of potential hematologic blood product donors in the past (related to McLeod phenotype).
