RATIONALE: Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder in which abnormal, crescent-shaped red blood cells interfere with the ability of the blood to carry oxygen through the body and can cause severe pain, stroke, and organ damage. Bone marrow transplantation, is a procedure in which the soft, sponge-like tissue in the center of bones producing white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets is replaced by bone marrow from a another person. Bone marrow transplantation may be an effective treatment in relieving the symptoms of sickle cell disease.
PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of bone marrow transplantation in treating children who have sickle cell disease.

Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Treatment |
Official Title: | Phase I/II Study of Induction of Stable Mixed Chimerism After Bone Marrow Transplantation From HLA-Identical Donors in Children With Sickle Cell Disease |
Estimated Enrollment: | 50 |
Study Start Date: | December 1999 |
Primary Completion Date: | August 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients undergo total body irradiation on day 0, followed by allogeneic bone marrow transfusion. Patients also receive fludarabine IV daily and cyclosporine IV twice a day on days -1 to 1. Patients then receive oral cyclosporine on days 1-90, and oral mycophenolate mofetil twice a day on days 0-27.
Patients are followed for 100 days, monthly for 6 months and then annually for 2 years.
Ages Eligible for Study: | up to 16 Years |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
