Summary
This is a unique dose-escalation trial that will titrate doses of umbilical cord blood (UCB) Treg and CD3+ Teff cells with the goal of infusing as many CD3+ Teff cells as possible without conferring grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In this study, the investigators propose to add UCB Treg and UCB CD3+ Teff cells to the two TCD UCB donor units with the goal of transplanting as many CD3+ Teff cells as possible without reintroducing risk of acute GVHD. The investigators hypothesize that Treg will permit the reintroduction of CD3+ Teff cells that will provide a bridge while awaiting HSC T cell recovery long term. The co-infusion of Treg will prevent GVHD without the need for prolonged pharmacologic immunosuppression.Phase:

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:- Only patients requiring a double umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplant are to be
considered for this study.
UCB Requirements
- Three UCB units are required - one for Treg production and two for UCB transplant. The
unrelated UCB donors must be 4-6/6 HLA-A, B, DRB1 matched with the recipient (HLA
matching using molecular techniques: A and B to antigen level resolution and DR to
allele level resolution). Suitable UCB units will be selected according to the
University Of Minnesota UCB Graft Selection Algorithm.
- Suitable UCB units must be ABO matched.
Disease Criteria:
- Patients aged 18 to 55 years
- Acute Myeloid Leukemia: with morphologically persistent disease in a representative
bone marrow aspirate sample with ≤ 10% blasts after at least 1 cycles of chemotherapy
(if patient refuses or is disqualified from alternative protocols), or in 3rd or
higher complete remission (CR).
- Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia: with morphologically persistent disease in a
representative bone marrow aspirate sample with ≤ 10% blasts after at least 1 cycles
of chemotherapy, or in 3rd or higher CR
- Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Blast Crisis: with ≤10% residual blasts in the bone
marrow aspirate after at least 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy in combination with a
tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)
- Refractory Anemia with Excess Blasts: (≤ 10%) in representative bone marrow aspirate
sample of blasts after 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy. If treated with
hypomethylating agents, patients are eligible if blast count is ≤ 10% after 4 cycles
or evidence of stable or progressive disease after at least 2 cycles.
- Chronic Myeloproliferative Disease
- Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, Marginal Zone B-Cell Lymphoma
or Follicular Lymphoma: disease must be refractory after at least two chemotherapy
regimens or is chemotherapy sensitive but has residual nodal disease of ≥ 5 cm
- Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma, Mantle-Cell Lymphoma, Prolymphocytic Leukemia: disease
must be refractory after at least two chemotherapy regimens or is chemotherapy
sensitive but has residual nodal disease of ≥ 5 cm
- Large Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: disease must be refractory after at least two
chemotherapy regimens or is chemotherapy sensitive but has residual nodal disease of ≥
5 cm
- Lymphoblastic Lymphoma, Burkitt's Lymphoma, and other High-Grade NHL: disease must be
refractory after at least two chemotherapy regimens or is chemotherapy sensitive but
has residual nodal disease of ≥ 5 cm
- Performance Status, Age, and Organ Function
- Adequate performance status defined as a Karnofsky score ≥ 80%
- Adequate organ function defined as:
- Renal: creatinine < 2.0 mg/dL,
- Hepatic: bilirubin, AST/ALT, ALP < 5 x upper limit of normal,
- Pulmonary function: DLCOcorr > 50% normal,
- Cardiac: left ventricular ejection fraction > 45%
- Voluntary written informed consent signed before performance of any study-related
procedure not part of normal medical care
Exclusion Criteria:
- Available medically suitable HLA-identical related donor
- Active infection at time of transplantation (including active infection with
Aspergillus or other mold within 30 days)
- History of HIV infection
- Pregnant or breast feeding. The agents used in this study may be teratogenic to a
fetus and there is no information on the excretion of agents into breast milk. Females
of childbearing potential must have a blood test or urine study within 14 days prior
to registration to rule out pregnancy
- Prior myeloablative transplant within the last 6 months
- Extensive prior therapy including > 12 months alkylator therapy or > 6 months
alkylator therapy with extensive radiation
- Patients who have received Y-90 ibritumomab (Zevalin) or I-131 tositumomab (Bexxar) as
part of their salvage therapy (not eligible for myeloablative umbilical cord blood
transplant)
