Objectives

  1. Determine the response rate of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, acute leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, myelodysplasia, aplastic anemia, Fanconi's anemia, histiocytosis, hereditary immunodeficiency, or storage disorder treated with allogeneic umbilical cord and placental blood transplantation.
  2. Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
  3. Determine survival in these patients treated with this regimen.
  4. Determine the incidence of graft-versus-host disease in these patients treated with this regimen.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
