• Availability of an eligible haploidentical donor
• Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at study entry; all sexually active patients will be educated regarding the teratogenic potential of the chemotherapy they receive, as well as the infectious risks of intercourse; contraceptive methods will be discussed and sexually active patients must agree to use an effective birth control method for the duration of the study; a medically acceptable method of contraception appropriate to the patient’s underlying disease, risk factors and lifestyle will be offered in consultation with gynecology or adolescent medicine and will commence on study entry; in general, most postmenarchal female patients may qualify to receive depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) 150 mg intramuscularly (IM) or 104 mg/0.65 mL for subcutaneous (SC) injection; injection needs to be repeated every 3 months while on study; prior to IM injection, ensure that platelet count is > 30,000 x 10^9/L; patients ineligible or refusing injectable contraceptives will be offered other medically acceptable contraceptives if appropriate, such as oral contraceptives or birth control patch, or barrier methods
• Patient or legal guardian must provide written informed consent
• DONOR: Donor eligibility will be determined in compliance with Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR 1271, subpart C; for a donor to be eligible, the donor must meet donor criteria for human cells, tissues and cellular and tissue-based products; specifically, a donor is eligible under these provisions only if: * Donor screening in accordance with 1271.75 indicates that the donor: ** Is free from risk factors for, and clinical evidence of, infection due to relevant communicable disease agents and diseases; and ** Is free from communicable disease risks associated with xenotransplantation; and * The results of donor testing for relevant communicable disease agents in accordance with 1271.80 and 1271.85 are negative or nonreactive, except as provided in 1271.80 (d) * If a donor does not meet these criteria, he/she is not eligible
• DONOR: Haploidentical family members, between the ages of 18 and 65 years, identified as an eligible donor by HLA-typing; a biological parent will generally be used as the donor
• DONOR: In addition to HLA determination, KIR genotyping will be performed on potential donors; preference will be given to donors who demonstrate KIR incompatibility with recipient HLA class I ligands defined as the donor expressing a KIR gene for which the corresponding HLA class I ligand is not expressed by the recipient; KIR genotyping and HLA class I typing will be performed in the University of Wisconsin HLA laboratory; the following KIR genes and corresponding HLA class I ligands will be analyzed: * KIR Gene; HLA Class I Ligand * KIR3DLI; HLA Bw4 * KIR2DL1; HLA C^LYS80 * KIR2DL2/3; HLA C^ASN80 If all potential donors show the same degree of KIR/KIR-ligand mismatch, donors will be preferentially selected based on B haplotype KIR gene content according to the method described by Cooley et al., using the donor KIR B-content group calculator
• DONOR: Negative testing for relevant communicable diseases * Testing for infectious disease includes: ** Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) ** Hepatitis B core antibody (Anti-HBc) ** Hepatitis C antibody (Anti-HCV) ** HIV 1 & 2 antibody (Anti-HIV-1, 2 plus O) ** Human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) I/II antibody (Anti-HTLV I/II) ** Rapid plasma reagin (RPR) (Syphilis Treponema pallidum [TP]) ** Cytomegalovirus (CMV) (Capture CMV) ** Multiplex (MPX) for: Hepatitis (Hep) B (hepatitis B virus [HBV]-PCR), HepC (hepatitis C virus [HCV]-PCR), HIV (HIV-PCR) ** Nucleic acid testing (NAT) for West Nile Virus (WNV-PCR) ** Trypanosoma cruzi (T. Cruzi) - enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (Chagas) * Laboratory testing for infectious disease will be performed at the time of initial donor assessment and must be performed within 30 days of the HSC collection; if multiple collections of HSC occur from the same donor, the infectious disease testing shall be performed within 30 days prior to each collection
• DONOR: The potential donor must be in good general health as determined by the evaluating medical provider using the University of Wisconsin (UW) Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Program guidelines set forth in the most current standard operating policies and procedures for hematopoietic donor evaluation and selection
• DONOR: Written informed consent
• DONOR: Must be 18 years of age or older

Exclusion Criteria

• Female patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding or of reproductive potential not willing to use an effective method of birth control during study treatment and for at least 12 months thereafter
