  * Aggressive NHL that has relapsed following autologous HCT. Patients that respond to additional treatment for post-transplant relapse are eligible.
  * Aggressive NHL that does not achieve CR or PR with primary chemotherapy (i.e., primary induction failure).
  * Low-grade lymphoma refractory to standard therapy, including the following:

    1. small cell lymphocytic lymphoma,
    2. follicular lymphoma of grades 1 and 2 (follicular small cleaved and follicular mixed small and large cell lymphoma)
    3. marginal cell lymphoma, splenic lymphoma),
    4. lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma and
    5. other lymphomas not otherwise classifiable.
* Patients with low-grade lymphoma must have experienced progressive disease after receiving three or more of the following regimens:

  * alkylator-based therapy (cyclophosphamide/ vincristine/ prednisone) chlorambucil, monoclonal antibody based therapy (e.g., rituximab, Campath-1H, radiolabelled CD20+ antibodies);
  * nucleoside analog-based therapy (e.g., fludarabine, cladribine).)
* Patients with marginal zone lymphoma or gastric MALT type associated with Helicobacter pylori infection must have progressed after receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy as well as three or more regimens as described above
* Mantle cell, ages 18-75.
* Hodgkin's Disease, ages 18-75.

  * Relapsed or refractory disease after autologous transplant.
* Multiple Myeloma, ages 18-75

  * Recurrent disease after two medical therapies
  * Relapse following autologous transplant
* Myelofibrosis, age greater than 18 years
* Severe aplastic anemia (refractory to immunosuppressive therapy); age greater than 18 years

  * Patients with aplastic anemia must have marrow cellularity ≤ 10% plus 2 of the following:

    1. Absolute granulocyte count \<500/mm3
    2. Corrected reticulocyte count \<1%
    3. Untransfused platelet count \<20,000/mm3 on at least 2 occasions
    4. Hemoglobin \<9 g/dL (adults) or \< 8 g/dL (children) on at least 2 occasions
* Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria; age greater than 18 years.

* AST, ALT, total bilirubin \>3x upper limit of normal.
* Creatinine \> 2 or creatinine clearance \< 50mL/hr. If patient has a creatinine of \> 2 or creatinine clearance \< 50mL/hr and it is due to the disease process then the patient will not be excluded based on this.
* Fractional shortening by echocardiogram not within normal limits per institution or LVEF of \< 40 %.
* Pulmonary function: DLCO not within institutional normal limits or DLCO less than 45% of normal predicted, corrected for anemia
