Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This Phase II clinical trial was designed for patients with hematologic malignancies in need of donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant, and have no HLA matched donor. Therefore It will test the efficacy of combining sirolimus, tacrolimus, antithymocyte globulin, and rituximab in preventing graft versus host disease in transplants from HLA Haploidentical and partially mismatched donors.

- description
- anti-thymocyte globulin: Infuse the first dose over a minimum of 6 hours, and subsequent doses over a minimum of 4 hours via a 0.22 micron in-line filter Rituximab: The total dose chosen for this protocol is 28 mg/kg divided in two doses (14 mg/kg on days -7 and +3). Initial infusion: Start rate of 50 mg/hour; For adults, Sirolimus will be administered at 12 mg orally loading dose on day -3, followed by 4 mg orally single morning daily dose (target serum level 3-12 ng/ml by HPLC). Tacrolimus will be administered intravenously at a dose of 0.03 mg/kg (ideal body weight) q 24h by continuous infusion starting on Day -3. Intravenous Tacrolimus will be discontinued once the patient starts eating and the drug will then be given orally at a dose of approximately 4 times the intravenous dose.
