Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if conditioning regimens that include personalized rabbit ATG (P-rATG) help the immune system recover sooner and decrease the chances of transplant-related side effects. Participants in this study will be children and adults who have acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and will receive a standard conditioning regimen to prepare the body for an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT). The conditioning regimen will include r-ATG, one of two combinations of chemotherapy, and possibly total body irradiation (TBI).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. proportion of patients who achieve CD4+IR [within 100 days of HCT]

    is defined at CD4+ > 50u/L at two consecutive measures within 100 days post allo-HCT.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall Survival (OS) [2 years]

    The duration of time between HCT and death due to any cause.
