NYMC-571: Myeloablative Conditioning, Prophylactic Defibrotide and Haplo AlloSCT for Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a follow-up trial to NYMC 526 (NCT01461837) to assess the safety, efficacy and toxicity of administering Defibrotide prophylaxis for high-risk sickle cell or beta thalassemia patients undergoing a familial haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation with CD34 enrichment and T-cell addback. This patient population historically has a risk of developing sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS) and Defibrotide has demonstrated efficacy in treatment of SOS. The Funding Source is FDA OOPD.

Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Defibrotide prophylaxis defibrotide will be given prior to and during myeloablative immunotherapy conditioning (MAIC) followed by familial haploidentical (FHI) allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AlloSCT) with CD34 enrichment and t-cell addback in patients with high-risk sickle cell disease or beta thalassemia to reduced the risk and rate of the development of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS). |
Drug: Defibrotide
defibrotide will be given prophylactically prior to AlloSCT to determine if it decreases the incidence of SOS in this high risk population, and determine that it is safe and feasible to give along with myeloimmunoablative therapy and allogeneic transplant.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- All patients will be monitored for known and unknown side effects of defibrotide with daily physical exams while in the hospital and then as needed in addition to daily laboratory values including chemistries, hematology labs as needed [100 days]
Patients will be given Defibrotide prophylaxis starting 10 days before the stem cell infusion at 6.25 mg/kg IV q6h and continue through Day +21.
- All patients will be monitored for the development of SOS. [1 year]
All patients will get daily lab values while in patients and then as needed to monitor for elevation in liver function tests and other abnormal chemistry or hematology values. Imaging on the liver will be performed as needed to determine if they develop SOS with defibrotide.
