Phase I Study of Escalating Doses of Radiation Therapy Using Helical Tomotherapy in Combination With Fludarabine (FLU) and Melphalan (MEL) as a Preparative Regimen for Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) Transplantation in Patients With Advanced and Hematological Malignancies Who Are Not Eligible for Fully Myeloablative Regimen


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- To determine the maximum tolerated dose of intensity-modulated total marrow and lymph
node irradiation (TMLI) using helical tomotherapy in combination with a
reduced-intensity preparative regimen comprising fludarabine phosphate and melphalan in
patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for advanced,
relapsed or refractory hematological malignancies.

- To describe the toxicities of escalating doses of TMLI in these patients.

Secondary

- To describe the frequency of clinical response in patients treated with this regimen.

- To describe the frequency of primary and secondary engraftment failure in patients
treated with this regimen.

- To describe the time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment in patients treated with
this regimen.

- To describe the incidence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease in patients
treated with this regimen.

- To describe the overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.

- To describe the progression-free survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of intensity-modulated total marrow and lymph node
irradiation (TMLI).

- Intensity-modulated radiation therapy: Patients undergo TMLI to skeletal bone/marrow,
major lymph node chains, spleen, and liver using helical tomotherapy twice daily on
days -6 to -3.

- Reduced-intensity preparative regimen: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate IV on
days -6 to -2 and melphalan IV on day -1.

- Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT): Patients undergo allogeneic HSCT on day
0.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Histopathologically confirmed diagnosis of 1 of the following:

- Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

- Persistent initial disease after two induction attempts

- Relapse after one re-induction attempt (second relapse)

- Persistent disease after first relapse and initial re-induction attempt

- Not eligible for myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation due
to age (> 50 years), organ insufficiency, or significant comorbidity

- Patients 16-50 years of age must meet ≥ 1 of the following criteria:

- Ejection fraction 50-60% by MUGA scan and/or echocardiogram

- DLCO 50-75% of predicted

primary physician or principal investigator, would place the patient at
unacceptable risk from study regimen

- No evidence of cirrhosis

- No uncontrolled viral, bacterial, or fungal infection within the past 4 weeks

- No radiographic changes indicating pulmonary disease (e.g., pulmonary nodules,
infiltrates, or pleural effusion) unless cleared by pulmonary biopsy that shows no
evidence of active pulmonary disease

- No major medical or psychiatric disorder that would seriously compromise patient
tolerance of study regimen

PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
