Summary

One of two different doses of thymoglobulin will allow bone marrow engraftment with minimal Graft-versus-Host Disease and allow adequate immune response to allow the transplanted stem cells to replace the tumor cells.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients with hematological malignancies for which allogeneic stem cell transplantation indicated including non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), multiple myeloma (MM), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), Hodgkin lymphoma (HD), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
  • Patients with HLA compatible related or unrelated stem cell donor, willing and able to serve as an allogenic HSC donor. Unrelated donors have to be matched at HLA-A, B, C and DRB1 loci. A single locus mismatch will be tolerated in the event a more closely matched donor is not available.
  • Patients age >/=40 to </=70 with an ECOG performance status < 2
  • Patients between 18 and 40 years of age will be eligible only if they have co-morbidities precluding conventional allogeneic transplantation with full intensity myeloablative conditioning
  • Adequate cardiac, pulmonary, renal and hepatic function for transplant
  • Negative serology for HIV
  • Negative serum pregnancy test
  • Patients who have received therapeutic radiation to a localized field will be eligible, provided critical structure tolerance doses have not been exceeded
  • Patients who have had prior myeloablative autologous transplant will be eligible

Exclusion Criteria

  • Evidence of uncontrolled viral, fungal, bacterial infection
  • Evidence of active meningeal or CNS disease
  • Prior therapy with rabbit ATG, prior treatment with equine ATG is allowed if more than 3 months ago
  • Breast feeding mothers are excluded
