Reduced Intensity Conditioning for Hemophagocytic Syndromes or Selected Primary Immune Deficiencies (BMT CTN 1204)

Inclusion Criteria

• Patient is ≥ 3 months and ≤ 45 years of age at time of enrollment.
• Meets criteria for one of the following immune disorders (2A-2F) requiring HCT:

2A. HLH or related disorder with indication for HCT [a. Inherited gene mutation associated with HLH: PRF1, UNC13D (MUNC13-2), STXBP2 (MUNC18-2), STX11, RAB27A (Griscelli syndrome, type 2), SH2D1A (XLP1), XIAP (XLP2), LYST (Chediak-Higashi syndrome) - OR - b. Meets clinical criteria for HLH, refractory to therapy according to HLH-94 or HLH-2004 (dexamethasone/etoposide), or recurrent episodes of hyper-inflammation - OR - c. Meets clinical criteria for HLH, without identified gene defects, with affected sibling - OR - decreased or absent NK cell function at the last evaluation, - OR - a history of CNS inflammation as evidenced by pleocytosis in CSF or MRI evidence of hyper-inflammation in the CNS]

2B. CAEBV: Patients with chronic EBV infection (CAEBV) with or without associated lymphoma (in complete remission) or active HLH. Note that this diagnosis is distinct from post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder/ EBV-associated lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD/LPD). [Patients must meet all of the following: a. Severe progressive illness, usually with fever, lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly that either began as primary EBV infection or was associated with markedly elevated antibody titers to EBV viral capsid antibody (≥ 1:5120) or early antigen (≥ 1:640), or markedly elevated EBV DNA in the blood; - AND - b. Infiltration of tissues (e.g., lymph nodes, liver, lungs, CNS, bone marrow, eye, skin) with lymphocytes; - AND - c. Elevated EBV DNA, RNA or proteins in affected tissues; - AND - d. The absence of HIV or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder]

2C. Chronic granulomatous disease with indication for HCT [a. Oxidative burst 40%; or LV shortening fraction (LVSF) > 26% by echocardiogram.

• Renal: Calculated or radioisotope Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) > 50 mL/min/1.73m^2
• Hepatic: Adequate liver function: serum conjugated (direct) bilirubin 50% of normal and Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) corrected for Hgb > 50% of normal. Patients unable to undergo PFTs should have stable respiratory status with SaO2 > 90% on a maximum of 2L/min supplemental oxygen.
• Signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

• Hematopoietic stem cell transplant within 6 months of enrollment.
• Uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infection (currently receiving appropriate antimicrobials and experiencing progression or no clinical improvement) at time of enrollment. We recognize that patients with CAEBV may have ongoing EBV viremia at the time of initiating transplant therapy, but other patients should have no uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infections at the time of enrollment (or prior to initiating the preparative regimen).
• Pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
• Alemtuzumab within 2 weeks of enrollment.
• History of prior or current malignancy, especially malignancies with a likelihood of relapse and progression, with the exception of (1) EBV-associated lymphomas related to immune deficiency or lymphomas associated with X-linked LPD in a good remission, as they are unlikely to relapse after treatment; (2) Resected basal cell carcinoma or treated cervical carcinoma in situ. Cancer treated with curative intent will not be allowed unless approved by the Protocol Officer or one of the Protocol Chairs.
