Study of Itacitinib for the Prophylaxis of Graft-Versus-Host Disease and Cytokine Release Syndrome After T-cell Replete Haploidentical Peripheral Blood Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Inclusion Criteria

Patients must meet the following criteria within 30 days prior to Day 0 unless otherwise noted.

• Diagnosis of a hematological malignancy listed below:
• Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) in complete morphological remission (based on International Working Group (IWG) Criteria)
• Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in complete morphological remission (MRD negative, based on IWG Criteria)
• Myelodysplastic syndrome with ≤ 5% blasts in bone marrow.
• Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) or Hodgkin's disease (HD) in 2nd or greater complete or partial remission.
• Planned treatment is myeloablative or reduced intensity conditioning followed by T Cell-replete peripheral blood haploidentical donor transplantation
• Available human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical donor who meets the following criteria:
• Blood-related family member, including (but not limited to) sibling, offspring, cousin, nephew, or parent. Younger donors should be prioritized.
• At least 18 years of age
• HLA-haploidentical donor/recipient match by at least low-resolution typing per institutional standards.
• In the investigator's opinion, is in general good health, and medically able to tolerate leukapheresis required for harvesting hematopoietic stem cells (HSC).
• No active hepatitis.
• Negative for human T-cell lymphotrophic virus (HTLV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
• Not pregnant.
• Safety Lead-In Phase: For the first three patients, the donor must consent to a second product collection should it prove necessary.
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2
• Adequate organ function as defined below:
• Total bilirubin must be within normal range at baseline
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)(SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) ≤ 3.0 x institutional upper limit of normal (IULN).
• Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x IULN OR creatinine clearance ≥ 45 mL/min/1.73 m^2 by Cockcroft-Gault Formula.
• Oxygen saturation ≥ 90% on room air.
• Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 40%.
• Forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥ 40% predicted, diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCOc) ≥ 40% predicted. If DLCO is 35 days after transplant.
• Must not receive antithymocyte globulin as part of pre-transplant conditioning regimens.
• Currently receiving or has received any investigational drugs within the 14 days prior to the first dose of study drug (Day -3).
• Pregnant and/or breastfeeding.
• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, autoimmune disease, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, unstable cardiac arrhythmias, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
• Immunosuppressive doses of steroids. Subjects with steroids for adrenal insufficiency will not be excluded.

Additional Inclusion Criteria Under Amendment 5

• Five subjects with myelofibrosis will be enrolled in the expansion phase.
• Three patients whose donors fail to collect the target number of CD34+ cells and the treating physician choses to move forward with the haplo-HCT will be enrolled in the expansion phase.
