Alemtuzumab, Fludarabine, and Busulfan Followed By Donor Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Young Patients With Hematologic Disorders · Source last updated 2017-09-28

Results reported by the registry submitting party. Population, time horizon, units and missing values must be read together.

Adverse events occurred during the study; they are not necessarily caused by treatment. Serious events are not interchangeable with severe/grade 3–4 events. These safety populations may differ from efficacy populations.

Single Arm - Transplant Pre-conditioning Per Study Protocol

All eligible patients received pre-transplant conditioning with Alemtuzumab, fludarabine and targeted busulfan followed by allogeneic transplant. The initial dose of busulfan was determined by performing PK (pharmacokinetics) analysis on a test dose of busulfan on the day prior to initiating conditioning. Based on the PK results a starting dose of busulfan was determined. A second PK study was done after the starting dose to ensure that the targeted dose was achieved. If it wasn't achieved, then a dose modification was made and a third PK study done.
