Summary

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood
units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other
indications.

Objectives

Principal Investigators:

The principal investigators (PIs) will be transplant physicians at all participating U.S.
transplant centers.

Study Design:

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood
units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other
indications.

Primary Objective:

The primary objective of this study is to examine the incidence of neutrophil recovery of
=500/mm3 after cord blood transplantation in a multi-institution setting using CBUs that
are not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensed.

Secondary Objectives:

In patients receiving a non-licensed CBU:

- Assess incidence of transmission of infection

- Assess incidence of serious infusion reaction

- Determine 1 year overall survival after cord blood transplantation

- Assess cumulative incidence of acute graft vs. host disease (GVHD) grades II to IV
and grades III to IV

- Assess cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD

- Determine platelet engraftment of >20,000 mcL and >50,000 mcL

Eligibility

  1. Disorders affecting the hematopoietic system that are inherited, acquired, or result from myeloablative treatment
  2. Signed informed consent (and signed assent, if applicable) obtained prior to study enrollment
  3. Pediatric and adult patients of any age
