A Phase II Study of Reduced Dose Post Transplantation Cyclophosphamide As GvHD Prophylaxis in Adult Patients with Hematologic Malignancies Receiving HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Reduced Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in patients with hematologic malignancies after receiving an HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor (MMUD) . The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does a reduced dose of PTCy reduce the occurrence of infections in the first 100 days after transplant? * Does a reduced dose of PTCy maintain the same level of protection against Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) as the standard dose of PTCy?

Diagnosis of primary myelofibrosis with risk features making them eligible for HCT. Myelofibrosis secondary to essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, or MDS with grade 4 fibrosis are also eligible.

Donors who do not meet one or more of the donor screening requirements may donate under urgent medical need. 6. Must agree to donate PBSC. 7.

HIV-infected patients on effective anti-retroviral therapy (ART) with undetectable viral load within 6 months are eligible for this trial. Patients with well controlled HIV are eligible provided resistance panels are negative, the patient is compliant with ART, and their disease remains well controlled. Donor Exclusion Criteria: 1. Donor unwilling or unable to donate. 2.
