haploid allogeneic transplant using the clinimacs system

Conditions: Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) - Relapsed, Primary Refractory Disease or Poor Risk Factors; Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) - Accelerated or Second Chronic Phase; Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) - High and Intermediate Risk; Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL); Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) - Refractory

Summary: to assess the proportion of patients with donor neutrophil engraftment within 30 days of allogeneic transplant. to assess the incidence of acute gvhd during the first 100 days after transplantation.

to assess the proportion of patients with donor neutrophil engraftment within 30 days of allogeneic transplant; assess the incidence of acute gvhd during the first 100 days after transplantation; and assess platelet engraftment, graft failure, chronic gvhd, clinical safety, and devise performance.
