haplo peripheral blood sct in gvhd prevention

Conditions: GVHD; AML; ALL; MDS; MPN; CMML; Hodgkin Lymphoma; Non Hodgkin Lymphoma; Blood Stem Cell Transplant Failure; Graft Vs Host Disease; Acute Myeloid Leukemia; Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia; Myelodysplastic Syndromes; Myeloproliferative Disorder; Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia; Chemosensitive Hodgkin Lymphoma

Summary: this research study is studying the rgi-2001 for preventing graft-vs-host disease (gvhd) in people with acute myeloid leukemia (aml), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all), myelodysplastic syndrome (mds), myeloproliferative disorders (mpn), chronic myelomonocytic leukemic (cmml), chemosensitive hodgkin lymphoma (hl), or non-hodgkin lymphoma (nhl).who will have a blood stem cell transplantation. * gvhd is a condition in which cells from the donor's tissue attack the organs. * rgi-2001 is an investigational treatment

* this is a pilot study in subjects undergoing reduced-intensity haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation who will receive graft-versus-host disease prevention with post-transplant cyclophosphamide, followed by sirolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and rgi-2001. * the research study procedures include screening for eligibility and study treatment including evaluations and follow up visits. * the standard of care drugs of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, melphalan, radiation, sirolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil are all fda approved. * eligible participants will be placed in 1 of 2 groups, per physicians discretion: * regimen #1 : * before stem cell transplant:fludarabine + cyclophosphamide + radiation * after stem cell transplant: cyclophosphamide + sirolimus +mycophenolate mofetil + rgi-2001 * regimen #2 * before stem cell transplant: fludarabine + melphalan + radiation * after stem cell transplant: cyclophosphamide + sirolimus +mycophenolate mofetil + rgi-2001 * a total of 20 participants will be enrolled to this trial * the u.s. food and drug administration (fda) has not approved rgi-2001 as a treatment for any disease.

Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: * men or women ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years old * diagnosis of hematological malignancy: * acute myeloid leukemia (aml) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) in morphologic complete remission * myelodysplastic syndrome (mds), myeloproliferative disorders (mpn), or chronic myelomonocytic leukemic (cmml) with \< 5% blasts in blood or bone marrow * chemosensitive hodgkin lymphoma (hl) or non-hodgkin lymphoma (nhl) * patients must be undergoing haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, defined as 1st or 2nd degree relative with at least 5/10 matching at hla-a, -b, -c, dr, and dq. * ecog performance status ≤2 * patients with adequate physical function as measured by: * cardiac: left ventricular ejection fraction at rest must be ≥ 40%, or shortening fraction \>25% * hepatic: * bilirubin ≤ 2.5 mg/dl, except for patients with gilbert's syndrome or hemolysis * alt, ast, and alkaline phosphatase \< 5 x uln * renal: serum creatinine within normal range, or if serum creatinine is outside normal range, then renal function (measured or estimated creatinine clearance or gfr) ≥ 40ml/min/1.73m2 * pulmonary: dlco (corrected for hemoglobin), fev1 and fvc ≥ 50% predicted * ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document exclusion criteria: * prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. (patients may have received a prior autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant.) * participants who are receiving any other investigational agents within 14 days prior to rgi-2001 dosing. thus, participants must stop investigational agents by day -9 prior to transplant. * uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, symptomatic congestive heart failure, recent myocardial infarction or stroke, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. * patients with active or uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infection(s) requiring systemic therapy. * planned use of prophylactic donor lymphocyte infusion (dli) therapy. * pregnant and breast-feeding women are ineligible because they are not eligible for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. * hiv-positive participants and patients with active hepatitis b or c are ineligible
