Brief summary:
RATIONALE: Cyclosporine eye drops may prevent graft-versus-host disease of the eye in patients who have undergone donor stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer or bone marrow failure disorder.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying how well cyclosporine eye drops work in preventing graft-versus-host disease of the eye in patients who have undergone donor stem cell transplant for hematologic cancer or bone marrow failure disorder.

Detailed description:
OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* To assess the efficacy of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion (Restasis®) in the prevention of ocular graft-versus-host disease in patients who have undergone allogeneic stem cell transplantation for hematologic malignancies or bone marrow failure disorders.

Secondary

* To correlate the Ocular Surface Disease Index with clinical ophthalmologic examination.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age, type of transplant (related vs unrelated), and intensity of transplant (ablative vs other). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

* Arm I: Patients receive cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion (Restasis®) drops in each eye twice daily for up to 1 year after transplant.
* Arm II: Patients receive placebo ophthalmic drops in each eye twice daily for up to 1 year after transplant.

Patients in both arms may also receive artificial tear drops at least twice daily as clinically necessary.

Arms: arm 1: Patients receive cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion (Restasis®) drops in each eye twice daily for up to 1 year after transplant. arm 2: Patients receive placebo ophthalmic drops in each eye twice daily for up to 1 year after transplant.
Interventions: intervention 1: cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion intervention 2: placebo
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Given as eye drops intervention 2: Given as eye drops
