Brief summary: The investigators intend to utilize reduced intensity conditioning and allogeneic stem cell transplant from EBV positive HLA matched sibling or unrelated adult donor combined with post AlloSCT allogeneic donor derived LMP specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) infusions in EBV positive patients with poor risk Hodgkin Lymphoma. One of three reduced intensity conditioning regimens predetermined at each institutional center of the Childhood, Adolescent and Young Adult Lymphoma Cell Therapy Consortium (LCTC) will be utilized for related or matched unrelated adult donor allogeneic transplant followed by donor LMP specific CTL infusion for three doses post AlloSCT. The investigators hypothesize that the addition of donor derived LMP specific CTLs will be safe and feasible.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Patient must be 45 years of age or less.

Patient or the patient's legally authorized guardian must be fully informed about their illness and the investigational nature of the study protocol (including foreseeable risks and possible side effects), and must sign an informed consent in accordance with the institutional policies approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Patients should have been off other investigational therapy for one month prior to entry in this study.

Patient must have adequate organ function as below

Adequate renal function defined as:

Serum creatinine \<2.0 x normal, or Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR \> 40 ml/min/m2 or \>60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or an equivalent GFR as determined by the institutional normal range

Adequate liver function defined as:

Total bilirubin \<2.0 x normal; and SGOT (AST) or SGPT (ALT) \<5.0 x normal

Adequate cardiac function defined as:

Shortening fraction of \>27% by echocardiogram

Hodgkin Lymphoma with either of the following:

Primary induction failure (failure to achieve initial CR) and/or primary refractory disease.First relapse ; Early relapse (within 12 months off therapy) (excluding those who received no therapy or radiation therapy only for initial therapy); Late relapse (greater than 12 months off therapy). Only patients with recurrent Stage III or IV disease and/or those with B symptoms at relapse (all other late relapses are excluded); Second relapse; Third relapse.

History of prior ablative auto HSCT or ineligible for an ablative auto HSCT or ≥25% residual disease after at least two reinduction chemotherapy cycles.

EBV seropositive IgG HLA matched family or unrelated donor (MUD) HLA matched family donor (6/6 or 5/6) or matched unrelated adult donor (MUD) (7/8 or 8/8) All patients entered into the study ideally will have tumor tissue from the original diagnostic specimen and/or relapse reviewed centrally for confirmation of Hodgkin lymphoma. If no specimen is available, local pathology report documenting EBV positivity is acceptable. Appropriate immunophenotyping to confirm the diagnosis will be performed. In addition, in situ hybridization for EBV (LMP1, and/or EBER positivity) will be performed. All central morphologic analysis and immunohistochemical/insitu hybridization staining will be performed in the laboratory of Sherrie Perkins and Rodney Miles at the University of Utah.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with HD with 4th or greater CR, PR, and/or SD are ineligible. Patients with rapidly progressive disease (PD) unresponsive to reinduction chemo, radio, or immunotherapy are ineligible.

EBV negative Hodgkin Lymphoma. Patients who don't have an eligible donor (outlined in 7.0) are ineligible. Women who are pregnant are ineligible. Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing age is required.
