Brief Summary
Background: High-risk blood cancers (leukemias and lymphomas) often come back after treatment, and many cannot be cured with chemotherapy alone. These cancers may be treated and potentially cured in 2 ways: (1) Bone marrow transplant (allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, or alloHCT) gives immune and blood stem cells from a donor. These new cells can attack the cancer and also grow into healthy blood. (2) Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy takes immune cells and changes them in a lab to better recognize and target certain cancers. But these 2 treatments are not usually given at the same time. Objective: To test alloHCT and CAR-T cell therapy, used together, in people with high-risk blood cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 to 75 years with an aggressive blood cancer that has a protein on the surface called CD19. A healthy related donor aged 12 years or older is also needed; this donor may be a parent or child or may be some siblings or even extended family members, but has to be half-matched at something called the HLA (human leukocyte antigen). Design: Participants will be screened. They will have imaging scans, blood tests, and tests of their heart and lung function. They will have eye and dental exams. They may have fluid drawn from around their spinal cord (spinal tap) and tissue taken from inside a bone (bone marrow biopsy). Healthy donors will provide bone marrow, immune cells, and about 9 tablespoons of blood for both the recipient s treatment and for research. They will also provide stool, saliva, and oral swabs just for research. Recipient participants will stay in the hospital for 4 to 6 weeks. They will be given drugs over 6 days to prepare for the cell therapies. Both the donor bone marrow cells and CAR-T-cells will be given through a tube inserted into a vein. They will receive drugs to reduce complications after the treatments. Participants will remain within a 1-hour drive of the hospital for 2 to 3 months after they leave the hospital. They will have frequent visits during that time. They will continue to have periodic follow-up visits for 5 years. ...
Eligibility Criteria
-INCLUSION CRITERIA - Recipient 1. Participants with high or very high-risk hematologic malignancies, as defined by the revised Disease Risk Index (DRI), or malignancy that remains persistently MRD+ (by flow cytometry, cytogenetics, FISH, PCR, or NGS) on most recently assessed disease specimen (within 2 months of initiating conditioning). 2. Hematologic malignancy must be CD19+ (uniform expression on immunohistochemistry or \>= 80% on flow cytometry) as confirmed by CD19 IHC assay (BT51E) or flow cytometry (BD QuantiBRITE(TM) Beads PE Fluorescence Quantitation Kit). (Participants do not have to have refused or lack access to commercial anti-CD19 CAR-T-cell therapies since this study focuses on the integration of CAR-T cells and HCT and not specifically the CAR-T cells themselves; furthermore the construct used to manufacture this product is the same as used in a current commercial product, but developed from a new batch and with a similar but not identical manufacturing process.) 3.
