About this trial
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of a radioactive agent linked to an antibody (211At-BC8-B10) followed by donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that has come back (recurrent) or isn't responding to treatment (refractory). 211At-BC8-B10 is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving chemotherapy and total body irradiation before a stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can attack the body's normal cells, called graft versus host disease. Giving cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus after a transplant may stop this from happening.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
AML, ALL, or MPAL in first remission with evidence of measurable residual disease (MRD) by flow cytometry;
AML, ALL, or MPAL beyond first remission (i.e., having relapsed at least one time after achieving remission in response to a treatment regimen);
AML, ALL, or MPAL representing primary refractory disease (i.e., having failed to achieve remission at any time following one or more prior treatment regimens);
AML evolved from myelodysplastic or myeloproliferative syndromes;
Disqualifiers
Patients may not have symptomatic coronary artery disease and may not be on cardiac medications for anti-arrhythmic or inotropic effects.
Left ventricular ejection fraction < 45%.
Corrected diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) < 35% or receiving supplemental continuous oxygen. When pulmonary function tests (PFTs) cannot be obtained, the 6-minute walk test (6MWT, also known as exercise oximetry) will be used: Any patient with oxygen saturation on room air of < 89% during a 6MWT will be excluded
Liver abnormalities: fulminant liver failure, cirrhosis of the liver with evidence of portal hypertension, alcoholic hepatitis, esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, uncorrectable hepatic synthetic dysfunction as evidenced by prolongation of the prothrombin time, ascites related to portal hypertension, bacterial or fungal liver abscess, biliary obstruction, chronic viral hepatitis, or symptomatic biliary disease.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of dose limiting toxicity (DLT)
DLT is defined as a grade III/IV regimen-related toxicity (Bearman scale). The maximum tolerated dose will be defined as the dose of 211\^At-BC8-B10 used in combination with the reduced-intensity hematopoietic cell transplantation conditioning regimen that is associated with a grade III/IV regimen-related toxicity or true DLT rate of 25%. The data, thereby generating a dose-response curve based on the observed toxicity rate at the various dose levels visited. Based on this fitted model, the maximum tolerated dose is estimated to be the dose that is associated with a toxicity rate of 25%.
Secondary outcomes
Achievement of remission
Rate of engraftment
