About this trial

Given the increased number of HLA-mismatched haploidentical transplantation with post-transplant cyclophosphamide performed each year and the high risk of infectious complications associated with this type of transplant, the investigators suggest that GM-CSF administration post-infusion of T-replete haploidentical stem cells and post-transplant cyclophosphamide can yield similar count recovery rates to G-CSF with a potential of lowering risk of infectious complications.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The number of patients who achieved neutrophil engraftment at 20 days after the initiation of treatment.

The aim of the study is to establish equivalent effectiveness of Sargramostim to a matched control cohort of G-CSF treated patients in time to achieve neutrophil (ANC \>500 x3 days) post infusion of HLA-mismatched peripheral blood haploidentical stem cells with post-transplant cyclophosphamide. Patients will be followed for 3 months following the initiation of treatment to see engraftment numbers at 20 days after initial treatment.

Time frame
3 months after initial treatment

Secondary outcomes

1

How many patients are still alive measured by overall survival at 12 months following the initiation of treatment.

To estimate overall survival

Time frame
12 months following initiation of treatment
2

How many patients have not relapsed measured by relapse rates at 12 months following the initiation of treatment.

To estimate relapse rates

Time frame
12 months following initiation of treatment
3

How many patients develop graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) measured by the incidence of GVHD at 12 months following initiation of treatment

To estimate incidence of GVHD

Time frame
12 months following initiation of treatment
4

How many patients have not relapsed measured by progression-free survival at 12 months following the initiation of treatment

To estimate non-relapse mortality

Time frame
12 months following initiation of treatment
