About

multicentric interventional biomedical research phase II, prospective, non-randomized evaluating a haploidentical marrow transplants after reduced-intensity conditioning and prevention of GvHD based on cyclophosphamide administration post transplantation in patients with severe sickle cell disease.

Full description

Sickle cell disease is a severe disease with frequent occurrence of painful crises and progressive installation of a multi organ injuries. Despite the progress in its management, particularly since the introduction of hydroxycarbamide, the median age of death in sickle cell patients was about 40 years in a recent US study. Severe forms resistant to hydroxyurea or cerebral vasculopathy require transfusion programs throughout susceptible to risks of iron overload and alloimmunization. The bone marrow transplantation cures almost 95% of children and adolescents transplant from an HLA-identical siblings. In patients without HLA-identical donor, interesting results have been reported in haploidentical transplants marrow without ex vivo T cell depletion taken after non myeloablative conditioning regimen and GvHD prevention with cyclophosphamide high dose injection after bone marrow transplant . This approach performed in 14 patients was effective to cure 50% of the patients and 50% have rejected the transplant . No death or severe GvHD were related to the procedure.

DREPHAPLO protocol aims to evaluate that approach in a population of sickle cell patients with severe complications of the disease, bringing direct benefit to patients with a cure of the disease in at least half of them.

Description:
All the included patient will receive an haploidentical bone marrow transplant with the following protocol concerning the conditioning and GvHD prevention Conditioning * THYMOGLOBULINE : 0.5mg/kg at D-9 and 2 mg/kg at D-8 and D-7 * THIOTEPA: 10mg/kg/j at D-7 * CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE (Endoxan®):14.5mg/kg/j at D-6 and D-5 * FLUDARABINE (Fludara®): 30mg/m2 per Day from D-6 to D-2 * TBI : 2GY : D -1 Graft : Injection at D0 of G-CSF-stimulated bone marrow transplant. Prophylaxis of GvHD * CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE (Endoxan®): 50mg/Kg per Day from D+3 to D+4 * Sirolimus and MycophénolateMofétil (MMP) from D+5. In the absence of acute GvHD (aGvHD), stop of MMP to D35 and pursuit of sirolimus 1 year after the graft.
