About
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of donor lymphocyte infusion when given together with reduced intensity conditioning regimen before partially matched donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with stage IIB-IV mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome. Giving chemotherapy and low-dose total-body irradiation followed by high-dose cyclophosphamide before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft-versus-host disease). Removing the T-cells from the donor cells and giving them before transplant may stop this from happening. Additionally, giving tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil before and after transplant may also stop this from happening.
Full description
PRIMARY OBJECTVES:
I. To evaluate regimen related toxicity, engraftment and graft versus host disease (GVHD) in the first 100 days with new reduced intensity haploidentical regimen protocol, including fludarabine (fludarabine phosphate), low dose total body irradiation, and cyclophosphamide.
II. To determine an effective donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) dose that provides successful engraftment without causing GVHD.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess myeloid and lymphoid engraftment rates of patients undergoing treatment on this regimen.
II. To determine the incidence and severity of GVHD in patients undergoing treatment on this regimen using a combination of tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) as GVHD prophylaxis.
III. To examine progression free survival and overall survival in patients with cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) undergoing treatment on this regimen.
IV. To assess the pace of lymphoid recovery in this patient population.
OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of DLI.
REDUCED INTENSITY CONDITIONING: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days -11 to -8 and undergo total body irradiation twice daily (BID) on day -7. Patients also receive donor cluster of differentiation (CD)3+ enriched T lymphocyte infusion on day -6 and high-dose cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days -3 to -2.
TRANSPLANT: Patients undergo allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) on day 0.
GVHD PROPHYLAXIS: Beginning on day -1, patients receive tacrolimus IV with taper (drug wean) by day 60 and mycophenolate mofetil IV BID on days -1 to 28 in the absence of GVHD.
After completion of treatment, patients are followed up periodically.

Inclusion criteria
Stage IIB-IV mycosis fungoides and sezary syndrome who have failed at least one standard systemic therapy or are not candidates for standard therapy.
Patient should have a responsive skin disease including complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR) (close to CR; 75%-99% clearance of skin disease from baseline without new tumors (T3) in patients with T1, T2 or T4 only skin disease) and should not have visceral organ or lymph node involvement prior to transplantation.
Patients must have a related donor who is a two or more allele mismatch at the HLA-A; B; C; DR and DQ loci. Patients who have sibling donors with a one antigen mismatch due to recombination will not be enrolled in this protocol.
Patients must have adequate organ function:

Patients must be willing to use contraception if they have childbearing potential
Able to give informed consent, or their legally authorized representative can give informed consent.
Exclusion criteria
Performance status of < 80% (Karnofsky)
HIV positive
Active involvement of the central nervous system with malignancy
Psychiatric disorder that would preclude patients from signing an informed consent
Pregnancy, or unwillingness to use contraception if they are have childbearing potential.
Patients with life expectancy of < 6 months for reasons other than their underlying hematologic/oncologic disorder or complications there from.
Patients who have received alemtuzumab within 8 weeks of transplant admission, or who have recently received horse or rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and have ATG levels of > 2 μgm/ml.
Patients who cannot receive cyclophosphamide
