Summary

Background:

\- Stem cell transplantation from a partially matched donor can lead to graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Researchers want to learn how to improve these transplantations.

Objective:

\- To see if very low doses of Interleukin-2 after a partially matched transplantation prevent GVHD.

Eligibility:

* Recipients: age 18 65, with certain bone marrow or lymphatic system diseases and an available family member with partial tissue match.
* Donors: age 18 80.

Design:

* Recipients will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and many tests including blood and tissue tying.
* Donors will be screened with medical history, physical exam, blood tests and tissue typing.
* Recipients will stay in the hospital 3 6 weeks.
* All participants will have apheresis. Blood is drawn from one arm, run through a machine that collects white blood cells, then returned into the other arm.
* Recipients will have:
* Intravenous (IV) line placed under the skin and into a neck vein, to stay throughout transplant and recovery. They may also have a catheter inserted for collecting immune cells.
* Bone marrow sample taken by needle. They will have 3 more after transplant.
* Donors will have:
* Filgrastim injected once daily for 5 6 days.
* Stem and immune cells collected by another apheresis.
* Recipients will get:
* Eight 30-minute doses of radiation, sitting at a machine.
* Donor immune cells by IV, 6 days before the transplant day.
* Chemotherapy drugs by IV.

* After transplant, recipients will give self-injections of very low doses of Interleukin-2 once daily for about 12 weeks.
* Before and after transplant, recipients will get medicine to suppress the immune system and antibiotics to prevent infections
* Recipients must stay near NIH for 3 6 months after transplant.
* All recipients and donors will have 3 years of follow-up.
