Summary

This open-label, proof-of-principle two center cohort study will evaluate the ability of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to induce tolerance in recipients of deceased or live donor liver transplants (ASCOTT). A maximum of 10 participants will be entered at a minimum of 3 months post liver transplant. The participants will undergo autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT) to "re-educate" their immune systems to accept the graft without the need for long term immunosuppression (tolerance).

Interventions

DRUG

Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

Step 1: Participants will receive intravenous chemotherapy and cytokine-based treatment for mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) into the circulation, followed by collection using peripheral vein leukopheresis. The HSC graft product will undergo ex vivo purification with CD34 selection using Miltenyil CliniMACS and cryopreserved. Step 2: Intravenous busulphan, cyclophosphamide and anti-thymocyte globulin will be administered to participants to achieve immune ablation prior to the infusion of the participants' own thawed HSC graft product (HSC transplant). Routine supportive measures will be employed during the recovery from the chemotherapy and HSCT. Participants' immune suppression will be stopped at the time of immunoablative therapy and will be switched to everolimus which will be discontinued at 6 months post HSCT.
