Summary

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood
units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other
indications.

Objectives

Principal Investigators:

The principal investigators (PIs) will be transplant physicians at all participating U.S.
transplant centers.

Study Design:

This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood
units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other
indications.

Primary Objective:

The primary objective of this study is to examine the incidence of neutrophil recovery of
=500/mm3 after cord blood transplantation in a multi-institution setting using CBUs that
are not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensed.

Secondary Objectives:

In patients receiving a non-licensed CBU:

- Assess incidence of transmission of infection

- Assess incidence of serious infusion reaction

- Determine 1 year overall survival after cord blood transplantation

- Assess cumulative incidence of acute graft vs. host disease (GVHD) grades II to IV
and grades III to IV

- Assess cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD

- Determine platelet engraftment of >20,000 mcL and >50,000 mcL
