Summary
This trial is giving IMRT with chemotherapy to patients with relapsed or refractory ALL or AML before a donor stem cell transplant. The aim is to find out the side effects of this treatment and the best dose of IMRT to give, as well as how well the IMRT and chemotherapy work in treating patients.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have not responded to initial treatments. They must have a suitable sibling or matched unrelated donor for stem cell transplant, good kidney and liver function, acceptable heart health, and no previous bone marrow transplants. Pregnant individuals cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The study tests whether using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with chemotherapy drugs etoposide and cyclophosphamide before a stem cell transplant from a donor can effectively treat relapsed/refractory ALL or AML without causing the immune system to reject the new cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include damage to organs near treated areas due to radiation, increased risk of infections after transplantation, reactions related to chemotherapy such as nausea and hair loss, and possible complications from the body's reaction against donor cells.
