The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of using a reduced-intensity condition (RIC) regimen with umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT), double cord UCBT, matched unrelated donor (MUD) bone marrow transplant (BMT) or peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) in patients with non-malignant disorders that are amenable to treatment with hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). After transplant, subjects will be followed for late effects and for ongoing graft success.
Inclusion:
1. A 4/6, 5/6 or 6/6 HLA matched related or unrelated UCB unit available that will deliver a pre-cryopreservation total nucleated cell dose of ≥ 3 x 10e7 cells/kg, or double unit grafts, each cord blood unit delivering at least 2 x 10e7 cells/kg OR an 8 of 8 or 7 of 8 HLA allele level matched unrelated donor bone marrow or peripheral blood progenitor graft.
2. Adequate organ function as measured by:
1. Creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL and creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min/1.73 m2.
2. Hepatic transaminases (ALT/AST) ≤ 4 x upper limit of normal (ULN).
3. Adequate cardiac function by echocardiogram or radionuclide scan (shortening fraction \> 26% or ejection fraction \> 40% or \> 80% of normal value for age).
4. Pulmonary evaluation testing demonstrating CVC or FEV1/FVC of ≥ 50% of predicted for age and/or resting pulse oximeter ≥ 92% on room air or clearance by the pediatric or adult pulmonologist. For adult patients DLCO (corrected for hemoglobin) should be ≥ 50% of predicted if the DLCO can be obtained.
3. Written informed consent and/or assent according to FDA guidelines.
4. Negative pregnancy test if pubertal and/or menstruating.
5. HIV negative.
