Treatment of High Risk, Inherited Lysosomal and Peroxisomal Disorders by Reduced-Intensity Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation and Low-Dose Total Body Irradiation With Marrow Boosting by Volumetric-Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT)

This study is designed to test the ability to achieve donor hematopoietic engraftment while
maintaining low rates of transplant-related mortality (TRM) in patients with high-risk
lysosomal and peroxisomal disorders using a novel conditioning regimen for hematopoietic cell
transplantation (HCT). After a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen using
volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-delivered low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) with
highly conformal marrow boosting, patients will be transplanted using either a related or
unrelated allograft. The cell source may be marrow, peripheral blood or cord blood based on
donor availability.

The conditioning regimen consists of alemtuzumab (Campath-1H), clofarabine, melphalan, and
VMAT-delivered low-dose TBI with boosted marrow irradiation. Additional graft-versus-host
disease prophylaxis consists of mycophenolate mofetil and cyclosporine.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD): Patients from 0-55 years of age diagnosed with ALD as
determined by very long chain fatty acid testing will be eligible for this protocol if
they have evidence of cerebral or cerebellar disease based on MRI testing,

- Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD): Patients from 0-55 years of age diagnosed with MLD
as determined by arylsulfatase A activity.

- Globoid Cell Leukodystrophy (GLD): Patients from 0-55 years of age diagnosed with GLD
as determined by galactocerebrosidase activity will be eligible for this protocol

- Wolman's disease, GM1 gangliosidosis, Tay Sachs disease, Sanfilippo syndrome, Sandhoff
disease or other inherited metabolic diseases including but not limited to I-cell
disease (mucolipidosis II): Patients who are determined to be sufficiently advanced or
high risk based on the following reasons:

- Symptomatic disease, as based on neurologic examination or evidence of
deterioration based on subsequent neuropsychologic evaluations.

- Evidence of an expected poor outcome based on genetic testing or a prior family
history of aggressive disease.

- Other metabolic disorders, including but not limited to I-cell disease, that are
deemed to be high-risk for a poor outcome with a standard transplant regimen due
to anticipated toxicity based on experience gained at the University of Minnesota
or other centers.

- Donor Availability

- Transplantation using sufficiently matched related donors (such as matched
siblings) or unrelated donors will be considered. Both granulocyte-colony
stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulated peripheral blood grafts and bone marrow
grafts will be considered, although bone marrow will be the priority.

- Cord blood grafts, both related and unrelated, are also eligible. As this
protocol will use a reduced intensity regimen, this protocol will use the current
recommendations of the University of Minnesota for choosing cord blood grafts. If
a single cord blood unit cell dose is insufficient, double cord transplantation
should be considered if sufficiently matched cord blood units are available. The
priority of choosing cord blood donors is based on the current institutional
recommendations.

- Exclusion of Metabolic Disorder Carrier Status from related donor and unrelated
cord blood grafts as appropriate for primary disease.

- Adequate Organ Function - Measured within 30 days of study enrollment

- Signed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- Inability to receive total body irradiation (TBI) with marrow boosting per protocol
guidelines as determined by the Radiation Oncologist

- Pregnant - Menstruating females must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14
days of treatment start.

- Advanced Disease Exclusion: Following evaluation, if a consensus of the members of the
Inherited Metabolic and Storage Disease Program is that a patient is too advanced to
benefit in a measurable and meaningful way from transplant, this will be communicated
to the family, and transplant will not be offered.
