Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation for Multiple Myeloma and Myelofibrosis

This phase II trial studies how well busulfan, fludarabine, donor stem cell transplant, and
cyclophosphamide in treating patients with multiple myeloma or myelofibrosis. Drugs used in
chemotherapy, such as busulfan, fludarabine, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to
stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing,
or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant
helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem
cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the
patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood
cells, and platelets. Giving busulfan and fludarabine before and cyclophosphamide after donor
stem cell may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma or myelofibrosis.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate non-relapse mortality (NRM) up to day +100.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate non-relapse mortality (NRM) up to day +365. II. To evaluate the incidence of
acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD up to day +365 post-transplant.

III. To evaluate the overall survival and disease free survival up to 1 year. IV. To evaluate
clinical response and molecular response (complete response and partial response) up to 1
year.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive busulfan intravenously (IV) over 2 hours and fludarabine IV over 30 minutes
on days -5 to -2. Patients undergo hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) on day 0.
Patients then receive cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes on days 3 and 4.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1 year.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1

primary/secondary myelofibrosis (MF)

anti-myeloma therapy which may include single or planned tandem autologous
transplant) after primary therapy that included and autologous HSCT; OR

- Later stage; OR

- High risk factors defined by the presence of any one of the following detected at
any time prior to enrollment: deletion of chromosome 13 by conventional
cytogenetics, hypodiploidy, abnormality in chromosome 1 (1q amplification or 1p
deletion), t(4;14), t(14;16), t(14;20) or deletion of 17p by fluorescence in situ
hybridization (FISH) or conventional karyotyping; high risk criteria based on
commercially available gene expression profiling; OR

- Extramedullary disease, plasma cell leukemia or high lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)

- Patients must have histologically documented myelofibrosis (MF)

- Patients with Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS) plus
intermediate stage 2 or higher risk MF; OR

- Subset of intermediate stage 1 patients; defined by:

- Presence of any of the following mutations: ASXL1, SRSF2, EZH2, IDH1/2; OR

- Severe thrombocytopenia, severe anemia, high peripheral blood blasts
percentage; OR

or >= 3 abnormalities

conforms to federal and institutional guidelines

to use medically accepted methods of contraception

- Male and female subjects not willing to agree to medically accepted methods of
contraception
