Must not have
Active central nervous system (CNS) disease in patients with a history of CNS malignancy
Active, uncontrolled infection, decompensated congestive heart failure or pulmonary insufficiency requiring oxygen supplementation
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up 180 days

Summary
This trial is for leukemia, lymphoma or myelodysplastic syndrome patients who will receive cord blood that has been changed in the laboratory to add sugar. The goal is to see if it is safe and if the cord blood cells find their way to the bone marrow faster.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 1-80 with certain blood cancers or bone marrow disorders, who haven't found a perfect donor match. They must be in specific stages of their disease and have functioning major organs. Pregnant women, those with HIV/HBV/HCV, or recent investigational drug use are excluded.
What is being tested?
Researchers are testing if altering cord blood cells before transplant can help them reach the bone marrow quicker and improve outcomes for patients with leukemia, lymphoma, or myelodysplastic syndrome. The study involves 'conditioning' chemo treatment to prepare the body for transplant.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions from ATG protein, damage to DNA by chemotherapy drugs like Fludarabine and Busulfan which may cause cancer cells to die but also affect healthy cells leading to various side effects such as nausea and increased infection risk.

Study Objectives
Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary study objectives
Safety and tolerability in patients who receive ASC-101-treated dual-cord UCBT
Secondary study objectives
Preliminary efficacy of ASC-101-treated dual-cord UCBT, as assessed by the rate of reconstitution of neutrophils and platelets as compared to historical controls receiving an unmanipulated dual-cord UCBT
