An Early Phase 1 interventional study of Transplant of stem cells with CD3+/CD19+ depletion (CliniMACs) in Leukemia, Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes, sponsored by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged Up to 30 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-02-20.

The goal of this protocol is to expand access for patients who lack a fully HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) matched sibling donor and who are candidates for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). These patients have a serious or immediately life-threatening disease for which HSCT is indicated. These patients are not eligible for other Children's Hospital of Philadelphia IRB approved protocols that utilize CliniMACs technology for T depletion.
Only 25-30% of patients who may benefit from HSCT have a matched related donor. There is a higher rate of complications using cells from an unrelated or partially matched related donor. T cells within the donor cells may cause a complication called graft vs. host disease (GVHD). The goal of this study is to use the CliniMACs device to remove the T cells that cause GVHD, called T cell depletion.
2,381 studies on the registry are indexed under Leukemia; 253 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 100 is above the median of 40 across 1,769 interventional studies indexed under Leukemia.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Patients with the following transplantable diseases:
Non-malignant diseases:
Metabolic storage diseases correctable by HSCT, Bone marrow failure syndromes, Immunodeficiencies/immune dysregulation syndromes/including HLH, Hemoglobinopathies correctable and requiring HSCT, and Other diseases treated with HSCT/Other non-malignant blood, metabolic, or immune disorders for which HSCT has been recommended
Malignant diseases:
Acute leukemias, Chronic leukemias, Lymphomas, Myelodyplastic syndrome
Patients must have an identified living donor
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Stem cell (bone marrow) transplants. Allogeneic uses cells from a donor; autologous uses your own cells, collected earlier and given back.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A 0–100 scale of how well someone can carry out everyday activities. 100 is no complaints and no signs of illness; 70 is able to look after yourself but not to work or keep up normal activity; 50 is needing considerable help and frequent medical care.
Studies often ask for 60 or 70 and above. Your doctor gives the score.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Allogeneic and autologous transplant

Biological: Transplant of stem cells with CD3+/CD19+ depletion (CliniMACs)
Processing of stem cells using the CliniMACs device to selectively deplete specific T cells to decrease risk of graft versus host disease when using donor stem cells which are not fully matched.
Also known as: CliniMACs
Overall Survival
Number of participants who remain alive.
Time frame: 1 year post transplant
Graft versus Host Disease
Number of participants who had grades II-IV acute graft versus host disease and/or limited or extensive chronic gvhd
Time frame: 1 year post transplant
Graft Failure
Number of participants who experienced primary or secondary graft failure or autologous reconstitution.
Time frame: 1 year post transplant
