Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of abnormal cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving low-doses ...

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: Primary * Determine whether very low-dose cytarabine can improve event-free survival (EFS) rates in infants with high-risk transient myeloproliferative disorder (TMD), using high-risk TM...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Diagnosis of transient myeloproliferative disorder (TMD)
  • Diagnosis of Down syndrome or Down syndrome mosaicism (confirmed by karyotype analysis within the past 3 weeks) AND 1 of the following:
  • Nonerythroid and nonlymphoid blasts (any amount) in the peripheral blood with verification of a second sample
  • Trisomy 21-positive leukemic blasts documented by biopsy of any organ (including \> 5% nonerythroid/nonlymphoid blasts documented by bone marrow aspirate or biopsy)
  • Immunophenotype characterization required
  • High-, intermediate-, or low-risk TMD, as defined by the following:
  • High-risk TMD, meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Life-threatening cardio-respiratory compromise due to complications of TMD (e.g., organomegaly or effusions)
  • Life-threatening cardio-respiratory compromise is defined as cardiovascular grade 4 edema, grade 4 pericardial effusions, or grade 4 pleural effusions
  • Hyperleukocytosis, defined as a WBC \> 100,000/mm³
  • Any degree of hepatomegaly (palpable on physical exam) combined with life-threatening hepatic dysfunction

  • Intermediate-risk TMD, meeting all of the following criteria:
  • Hepatomegaly (palpable on physical exam) combined with non life-threatening hepatic dysfunction (i.e., grade 1-3 hepatic dysfunction \[AST or ALT ≤ 2.5 times ULN\] and/or a total or direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times ULN)
  • No evidence of life-threatening cardiovascular, respiratory, or hepatic compromise due to complications of TMD
  • Low-risk TMD, meeting all of the following criteria:
  • No palpable hepatomegaly on physical exam OR hepatomegaly is present without hepatic dysfunction (i.e., grade 0 hepatic dysfunction)
  • No evidence of life-threatening cardiovascular, respiratory, or hepatic compromise due to complications of TMD
  • PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
  • See Disease Characteristics
