Purpose
This trial is proposes to build on our experience and is designed to maximize early (day 3-14) and late (day 60-71) donor-derived natural killer (NK) cell expansion and function in vivo. The proposed platform will allow us the unique opportunity to compare in vivo function from a transplanted umbilical cord blood (UCB) source (presumed to contain NK progenitors requiring "education" in the recipient).

Experimental: Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia
Patients with chemotherapy refractory Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) after a double T-cell depleted (TCD) umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation where the smaller unit is activated overnight in interleukin-2 (IL-2). IL-2 will be given three times weekly for 6 doses beginning on days+3 and days +60 to expand UCB-derived natural killer (NK) cells in vivo.

Drug: Allopurinol
On Day 8 pre-transplant, start hydration with allopurinol per standard of care.
Other Name: Zyloprim
Drug: Fludarabine
On Days 7, 6 and 5 pre-transplant, 25 mg/m^2 intravenously over 1 hour.
Other Name: Fludara
Radiation: Total body irradiation
On Days 5, 4, 3, and 2 pre-transplant, 165 cGy times 2 (330 cGy daily, 1320 total dose) according to the University Of Minnesota Blood and Marrow Transplant Program total body irradiation (TBI) guidelines.
Other Name: Radiation
Drug: Cyclophosphamide
On Days 7 and 6 pre-transplant, 60 mg/kg intravenously (IV) over 2 hours with a high volume fluid flush and mesna per institutional guidelines. Alternate Preparative Therapy For Patients Not Able To Receive TBI: Days 5, 4, 3 and 2 pre-transplant; 50 mg/kg/day IV over 2 hours. Other Name: Cytoxan
Drug: Levetiracetam
Alternate Preparative Therapy for Patients Not Able to Receive Total Body Irradiation (TBI): Hydration therapy on Day 10 pre-transplant.
Other Name: Keppra
Drug: Busulfan
Alternate Preparative Therapy For Patients Not Able To Receive TBI: Days 9, 8, 7 and 6 pre-transplant; 0.8 mg/kg (1.1 mg/kg if <12 kg) intravenously every 6 hours
Other Name: Myleran
Biological: Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation
Day 0: Two UCB units will compose the graft. The infusion of the first UCB unit should begin within 15 minutes, and no later than 30 minutes after arrival on the Unit. The UCB unit without IL-2 activation will be infused first, followed by the IL-2 activated unit. Both cords will be infused within 30-60 minutes of each other as deemed clinically safe by the BMT attending.
Other Name: UCBT
Biological: Interleukin-2
First Course of IL-2 (begin day +3) post-transplant: For patients ≥ 45 kg, IL-2 will be given at 9 million units every other day for a total of 6 doses subcutaneously. Patients weighing less than 45 kilograms, the IL-2 will be dosed at 5 million units/m^2 every other day for a total of 6 doses. Second Course of IL-2 (day +60): Patients will receive a second course of IL-2 beginning on Day +60 post transplant to expand and educate the NK cells derived from the UCB graft source. Other Name: IL-2

Detailed Description:
This single center study will determine the feasibility and safety of using a myeloablative conditioning regimen followed (on day 0) by transplantation with double T-cell depleted (TCD) umbilical cord blood (UCB) units where the unit with fewer mononuclear cells (MNCs)/kg will be selected for overnight IL-2 activation prior to infusion. Beginning on day +3, post transplant IL-2 will be administered thrice weekly, not on consecutive days, for a total of 6 doses to expand UCB derived progenitor cells. Post transplant immune suppression prophylaxis will not be administered with the intent to lessen toxicity and allow allogeneic NK cells to function longer providing better anti-leukemic therapy. However if either UCB unit has more than 5% T-cells, the patient will not receive either course of IL-2. Beginning on day +60 after transplantation, a second course of IL-2 will be administered thrice weekly, not on consecutive days, for a total of 6 doses with the purpose of enhancing the in vivo expansion and education of NK cells derived from engrafting UCB cells.
