Brief Summary:
This clinical trial will access the toxicity and efficacy of infusion of gene modified cells for patients with Fanconi anemia (FA). Infusion of autologous patient blood stem cells that have been corrected in the laboratory by introduction of the normal gene may improve blood counts in patients with FA.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Fanconi Anemia Procedure: Bone Marrow Aspiration Biological: Filgrastim Biological: Genetically Engineered Hematopoietic Stem Progenitor Cells Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis Procedure: Leukapheresis Drug: Methylprednisolone Drug: Plerixafor Drug: Prednisone Phase 1

Detailed Description:

OUTLINE:

STEM CELL MOBILIZATION FOR CELL COLLECTION: Patients receive filgrastim subcutaneously (SC) twice daily (BID) for up to 6 days (on days 1-6 of mobilization). Patients receive plerixafor SC once daily (QD) on days 4-6 of mobilization. Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) count will be checked daily starting on day 4 of mobilization. Patients who have a PBSC count of >= 5 CD34+ cells/mcL will undergo up to 2 apheresis collections on consecutive days.

BONE MARROW HARVEST FOR CELL COLLECTION: Patients with inadequate PBSC counts undergo bone marrow harvest for collection of stem/progenitor cells.

REINFUSION: Patients receive methylprednisolone intravenously (IV) or prednisone orally (PO) on days -1 to 7 followed by a rapid taper over approximately 1 week and undergo reinfusion of genetically modified hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells on day 0.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically for 15 years.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Toxicity of gene transfer [ Time Frame: Up to 15 years ]
    Adverse events will be graded by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4.

  2. Hematological and non-hematological organ toxicity [ Time Frame: Up to 15 years ]
    Adverse events will be graded by CTCAE, version 4.

  3. Development of insertional mutagenesis or hematologic malignancy [ Time Frame: Up to 15 years ]
    Adverse events will be graded by CTCAE, version 4.

  4. Development of replication competent lentivirus [ Time Frame: Up to 15 years ]
    Adverse events will be graded by CTCAE, version 4.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Efficacy of G-CSF and plerixafor mobilization in Fanconi anemia (FA) patients [ Time Frame: Up to 6 days ]
  2. Efficacy of lineage depletion of bone marrow or mobilized cell product [ Time Frame: Up to 15 years ]
  3. Transduction efficiency [ Time Frame: Day 0 ]
