Overview
This is a phase II trial of T cell receptor alpha/beta depletion (α/β TCD) peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation in patients with inherited bone marrow failure (BMF) disorders to eliminate the need for routine graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) immune suppression leading to earlier immune recovery and potentially a reduction in the risk of severe infections after transplantation.

- Adequate pulmonary, cardiac and liver function
- Voluntary written consent (minor assent if appropriate) prior to the performance of any study related procedures not part of standard medical care
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding as the treatment used in this study are Pregnancy Category D. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) within 14 days of study registration
- Active, uncontrolled infection within 1 week prior to starting study therapy
- Malignant solid tumor cancer within previous 2 years
Donor Selection (Inclusion Criteria): meets one of the following match criteria:
- an HLA-A, B, DRB1 matched sibling donor (matched sibling)
- an HLA-A, B, DRB1 matched related donor (other than sibling)
- a related donor mismatched at 1 HLA-A, B, C and DRB1 antigen
- 7-8/8 HLA-A,B,C,DRB1 allele matched unrelated donor per current institutional guidelines Patients and donors are typed for HLA-A and B using serological or molecular techniques and for DRB1 using high resolution molecular typing. If a donor has been selected on the basis of HLA-A, B, C and DRB1 typing as above, preference will be made for donors matched at the HLA-C locus.

Cruzi) plus HBV, HCV, WNV, HIV by nucleic acid testing (NAT); and screening for evidence of and risks factors for infection with Zika virus, or per current standard institutional donor screen - must be negative for HIV and active hepatitis B
- Not pregnant - females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of mobilization start
