Background: Blood cancers (such as leukemias or lymphomas) often do not respond to standard treatments. A transplant of blood stem cells from a healthy donor can help people with these cancers. Sometimes these transplants cause serious side effects, including a common immunologic problem called graft-versus-host disease. A drug called cyclophosphamide given early after the transplant (post-transplantation cyclophosphamide, PTCy) can reduce these complications. But sometimes this drug has its own negative effects. Furthermore, studies in mice suggest that an intermediate, rather than very high, dose of this drug may best protect against graft-versus-host disease. Objective: To find out if a lower dose of PTCy is more helpful for people who undergo blood stem cell transplants. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who have a blood cancer and are eligible for a transplant of blood stem cells from another person. Healthy donors are also needed but must be related to the individual needing the transplant. Design: Participants will undergo screening. Transplant recipients will have imaging scans and tests of their heart and lung function. They will be assessed for the status of their cancer, including bone marrow taken from their pelvis and possibly also scans and/or fluid drawn from the spine depending on the disease type. Donors will be screened for general health. They will give several tubes of blood. They will give an oral swab and saliva and stool samples for research. Recipients will be in the hospital at least 4 to 6 weeks. They will have a temporary catheter inserted into a vein in the chest or neck. Medications will be given and blood will be drawn through the catheter. The transplanted stem cells will be given through the catheter. Participants will receive medications both before and after the transplant. Participants will return to the clinic at least once a week for 3 months after leaving the hospital. Follow-up visits will continue periodically for 5 years.

This is a Phase I clinical study evaluating the safety and maximum tolerated dose of a novel CAR T-cell product: allogeneic memory (CD45RA- negative) T-cells expressing a CD19-specific CAR 41BBz (CD19-CAR.CD45RA- negative T-cells) for the treatment of patients ≤ 21 years old with relapsed and/ or refractory CD19-positive leukemia. Primary Objective To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and characterize the safety profile and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of treatment with allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells in pediatric, adolescent and young adult patients ≤ 21 years of age, with relapsed and/or refractory CD19-positive leukemia. Secondary Objectives * To evaluate the anti-leukemic activity of allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells. * To determine rates and severity of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) after treatment with allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells. Exploratory Objectives * To study the expansion, persistence and phenotype of allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells. * To characterize the cytokine profile in the peripheral blood and CSF after treatment with allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells. * To assess whether allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells acquire functional versus exhaustion-associated epigenetic programs. * To determine immune reconstitution post treatment, and the clonal structure and endogenous repertoire of allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells and relate inferred specificity to CAR response profiles. * To characterize incidence and mechanisms of relapse post-therapy with allogeneic CD19-CAR.CD45RA-negative T-cells.

This is a first in human, multi center, open label, phase 1/1b study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of CER-1236 in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R), measurable residual disease (MRD) positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML), or TP53mut disease.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about newer methods of transplanting blood cells donated by a partially matched family member to children with high-risk CD19 positive leukemia ALL. Primary Objective: \- To assess the safety and feasibility of combining CD19-CAR(Mem) T cells after TCRαβ+/CD19 depleted haploidentical donor transplantation for pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory CD19+ B-cell malignancies. Secondary Objectives: * To estimate 1-year post-transplant overall survival, event-free survival, and GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS). * To estimate cumulative incidence of engraftment, acute and chronic GVHD, and immune-related adverse events, including CRS and ICANS.

Pilot study to determine feasibility of adding intrathecal chemotherapy and maintenance therapy after high dose chemotherapy for treatment of newly diagnosed HR-EBTs in patients less than 6 years of age.
