Measure
Busulfan/Melphalan/Thiotepa
Treatment: Drug: Busulfan 3.2mg/kg/day for 3 days starting on day -8. Each dose of intravenous busulfan will be mixed in a concentration of 0.54 mg/ml of 0.9% saline and infused over 3 hours. Drug: Melphalan 50mg/m2/day/iv, infused over 30 minutes on days -5 and -4. The reconstituted melphalan is diluted in 250cc normal saline to a concentration not greater than 0.4 mg/ml. Drug: Thiotepa 250 mg/m2/day/iv on days -3 and -2. Procedure/Surgery: Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Performed 36-48 hours following last chemotherapy dose. The transplant therapy should begin within 2 weeks of registration, but no sooner then 30 days after the last dose of chemotherapy. Administration Growth Factor: Filgrastim 5mcg/kg intravenous piggyback (IVPB) will be administered beginning on day +5 and continued until absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1500 for 2 consecutive days.
