Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
I. To determine if the infusion of CD4+ T-cell-depleted hematopoietic cells from a haploidentical donor, following a non-myeloablative/ reduced-intensity preparative regimen is safe in patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA).
II. To determine the feasibility of producing an infusion ready CD4+ T-cell-depleted hematopoietic product, as assessed by:
IIa. Ability to meet the minimum required CD34+ cell dose, and; IIb. Ability to meet the CD4+ T-cell depletion product release requirements.

A unidirectional mismatch in either the graft versus host or host versus graft direction is considered a mismatch. The donor and recipient must demonstrate that they are a full haplotype match by being identical at a minimum of one allele (at high resolution DNA-based typing) at the following genetic loci: HLA-A, -B, -C, and DRB1 if 8 allele typing is used; HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 if 10 allele typing is used; and HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1-, DQB1, and -DPB1 is 12 allele typing is used by the local center.

* DONOR: Documented general institutional informed consent per local, state and federal guidelines.
* DONOR: Age: younger than 60 years.
* DONOR: Haplo donor selection is based on HLA typing and relationship to recipient.
* DONOR: When more than one donor is available, the donor with the lowest number of HLA allele mismatches will be chosen unless there is HLA cross-match incompatibility or a medical reason to select otherwise. In cases where there is more than one donor with the least degree of mismatch, donors will be selected based on the most favorable combination of HLA compatibility in cross-match testing and ABO compatibility. Prioritization is given to the lowest number of mismatches in the host-versus-graft (HVG) direction to minimize the risk of graft failure.
* DONOR: If there is more than one donor with the least amount of host-versus-graft (HVG) allele mismatches, the suggested prioritization in order of importance includes ABO compatibility, cytomegalovirus (CMV) status (use a sero-negative donor for a sero-negative recipient or use a sero-positive donor for a sero-positive recipient), younger age and lighter weight (this rule applies down to the age of 18, however, children may also be used as donors if appropriate), and sex of the donor (if all else is equal, males are preferred over nulliparous females over multiparous females).
* DONOR: Infectious disease screening performed within 30 days prior to stem cell collection and per federal guidelines and is:
* Seronegative for HIV Ag, HIV 1+2 Ab, human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) I/II Ab, hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B virus core antibody (HBcAb) (immunoglobulin M \[IgM\] and immunoglobulin G \[IgG\]), HCV Ab;
