Available 10/10 HLA-matched related or 8/8 matched unrelated donor, or 4/6 (or greater) matched UCB unit(s) with a total dose of greater than or equal to 3.5 times 10(7) TNC/kg. 4. Patients may have evidence of MDS with one or more peripheral blood cytopenias and greater than 5% blasts but less than 10% blasts in the bone marrow in the absence of GCSF. Patients previously treated for acute myelogenous leukemia are eligible if they have less than or equal to 10% blasts in the bone marrow in the absence of G-CSF. Subjects 12-17 years of age are required to have MDS with chromosomal abnormalities in addition to mutation in the GATA2 gene for enrollment on this protocol. 5.

Pulmonary Function Tests: Adult patients: DLCO diffusion capacity and FEV1 greater than 10% of expected value obtained within 28 days of enrollment. Pediatric patients: DLCO corrected for hemoglobin and alveolar volume greater than or equal to 20% of predicted. 7. Creatinine: Adult patients: less than or equal to 2.0 mg/dl and creatinine clearance greater than or equal to 30 ml/min; Pediatric patients: age-adjusted normal serum creatinine OR a creatinine clearance \> 60 mL/min/1.73m(2). 8. Serum total bilirubin less than 2.5 mg/dl; ALT and AST less than or equal to 5 times upper limit of normal . 9. Adequate central venous access potential. 10. Written informed consent/assent obtained from patient/parent or legal guardian. 11. Life expectancy of at least 3 months but less than 24 months. 12. Disease status: Patients are to be referred in remission for evaluation. Should a patient have progressive disease or a donor not be available after enrollment, the patient will be referred back to their primary hematologist-oncologist for treatment. If this course of action is not in the best interest of the patient according to the clinical judgment of the PI/LAI, then the patient may receive standard treatment for the malignant disease under the current study. If under either of these settings, it becomes apparent that the patient will not be able to proceed to transplant, then he/she must come off study. Recipient-Subjects receiving a standard therapy will be told about the therapy, associated risks, benefits alternatives of the proposed therapy, and availability of receiving the same treatment elsewhere, outside of a research protocol. EXCLUSION CRITERIA- RECIPIENT: 1. HIV infection. 2. Chronic active hepatitis B. Patient may be hepatitis B core antibody positive. For patients with a concomitant positive hepatitis B surface antigen, patients will require a hepatology consultation. The risk-benefit profile of transplant and hepatitis B will be discussed with the patient, and eligibility determined by the PI and the protocol chairperson. 3. History of psychiatric disorder which may compromise compliance with transplant protocol, or which does not allow for appropriate informed consent. 4. Active infection that is not responding to antimicrobial therapy. 5. Active CNS involvement by malignancy (patients with known positive CSF cytology or parenchymal lesions visible by CT or MRI. 6. Pregnant or lactating. 7. Sexually active individuals capable of becoming pregnant who are unable or unwilling to use effective form(s) of contraception during time enrolled on study and for 1 year post-transplant. Effective forms of contraception include one or more of the following: intrauterine device (IUD), hormonal (birth control pills, injections, or implants), tubal ligation/hysterectomy, partners vasectomy, barrier methods, (condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap), or abstinence. The effects on breast-milk are also unknown and may be harmful to the infant; therefore, women should not breast feed during the interval from study entry to one year post-transplant. Males on the protocol must use an effective form of contraception at study entry, and for one year post-transplant. The effects of transplant, the radiation, and the medications used after transplant may be harmful to a fetus. 8. Presence of active malignancy in another organ system other than the hematopoietic 9. No available 10/10 HLA-matched related or 8/8 matched unrelated donor, or 4/6 (or greater) matched UCB unit(s) with a total dose of greater than or equal to 3.5 times 10(7) TNC/kg. 10. Lack of mutation in GATA2 as demonstrated by the CLIA certified laboratory of Dr. Steven Holland in the NIAID. INCLUSION CRITERIA- MATCHED RELATED DONOR: 1. Related donor matched at HLA-A, B, C, DR, and DQ loci by high resolution typing (10/10 antigen/allele match) are acceptable donors. 2. Matched related donors for pediatric recipients must be 18 years of age or older. If more than one matched related donor is available, we will select the oldest donor to further decrease the risk of potential disease transmission. 3. Ability to give informed consent. 4. Age 18-60 years. 5. No history of life-threatening opportunistic infection. 6. Adequate venous access for peripheral apheresis, or consent to use a temporary central venous catheter for apheresis. 7.

A donor who is lactating must be willing and able to interrupt breast-feeding or substitute formula feeding for her infant during the period of filgrastim administration and for two days following the final dose. Filgrastim may be secreted in human milk, although its bioavailability from this source is not known. Limited clinical data suggest that short-term administration of filgrastim or sargramostim to neonates is not associated with adverse outcomes. INCLUSION CRITERIA- MATCHED UNRELATED DONOR: 1. Unrelated donor matched at 10/10 or 9/10 HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, and DQB1 loci by high resolution typing. 2. Matched unrelated donors for pediatric recipients must be 18 years of age or older. 3. The evaluation of donors shall be in accordance with existing NMDP Standard Policies and Procedures. General donor inclusion criteria specified in the NMDP Standard. EXCLUSION CRITERIA- MATCHED RELATED DONOR: 1. Age less than 18 years. 2. HIV infection. 3. Chronic active hepatitis B. Donor may be hepatitis core antibody positive. 4. History of psychiatric disorder which in the opinion of the PI may compromise compliance with transplant protocol, or which does not allow to be appropriately informed. 5. History of hypertension that is not controlled by medication, stroke, or severe heart disease. Individuals with symptomatic angina will be considered to have severe heart disease and will not be eligible to be a donor. 6. Other medical contraindications to stem cell donation (i.e. severe atherosclerosis, autoimmune disease, iritis or episcleritis, deep venous thrombosis, cerebrovascular accident). 7. History of prior malignancy. However, cancer survivors who have undergone potentially curative therapy may be considered for stem cell donation on a case-by-case basis. The risk/benefit of the transplant and the possibility of transmitting viable tumor cells at the time of transplantation will be discussed with the patient. 8. Donors must not be pregnant. Pregnancy is an absolute contraindication under this protocol. The effects of cytokine administration on a fetus are unknown. Donors of childbearing potential must use an effective method of contraception. Effective forms of contraception include one or more of the following: intrauterine device (IUD), hormonal (birth control pills, injections, or implants), tubal ligation/hysterectomy, partner s vasectomy, barrier methods, (condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap), or abstinence. 9. Thrombocytopenia (platelets less than 150,000 per micro l) at baseline evaluation. 10. Donors receiving experimental therapy or investigational agents. 11. Sensitivity to filgrastim or to E. coli-derived recombinant protein products. 12. History of autoimmune disorders, with the exception of thyroid disorders. 13. History of documented deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. EXCLUSION CRITERIA- MATCHED UNRELATED DONOR: Failure to qualify as an NMDP donor INCLUSION CRITERIA- UMBILICAL CORD BLOOD UNIT-HLA TYPING AND DOSE 1. At least an HLA UCB 4/6 match (Class I-A, B by low resolution, and Class II-DR by high resolution) to recipient. The following algorithm will be applied to determine if patient will receive single or double umbilical cord graft: 2. For Single UCB SCT: * If 6/6 match the unit must have \> 3 x 10(7) nucleated cells /kg of recipient body weight. * If 5/6 match the unit must have \> 4 x 10(7) nucleated cells /kg of recipient body weight. * If 4/6 match the unit must have \> 5 x 10(7) nucleated cells/kg of recipient body weight. Recipient body weight will be determined as per standard guidelines. 3. If no single UCB with the above characteristics is available, a double UCB will be considered. Units will be selected with the following criteria: * Both units will be at least 4/6 match (Class I-A, B by low resolution, Class II-DR by high resolution) to recipient, and should be at least a 4/6 match (Class I-A, B by low resolution, Class II-DR by high resolution) to each other. * At least one UCB will have a minimum cell dose of 2.0 X 10(7) TNC/kg of recipient body weight. * The minimum combined dose of both units must be at least 3.5 x 10(7) TNC/kg of recipient body weight. * The smaller of the two units (UCB2) will have a minimum of 1.5 X 10(7) TNC/kg of recipient body weight. * The TNC of non-RBC reduced units will be dose corrected by -25% to allow for cell loss while washing the unit. INCLUSION CRITERIA- HAPLOIDENTICAL RELATED DONOR: * A haploidentical donor that shares one haplotype in common with the recipient such that HLA compatibility will be a minimum of 5 out of 10 HLA loci matched. The HLA loci to be tested will be HLA A, B, Cw, DRB1, and DQB1. A minimum number of mismatches is desirable; however if several options are available the selection of a donor will be based on the loci where the mismatch occurs and the relative importance of its potential immunological function. Donor-recipient pairs will initially be typed molecularly to provide a low resolution typing (antigen-level) to aid in the selection of the potential donor. Upon review of the familial inheritance pattern, a qualified HLA staff member will review haplotype inheritance. High resolution (allele-level) typing will be performed. Final selection of a donor will be in consultation with NCI physicians and qualified HLA personnel. Haploidentical related donors for pediatric recipients must be 15 years of age or older. If more than one haploidentical related donor is available, we will evaluate each donor individually according to overall health, ABO matching, cytomegalovirus (CMV), etc. to select the donor * Age 15-60 years * No history of life-threatening opportunistic infection * Adequate venous access for peripheral apheresis, or consent to use a temporary central venous catheter for apheresis. * Donors must be HIV negative, hepatitis B surface antigen negative, and hepatitis C antibody negative. This is to prevent the possible transmission of these infections to the recipient. * Haploidentical donors will undergo marrow harvest with general anesthesia. Subjects will undergo anesthesia consultation, and meet criteria for eligibility/enrollment. CD34+ fraction will be determined. * Subjects will also undergo the Donor Health History Screen to determine donor eligibility using standard DTM criteria in the Dowling Apheresis Clinic by skilled staff in the Blood Services Section for adult patients and age-appropriate questioning when indicated for pediatric subjects. * Subjects will undergo follow-up history and physical examination within 1 week of donation. EXCLUSION CRITERIA- HAPLOIDENTICAL DONOR: * Age less than 15 years. * HIV infection * Chronic active hepatitis B.

However, cancer survivors who have undergone potentially curative therapy may be considered for stem cell donation on a case-by-case basis. The risk/benefit of the transplant and the possibility of transmitting viable tumor cells at the time of transplantation will be discussed with the patient. * Donors must not be pregnant. Pregnancy is an absolute contraindication under this protocol. The effects of cytokine administration on a fetus are unknown. Donors of childbearing potential must use an effective method of contraception. Effective forms of contraception include one or more of the following: intrauterine device (IUD), hormonal (birth control pills, injections, or implants), tubal ligation/hysterectomy, partners vasectomy, barrier methods, (condom, diaphragm, or cervical cap), or abstinence. * Thrombocytopenia (platelets less than 150,000 per microliter) at baseline evaluation. * Donors receiving experimental therapy or investigational agents. * Sensitivity to filgrastim or to E. coli-derived recombinant protein products. * History of autoimmune disorders, with the exception of thyroid disorders * History of documented deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism * Mutation in GATA2
