Brief Summary: Patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation BMT and peripheral blood stem cell transplants PBSCT frequently develop organ dysfunctions much of which may be initiated by damage to the liver and to cells lining blood vessels

We the researchers at Vanderbilt University propose to perform a randomized prospective double-blind placebo-controlled study of 144 patients undergoing allogeneic marrow transplantation The treatment is aimed at supporting hepatic urea cycle function in patients receiving escalated dose chemotherapyBMT By so doing we hope to prevent development of hepatic venoocclusive disease HVOD and acute lung injury ALI two morbid complications of BMT Patients will be randomized to receive oral citrulline a urea cycle amino acid intermediate or placebo beginning before conditioning therapy and continuing until 21 days after BMT All patients will be followed for 100 days after study enrollment with intensive data collection
