Brief Summary: RATIONALE Studying biopsy bone marrow and blood samples from patients with cytopenia that did not respond to treatment may help doctors learn more about the disease and plan the best treatment

PURPOSE This laboratory study is assessing immune function in young patients with cytopenia that did not respond to treatment
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

To evaluate the value of TCR V beta repertoire analysis for the determination of autoimmunity in refractory cytopenia RC
To evaluate which immunophenotypic hematopoietic subclones are associated with oligoclonal T-cell expansion in RC
To evaluate the presence of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria PNH clones in RC

Secondary

To compare the molecular response with the hematologic response in patients with RC after treatment with immunosuppressive therapy IST
To compare the molecular response with human leukocyte histocompatability antigen HLA expression in patients with RC after treatment with IST

OUTLINE This is an open-label multicenter nonrandomized prospective study

Patients undergo biopsy bone marrow and blood sample collection periodically for immunological studies Samples are analyzed for TCR V beta repertoire and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria PNH clone analysis via PCR heteroduplex analysis and immunophenotyping of CD14 CD16 CD55 CD59 and CD24 expression via flow cytometry
