The investigators want to study if lower doses of chemotherapy will help babies with SCID to
achieve good immunity with less short and long-term risks of complications after
transplantation. This trial identifies babies with types of immune deficiencies that are most
likely to succeed with this approach and offers them transplant early in life before they get
severe infections or later if their infections are under control. It includes only patients
receiving unrelated or mismatched related donor transplants.

The study will test if patients receiving transplant using either a low dose busulfan or a
medium dose busulfan will have immune recovery of both T and B cells, measured by the ability
to respond to immunizations after transplant. The exact regimen depends on the subtype of
SCID the patient has. Donors used for transplant must be unrelated or half-matched related
(haploidentical) donors, and peripheral blood stem cells must be used. To minimize the chance
of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), the stem cells will have most, but not all, of the T
cells removed, using a newer, experimental approach of a well-established technology. Once
the stem cell transplant is completed, patients will be followed for 3 years. Approximately
9-18 months after the transplant, vaccinations will be administered, and a blood test
measuring whether your child's body has responded to the vaccine will be collected.

This phase I/II trial studies how well tiragolumab and atezolizumab works when given to children and adults with SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficient tumors that that has either come back (relapsed) or does not respond to therapy (refractory). SMARCB1 or SMARCA4 deficiency means that tumor cells are missing the SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 genes, seen with some aggressive cancers that are typically hard to treat. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as tiragolumab and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This trial studies the side effects of enasidenib and to see how well it works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after treatment (relapsed) or has been difficult to treat with chemotherapy (refractory). Patients must also have a specific genetic change, also called a mutation, in a protein called IDH2. Enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the mutated IDH2 protein, which is needed for cell growth.

This randomized clinical phase III trial studies how well web-based physical activity intervention works in improving long term health in children and adolescents with cancer. Regular physical activity after receiving treatment for cancer may help to maintain a healthy weight and improve energy levels and overall health.

This study aims to use clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available pediatric leukemia sub-trials. Testing bone marrow and blood from patients with leukemia that has come back after treatment or is difficult to treat may provide information about the patient's leukemia that is important when deciding how to best treat it, and may help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia in children, adolescents, and young adults.
