Official Title: Pilot Safety and Feasibility Trial of Mycophenolate and Sirolimus for Prevention of GVHD in Mismatched Unrelated and Related Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Hematologic Malignancies

Brief Summary: This pilot phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well sirolimus and mycophenolate mofetil work in preventing graft versus host disease (GvHD) in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Biological therapies, such as sirolimus and mycophenolate mofetil, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Giving sirolimus and mycophenolate mofetil after hematopoietic stem cell transplant may be better in preventing graft-versus-host disease.
