ABBA CORD: Double Umbilical Cord Blood Transplants With Abatacept for Graft Versus Host Disease Prophylaxis

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if adding abatacept to tacrolimus and MMF prevents or reduces the chances of acute graft versus host disease which is a complication that can occur after transplant in participants with blood cancer. The usual therapy for graft versus host disease prevention after a cord blood transplant includes tacrolimus and MMF. The main question this clinical trial aims to answer is whether or not abatacept will be safe and effective in reducing aGVHD rates in dCBT. Participants will: * Partake in exams, tests, and procedures as part of usual cancer care. * Partake in conditioning, which is the treatment that is given before a transplant. * Have a cord blood transplant. * Partake in radiation following the transplant.

Interventions
Cyclophosphamide (Cy) is one part of the conditioning regimen. 50 mg/kg beginning on day -6.
Fludarabine (Flu) is one part of the conditioning regimen. 150 mg/m2 (30 mg/m2 per day on days -6 to -2)
Thiotepa (Thio) is one part of the conditioning regimen.10 mg/kg (5 mg/kg per day on days -5 and -4)
400 cGy (200 cGy per day on days -2 and -1).
Cord blood is a regulated biologic. Selection of cord blood units will be based on published guidelines.
Tacrolimus will be administered post transplant. Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis will consist of tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), starting on day-5. Tacrolimus will continue at least until day 180 and then be tapered off.
MMF will be administered post transplant. Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis will consist of tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), starting on day-5. MMF will continue until day 30.
