Brief Summary: RATIONALE Glutamine may be able to decrease inflammation of the mouth and digestive system in children who are undergoing stem cell transplantation

PURPOSE Randomized double-blinded phase II trial to study the effectiveness of glutamine in reducing inflammation of the mouth and digestive system in children who are undergoing peripheral stem cell transplantation
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the efficacy of supplemental oral glutamine in reducing the severity and duration of mucositis in children undergoing stem cell transplantation II Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients III Determine serum glutamine levels achieved during this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized double blind multicenter study Patients are stratified according to inclusion of total body irradiation in the conditioning regimen yes vs no Patients receive either oral glutamine or oral placebo glycine twice a day beginning on the day of admission for the stem cell transplant and continuing for 28 days or until hospital discharge whichever is first

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 120 patients 60 per arm will be accrued for this study within 2 years
