Inclusion criteria
✓. Patients with the diagnosis of MDS (Low, Int-1 by IPSS, or hypocellular) who are either previously untreated or who have been previously treated are eligible for this trial.
✓. Patients with the diagnosis of aplastic anemia who have or have not been previously treated are eligible for inclusion if they are not currently candidates for an allogeneic stem cell transplant.
✓. Patients with the diagnosis of T-LGL who have or have not been previously treated are eligible for inclusion.
✓. Patients must have been off of cytotoxic, immunosuppressive, or targeted therapy (except hydroxyurea) for at least 2 weeks prior to entering this study, and have recovered from the toxic effects of that therapy to grade 1 or less.
✓. Adequate organ function as defined: liver function (bilirubin \< or = 2mg/dL, AST and/or ALT \< or = 3 x ULN) ; kidney function (creatinine \< or = 2.5 x ULN ).
✓. ECOG performance status of \< or = 3.
✓. The effects of alemtuzumab on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

Overall Response - Number of Participants Who Achieved Complete Remission (CR)+Partial Remission (PR) - as Per International Working Group (IWG) Response Criteria
Timeframe: Up to 6 months following treatment; response assessed every 2 months
. Pregnant women are excluded from this study because alemtuzumab is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with alemtuzumab, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with alemtuzumab. These potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study.
✕. Known HIV infection.
✕. Known Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C infection.
✕. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
✕. Patient with documented hypersensitivity to alemtuzumab.
