I only know of GOOPS and Theme-D -- Guix also has a
‘define-gexp-compiler’ but it's very ad-hoc.

It allows defining something like

(define (lower stuff system target)
  (cond ((derivation? stuff) stuff) ; done
        ((foo? stuff) (lower (lower-foo stuff system target)))
        ((bar? stuff) (lower (lower-bar stuff system target)))
        [...]))

(where 'lower-stuff' converts 'stuff' into something 'lowerable'),
but in an extensible way.
