Randomized Evaluation of Treosulfan Versus Melphalan Conditioning Followed by PTCy in Patients With AML and MDS Undergoing Allogeneic Transplantation
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness and tolerability of two conditioning chemotherapies prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The following will also be investigated: * Survival * Remission and Relapse rate * Engraftment or graft failure * Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD)
• Informed consent signed by the patient capable of giving
• Patient scheduled for allogeneic transplantation within the next 3 weeks
• Age ≥ 18 years
• AML or MDS according to WHO with indication for allogeneic HCT:
‣ AML in first or second complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi/CRh) or morphologic leukemia-free state (MLFS)
⁃ MDS according to WHO
• Increased risk for treatment-related toxicity by myeloablative conditioning according to at least one of the following criteria:
‣ Patients aged ≥ 50 years at transplant and/or
⁃ HCT-CI \> 2 and/or
⁃ AML or MDS scheduled for 2nd allogeneic HCT from different donor with minimum of 12 months after 1st allogeneic HCT
• Availability of a suitable donor:
‣ Matched sibling donor (MSD) or
⁃ matched unrelated donor (MUD, 10/10 HLA) or
⁃ mismatched unrelated donor (MMUD, single allele or antigen mismatch at HLA-A, -B, -C, or -DRB1 and no concurrent -DQB1 mismatch (9/10) shown by confirmatory typing) or
⁃ haploidentical family donor
• Planned GvHD prophylaxis with standard PTCy (with 50mg/kg body weight on days +3 and +4)
• No history of cardiac disease that preclude allogeneic HCT and absence of active symptoms, otherwise, documented left ventricular ejection fraction
⁃ 40 %.
• No need for supplementary oxygen on day of randomization
