Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Confirmed diagnosis of AML or high risk MDS in the following disease stages: Induction failure, first or subsequent remission, or untreated first relapse. Patient must have an HLA-compatible donor willing and capable of donating peripheral blood stem cells preferably or bone marrow progenitor cells using conventional techniques, and lymphocytes if indicated (HLA-compatible defined as 5/6 or 6/6 matched related or 6/6 molecular matched unrelated donor) Both patient and donor must sign written informed consent forms. Patients must have: ECOG PS </= 2; Ejective fraction > 40%; DLCO > 40% of predicted; Serum bilirubin </= 1.5x institutional upper limit of normal; SGPT (ALT) and SGOT (AST) </= 2.5x institutional upper limit of normal; Serum creatinine </= 2x upper limit of normal; Creatinine clearance >/= 60mL/min. However, renal dysfunction is not an absolute contraindication for NMT as dialysis can be performed during NMT.
