Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, (MDS) according to WHO classification (< 20 % myeloblasts in peripheral blood or bone marrow at initial diagnosis) indicated for allogeneic transplantation
  2. Availability of an HLA-identical sibling donor (MRD) or HLA-identical unrelated donor (MUD) HLA-identity defined by the following markers: HLA-A, -B, -DRB1, DQB1.
  3. Target graft size (unmanipulated) bone marrow: 2 to 10 x 106 CD34+ cells/kg BW recipient or at least 2 x 108 nucleated cells /kg BW or peripheral blood: 4 to 10 x 106 CD34+ cells/kg BW recipient

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, multinational, non-randomized, non-controlled open-label phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of treosulfan in a combination regimen with fludarabine as conditioning therapy prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in patients with MDS. The aim is to demonstrate a clinical benefit compared to historical data with intravenous busulfan.
