AI summary: who the study is looking for
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who are going to have a stem cell transplant. It compares two kinds of pre-transplant chemotherapy.
- Age
- 16 to 55 years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- AML in first complete remission (acute promyelocytic leukemia is not included), or MDS with bone marrow blasts above 5% and under 20% at the time of transplant.
Main reasons for not taking part
- AML with active central nervous system or extramedullary disease
- Active viral, bacterial or fungal infection
- Hepatitis B virus above 1X103 copy/ml
- Abnormal liver or kidney function, or lung or heart problems

- Original description
Fludarabine and busulfan becomes standard conditioning regimen for adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplasia syndrome (MDS). The overall relapse rate is 15~20%. More recently, the investigators demonstrated that conditioning regimen with dual alkylating agents consistent of fludarabine, busulfan and melphalan achieved a low incidence of relapse (<10%). This multiple-center randomize study is aim to compare the transplantation outcome in adult patients with AML/MDS undergoing allo-HSCT with conditioning regimen of Flu-Bu4 vs. FLu-Bu-Mel.Read full original descriptionShow less
