Treosulfan or busulfan plus fludarabine as conditioning treatment before allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation for older patients with ac…
2019
Background: Further improvement of preparative regimens before allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an unmet medical need for the growing number of older or comorbid patients with acute myeloid leukaemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of conditioning with treosulfan plus fludarabine compared with reduced-intensity busulfan plus fludarabine in this population. Methods: We did an open-label, randomised, non-inferiority, phase 3 trial in 31 transplantation centres in France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, and Poland. Eligible patients were 18–70 years, had acute myeloid leukaemia in first or consecutive complete haematological remissi…

Introduction: The most common cause of treatment failure after allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) is relapse. The combination of venetoclax and the hypomethylating agents (HMA) azacitidine (AZA) or decitabine (DAC) have shown promising efficacy in elderly patients with AML. We here present clinical data on 32 patients, who were treated with an HMA/venetoclax combination therapy (HMAClax) for relapse of a myeloid malignancy after aHSCT, collected retrospectively from 11 German centers. Results: Sixteen patients (50%) were male, median age was 54 years (30.8-71.5). Diagnoses at aHSCT were 25 AML (17 primary, 8 emerging from MDS, CMML or OMF), 5 MDS, 1 CMML and one atypi…
