About this trial

The present project aims at comparing two conditioning regimens (FM-PTCy vs FM-ATG). The hypothesis is that one or the two regimens will lead to a 2-year cGRFS rate improvement from 30% (the cGRFS rate with FM without ATG/PTCy) to 45% (Pick-a-winner phase 2 randomized study).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

AML in morphological CR or not in morphological CR but not rapidly progressing (i.e. no need to give treatments such as hydroxyurea to maintain WBC count < 10 000 x109/mL);

CML in CP or AP;

MPD not in blast crisis,

Disqualifiers

Any condition not fulfilling inclusion criteria;

Human Immunodeficiency Virus positive;

Non-hematological malignancy(ies) (except non-melanoma skin cancer) active < 3 years before Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT).

Life expectancy severely limited by disease other than malignancy;
