4.1Disease inclusion criteria:
In general this encompasses all haematological disorders where a volunteer unrelated donor transplant is clinically indicated.
1.Acute, chronic leukaemia or myelodysplastic syndrome for which allogeneic transplantation is considered as the best treatment option.
a.Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML)
i.In first complete remission (CR1) with one of the following characteristics:
1.High risk cytogenetic or molecular alterations (e.g. t(9;22), deletion 7/7q-, monosomy 5 or del(5q), 3q26 alterations, complex karyotype [3 or more anomalies], p53 alterations, 11q23 especially t(6;11) abnormalities, FLT-3 ITD)
2.Leukocytes at diagnosis > 50 x109/l (except in cases with good prognosis molecular rearrangements for which leukocytes should be > 100 x 109/l)
b.Myelodysplastic syndromes
1.International Prognosis Index (IPSS) above 1 (intermediate group 2 or high risk)
2.IPSS 0 or 0.5 in the presence of cytopenias requiring treatment.
c.Therapy related AML or MDS in first CR
d.AML or MDS in second (CR2) or subsequent CR
e.Ph’-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia
i.In first chronic phase if refractory and/or intolerance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors is clearly demonstrated
ii.In second chronic phase
2.Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL)
a.In CR1 with one of the following characteristics:
i.Very high risk chromosome or molecular alterations (e.g. t(9;22), t(4;11), complex karyotype in adults, bcr/abl rearrangements, MLL rearrangements)
ii.Slow response to induction treatment defined as the presence of >10% blasts in bone marrow at day 14 of induction treatment
iii.Adults aged > 30 years
iv.Adults with B ALL cell line with a number of leukocytes at diagnosis >25 x 109/L or T ALL cell line with a number of leukocytes at diagnosis >100X109/L
b.In CR2 or subsequent CR
3.Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
a.Follicular NHL: in second or subsequent complete or partial remission
b.Mantle cell NHL: in second or subsequent complete or partial remission
c.High grade NHL: in second complete or very good partial remission
4.Hodgkin’s disease
a.in second or subsequent complete or partial remission
5.Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
a.in second or subsequent remission
b.with adverse risk prognostic features in first remission
6.Acquired bone marrow failure syndromes
7.Other haematological malignancies for which UD bone marrow transplantation is indicated
