•2.3. Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

•2.5. Myelodysplastic syndrome
•2.6. Myeloproliferative disorder
•3. The recipient will receive one of the specified preparative regimens
•4. The recipient will receive either a bone marrow (HPC, Marrow) or blood progenitor cell (HPC, Apheresis) graft
•5. The recipient has an unrelated donor who with high resolution typing is either fully MHC matched at HLA-A, B, C and DRB1 with the recipient or is 1-antigen or 1-allele mismatched at A, B, C or DRB1 loci
•6. The recipient meets the transplant centre's criteria for unrelated donor allogeneic transplantation, either myeloablative or non-myeloablative (syn. RIC)
•7. The recipient has good performance status (Karnofsky greater than or equal to 60%)
•8. Recipient has given signed informed consent
•9. For the questionnaire component only, be able to complete the questionnaires in English or with a validated translation

•1. The recipient is human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive
•2. The recipient has a hypersensitivity to rabbit proteins or thymoglobulin pharmaceutical excipients, glycine or mannitol
•3. The recipient has an active infection (i.e. infection requiring oral or intravenous [IV] therapy)
•4. The recipient (if female and of childbearing potential) is pregnant or breast-feeding at the time of enrolment
•5. The recipient (if female and of childbearing potential) does not agree to use an adequage contraceptive method from the time of enrolment until a minimum of one year following transplant
•6. The recipient (if male and fertile) does not agree to use an adequate contraceptive method from the time of enrolment until a minimum of one year following transplant
•7. For the questionnaire component only, the recipient is unable to participate due to cognitive, linguistic or emotional difficulties (i.e. the recipient can participate in the main study but will be excluded from the questionnaire component)
