Description:
This randomized phase II trial studies how well treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate, with or
without total body irradiation before donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients
with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Giving chemotherapy, such as
treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate, and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell
transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune
system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the
patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor
effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response
against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus before and mycophenolate mofetil after the
transplant may stop this from happening.

Purpose
This randomized phase II trial studies how well treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate, with or
without total body irradiation before donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients
with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Giving chemotherapy, such as

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the better of two treosulfan-based conditioning regimens in patients with
myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), by comparing 6-month
progression-free survival.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the effects of two conditioning regimens on changes in gene expression profiles,
and evaluate the association of gene expression profiles and disease relapse.
II. Determine the incidence of progression-free survival at 1 year and 2 years after
hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).
III. Evaluate overall survival (OS) at 6 months, at 1 year and at 2 years after HCT.
IV. Determine the incidence of grades II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
V. Determine the incidence of chronic GVHD.
VI. Determine donor chimerism around days +28 and +84.
CONDITIONING REGIMEN:
Arm A: Patients receive treosulfan intravenously (IV) over 2 hours on days -6 to -4 and
fludarabine phosphate IV over 30 minutes on days -6 to -2.
Arm B: Patients receive treosulfan and fludarabine phosphate as in Arm A and undergo low-dose
total-body irradiation (TBI) on day 0.
TRANSPLANT: Patients in both arms undergo allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC)
transplant or bone marrow transplant on day 0.
GVHD PROPHYLAXIS: Patients with a related donor receive tacrolimus orally (PO) every 8 or 12
hours on days -3 to 56 with taper to day 180. Beginning 4-6 hours after PBSC infusion,
patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil PO every 12 hours to day 28. Patients with an
unrelated donor receive tacrolimus PO every 8 or 12 hours on days -3 to 100 with taper to day
180. Beginning 4-6 hours after PBSC infusion, patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil PO
every 8 hours to day 40 with taper to day 96.
NOTE: Patients with related donors eligible for FHCRC protocol 2545 may receive cyclosporine
IV, instead of tacrolimus, beginning on day -3 to day 50 with a taper to day 180.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically.

Measure: | Relapse Risk as Measured by Degree of Change in Gene Expression Profiles |
Time Frame: | Baseline and at day 0 within 6 hours of conditioning prior to transplant |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | Among genes identified whose expression is modified by conditioning, degree of change in expression will be evaluated to determine if it is correlated with relapse risk and offers improved prediction of relapse risk over that obtained with standard clinical parameters (cytogenetics, blast count, International Prognostic Scoring System score, minimal residual disease. To account for censoring and the competing risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM), the analysis will be a time-to-event analysis of relapse using Cox regression, with change in expression as a continuous covariate (on a log scale). 8 |
