Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- DISEASE INCLUSION CRITERIA:
- In general this encompasses all haematological disorders where a volunteer unrelated donor transplant is clinically indicated.
- Acute, chronic leukaemia or myelodysplastic syndrome for which allogeneic transplantation is considered as the best treatment option.
- Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) with one of the following characteristics:

- Leukocytes at diagnosis \> 50 x109/l (except in cases with good prognosis molecular rearrangements for which leukocytes should be \> 100 x 109/l)
- Myelodysplastic syndromes
- International Prognosis Index (IPSS) above 1 (intermediate group 2 or high risk)
- IPSS 0 or 0.5 in the presence of cytopenias requiring treatment.
- Therapy related AML or MDS in first CR
- AML or MDS in second (CR2) or subsequent CR

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
