MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The present study will be a multicenter, prospective phase III-study comparing dose-reduced versus standard conditioning followed by allogeneic stem cell transplantation from related or unrelated donors in patients with MDS or secondary AML.;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): The hypothesis is that a dose-reduced conditioning will reduce the non-relapse mortality from 40% to 20% at one year after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
