Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: • Patients scheduled for mismatched allogeneic HCT • Unrelated donor with maximal 2 antigen or allelic mismatches in HLA-I or HLA-II • Age lower or equal 75, higher or equal 18 years • Patients Age below 50 if a HCT-CI score > 2 [acc. to Sorror et al., 2005] • Karnofsky Index >60% • Patients with: Acute myeloid leukaemia in CR (=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 30
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: • Patients with >5% blasts in BM at the time of transplantation • Progressive or chemorefractory disease • Less than 3 months after preceding HCT • CNS involvement with disease • Fungal infections with radiological progression after receipt of amphotericin B or active triazole for greater than 1 month. • Liver function abnormalities with bilirubin >2 mg/dL and elevation of transaminases higher 2x upper limit of normal. • Chronic active viral hepatitis • Ejection fraction grade II hypertension by CTC criteria • Creatinine clearance 800 mg/24 h • Respiratory failure necessitating supplemental oxygen or DLCO <30% • Allergy against murine antibodies • Known allergy/intolerance against sirolimus or one of it’s excipients • HIV-Infection • Female patients who are pregnant or breast feeding, or adults of reproductive potential not employing an effective method of birth control during study treatment and for at least 12 months thereafter.
