Brief summary
This trial aims to find the MTD of Venetoclax when added to Fludarabin, Amsacrine and Ara-C + Treosulfan and to evaluate whether the addition of Venetoclax to sequential conditioning with FLAMSA + Treosulfan is safe for allogeneic blood stem cell transplantation in patients with high-risk MDS, CMML or sAML (FLAMSAClax)
Interventions
DRUGVenetoclax
Study treatment consists of the conditioning therapy including 6 or 8 days of Venetoclax treatment.
DRUGAmsacrine
Amsacrine is part of the conditioning therapy and is administered on day -10 to -7 before allogeneic blood stem cell transplantation
DRUGAra-C
Ara-C is part of the conditioning therapy and is administered on day -10 to -7 before allogeneic blood stem cell transplantation
DRUGTacrolimus
Tacrolimus is used for prophylaxis of acute and chronic graft-versus-host-disease according to institutional standards.

Inclusion criteria
* Subjects must voluntarily sign and date an informed consent, approved by an independent ethics committee (IEC), prior to the initiation of any study-specific procedures * MDS, CMML or sAML according to WHO classification (revised version 2016) with a marrow blast count \>5% and/or high-risk genetic features (e.g. bad risk karyotype according to the IPSS-R / ELN classification or presence of unfavorable somatic mutations (e.g. TP53, RUNX1, IDH1, IDH2, KMT2A, DEK-NUP214 or RAS pathway mutations including NRAS, KRAS, PTPN11, CBL, NF1, RIT1 or KIT), falling into the high or very high risk category of the IPSS-R or IPSS-M) any time between diagnosis and inclusion * Untreated except for oral Hydroxyurea or a maximum of 2 courses of treatment with Azacytidine or Decitabine alone or in combination with Venetoclax * Identification of a well matched (10 out of 10, A, B, C, DR, DQ) donor either related or unrelated * Age ≥18 * HCT-CI ≤ 3 (except former treatment of a solid tumor) * ECOG performance status ≤ 2 at study entry * no active, uncontrolled infection at inclusion * able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements * Female of childbearing potential (FCBP) must: * Understand that based on embryo-foetal toxicity studies in animals venetoclax may harm the foetus when administered to pregnant woman * Agree to have a medically supervised pregnancy test at Screening and within 72 hours prior treatment start * Avoid becoming pregnant while receiving Venetoclax * Use effective contraception during treatment with Venetoclax and for at least 1 months after the last dose, * Understand that is currently unknown whether venetoclax may reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives, and therefore women using hormonal contraceptives should add a barrier method * Notify her study doctor immediately if there is a risk of pregnancy * Males must: * agree to use condoms, even if the male subject has undergone a successful vasectomy, from Study Day 1 through at least 30 days after the last dose of study drug. * Agree to notify the investigator immediately, if pregnancy or a positive pregnancy test occurs in his partner during study participation
