IV Busulfan With Allo-BMT: Study for Patients With Acute Myelogenous Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving busulfan in a dose based on blood levels, along with a fixed (unchanging) dose of fludarabine, is more effective and causes fewer side effects for AML or myelodysplastic syndrome patients than the standard method of giving a fixed busulfan dose based on body size, along with a fixed dose of fludarabine. The safety of dosing based on blood levels will also be studied.
