  • Very early isolated CNS relapse (\<18 months from diagnosis); or,
  • Slow reinduction (M2-3 at Day 28) after relapse at any time.
  • Any third or subsequent CR.
  • Biphenotypic or undifferentiated leukemia in any CR or if in first relapse must have \< 25% blasts in bone marrow
  • MDS at any stage; prior therapies allowed
  • CML in chronic or accelerated phase; prior therapies allowed
