Trecondi (treosulfan) was approved for the following therapeutic use:
Adults with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
Trecondi (treosulfan) is indicated in combination with fludarabine as part of conditioning treatment prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) in adult patients with AML or MDS at increased risk for standard conditioning therapies.
Paediatric patients aged 1 month and older with malignant and non-malignant haematological diseases
Trecondi (treosulfan) is indicated in combination with fludarabine, with or without thiotepa, as part of conditioning treatment prior to allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) in paediatric patients older than one month with malignant and non-malignant diseases.
The epoxides formed alkylate nucleophilic centres of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and are able to induce DNA cross-links which are considered responsible for the stem cell depleting and antineoplastic effects.
- Trecondi (treosulfan) is to be included in the Black Triangle Scheme. The PI [Product Information] and CMI [Consumer Medicine Information] for Trecondi must include the black triangle symbol and mandatory accompanying text for five years, which starts from the date that the sponsor notifies the TGA of supply of the product.

An obligatory component of risk management plans is routine pharmacovigilance. Routine pharmacovigilance includes the submission of periodic safety update reports (PSURs).
Reports are to be provided in line with the current published list of EU [European Union] reference dates and frequency of submission of PSURs until the period covered by such reports is not less than three years from the date of the approval letter.
