Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The trial is designed to identify whether the addition of these new agents will improve the efficacy of the current standard treatment, without excessive toxicity. ;Secondary Objective: During the trial we will also capture data about response to treatment, early (30-day and 8-week) mortality and any additional information relating to one of the drugs in particular (for instance, cardiac assessments). Supportive care requirements will also be noted, to inform the health economics aspect of treatment.;Primary end point(s): • Relapse Free Survival at 12 months • Response (CR, CRi, PR) achievement, and reasons for failure • 30 day and 8 week mortality • Toxicity, both haematological and non-haematological • Supportive care requirements

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): NA;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: NA
