Acute myeloid Leukemia, patient aged 50 to 70 years
Brief summary
The main objective of this study is to compare conventional chemotherapy: daunorubicin and the Aracytine and this chemotherapy in combination with the monoclonal antibody used Mylotarg in divided doses.
Detailed description
Patients with a morphologically proven diagnosis AML and both the two following criteria: * Age \> 50 years and £ 70 years. * Not previously treated for their disease. Randomization will be centralized by phone : Arm A chemotherapy with daunorubicin and Aracytine or Arm B Daunorubicin and Aracytine and Mylotarg.
Interventions
Daunorubicin(DNR) induction : 60 mg/m2/day IV (30 min), Days 1,2,3 Daunorubicin (DNR)first consolidation : 60 mg/m2 day 1. Daunorubicin (DNR)second consolidation : 60 mg/m2 day 1 and day 2. Cytarabine induction :200 mg/m2/day by continuous infusion, Days 1 to 7. Cytarabine (AraC)first and second consolidation: 1g/m2/12h days 1 to 4.
