AML
Conditions
Brief summary
In this open-label, randomized, prospective clinical trial, newly-diagnosed AML patients will be randomized into 2 groups. In the experimental arm, patients receive DA induction regimen with intermediate dose of cytarabine. In the control arm, patients receive DA regimen with standard dose of cytarabine.The efficacy of induction therapy containing intermediate dose of cytarabine is evaluated and adverse events associated with treatment are recorded.The primary end point is overall survival.
Detailed description
In this open-label, randomized, prospective clinical trial, newly-diagnosed AML patients will be randomized into 2 groups. In the experimental arm, patients receive DA induction regimen with intermediate dose of cytarabine at at a dose of 100mg/㎡/d on day 1-4 and 1g/㎡/Q12h on day5-7. In the control arm, patients receive DA regimen with standard dose of cytarabine at a dose of 100mg/㎡/d on day 1-7. Patients receive consolidation therapy containing high-dose cytarabine after achieved complete remission. Stem-cell transplantation is permitted for patients with intermediate- or poor-risk disease. The efficacy of induction therapy containing intermediate dose of cytarabine is evaluated and adverse events associated with treatment are recorded.The primary end point is overall survival.
Interventions
DRUGDaunomycin and Cytarabine (DA Regimen)

DRUGDaunomycin and Cytarabine (Intermediate Dose of DA Regimen)
Cytarabine at a dose of 100mg/㎡/d on day 1-4 and 1g/㎡/d on day 5-7. Daunomycin at a dose of 60mg/㎡/d on day 1-3.
