Summary

Older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have a small (\< 10%) chance of long-term survival. Despite the treatment of elderly AML patients with intensive chemotherapy, the survival has not been improved during the last decades.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether frontline therapy with a 10-day decitabine schedule provides a better survival than standard intensive combination chemotherapy in elderly AML patients (\>= 60 years).

Conditions

  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Interventions

DRUG

standard combination chemotherapy

1. Cycle 1 1. daunorubicin (60 mg/m²) infusion (15-30 min) for 3 days 2. cytarabine (200 mg/m²) continuous infusion (24 hrs) for 7 days. 2. Cycle 2 1. daunorubicin (45 mg/m²) infusion (15-30 min) for 3 days 2. cytarabine (200 mg/m²) continuous infusion (24 hrs) for 7 days. 3. Cycle 3 (mini-ICE) 1. idarubicin (8 mg/m²) infusion (15-30 min) for 3 days 2. cytarabine (100 mg/m²) continuous infusion (24 hrs) for 5 days 3. etoposide (100 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 3 days 4. Cycle 4 (mini-ICE) (optional) 1. idarubicin (8 mg/m²) infusion (15-30 min) for 3 days 2. cytarabine (100 mg/m²) continuous infusion (24 hrs) for 5 days 3. etoposide (100 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 3 days

DRUG

decitabine

1. Cycle 1: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 10 days 2. Cycle 2 1. if bone marrow (BM) blasts \< 5%: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 5 days 2. if BM blasts \>= 5%: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 10 days 3. Cycle 3 1. if BM blasts \< 5%: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 5 days 2. if BM blasts \>= 5%: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 10 days 4. Cycle 4-6: decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 5 days 5. Continuation therapy from Cycle 7 and until 'progression or toxicity': decitabine (20 mg/m²) infusion (1 hr) for 5 days or 3 days Note: All patients considered eligible for transplant should be consolidated with alloHCT once donor is available.
