Optimizing Induction Chemotherapy Regimens for ND Elderly AML Patients Who Are Eligible for Intense Chemotherapy

Summary

The optimal induction chemotherapy regimen for newly diagnosed elderly AML patients who are eligible for intense chemotherapy is currently not well defined. Thus, we intend to conduct a multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial to compare the safety and efficacy of three different induction regimens (Ven+AZA vs DA/IA 3+7 vs DA/IA 2+5+VEN). A total of 90 patients will be enrolled in this study and segregated into thress groups with 30 in each group. Patients who achieve CR/CRi/CRh after using different induction regimens will receive the same consolidation and maintenance therapy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is recommended for patients in the high-risk group or those with persist MRD positivity. After completion of the treatment phase, patients entered the follow-up period.

6. The function of main organs should meet the following standards before treatment: Kidney: serum creatinine ≤ 2× upper limit of normal range (ULN); Liver: total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, AST and ALT ≤ 2.5× ULN; Heart: myocardial enzymes ≤ 2× ULN and normal ejection fraction by cardiac color doppler ultrasound

Exclusion Criteria:
