چکیده

Attempts to overcome multi-drug resistance in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) have been limited by toxicities. To investigate the effect of reducing peak drug levels, we performed sequential phase II studies using continuous infusion daunorubicin and cytarabine without (AD) and then with ciclosporin (ADC) in older patients with AML. Untreated patients (age 56+ years) received daunorubicin (45 mg/m2 per day for 3 d) and cytarabine (200 mg/m2 per day for 7 d), both by continuous infusion, without (S0112, 60 patients) and then with (S0301, 50 patients) the addition of ciclosporin. Complete response (CR) rates were 38% on S0112 and 44% on S0301. Fatal induction toxicities occurred in 17% and 12% respectively, arising primarily from infection and haemorrhage. Median overall and relapse-free survival was 7 and 8 months for AD respectively, and 6 and 14 months for ADC. Patients with phenotypic or functional P-glycoprotein had somewhat higher CR rates with ADC than AD, although confidence intervals overlapped. In these sequential trials, continuous infusion AD produced CR rates comparable to those with bolus daunorubicin. The addition of ciclosporin did not cause undue toxicities, produced a similar CR rate, and possibly improved relapse-free survival. Further correlate analyses did not identify a subpopulation specifically benefitting from the addition of ciclosporin.

Interest in high-dose cytarabine (HDAC) for both induction and postremission therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) prompted the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) to initiate a randomized trial comparing HDAC with standard-dose cytarabine (SDAC) for remission induction of previously untreated AML and to compare high-dose treatment versus conventional doses for consolidation therapy. Patients le...

Randomized multicenter phase II study of flavopiridol (alvocidib), cytarabine, and mitoxantrone (FLAM) versus cytarabine/daunorubicin (7+3) in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.

Serial studies have demonstrated that induction therapy with FLAM [flavopiridol (alvocidib) 50 mg/m(2) days 1-3, cytarabine 667 mg/m(2)/day continuous infusion days 6-8, and mitoxantrone (FLAM) 40 mg/m(2) day 9] yields complete remission rates of nearly 70% in newly diagnosed poor-risk acute myeloid leukemia. Between May 2011-July 2013, 165 newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia patients (age 1...

The Cancer and Leukemia Group B conducted a phase 3 trial of the P-glycoprotein modulator PSC-833 in untreated acute myeloid leukemia patients aged 60 years and older. Patients were randomized to 1 of 2 regimens, with doses determined in a prior phase 1 study, consisting of cytarabine 100 mg/m(2)/d by 7-day infusion, with daunorubicin 60 mg/m(2) and etoposide 100 mg/m(2) daily for 3 days (ADE),...

CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS, INTERVENTIONS, AND THERAPEUTIC TRIALS Outcome after induction chemotherapy for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia is not improved with mitoxantrone and etoposide compared to cytarabine and daunorubicin: a Southwest Oncology Group study

Complete remission and long-term survival rates are low for older adults treated for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Because of favorable phase 2 data using mitoxantrone and etoposide, we conducted a phase 3 study (SWOG-9333) in which patients over 55 years of age with previously untreated AML were randomized to receive mitoxantrone (10 mg/m2 per day 5) and etoposide (100 mg/m2 per day 5) [ME], o...
