Treatment Arms
ArmTypeDescription
Arm AEXPERIMENTALInduction therapy: Patients receive idarubicin i.v. over 20 minutes on day 1 and 3, oral tretinoin twice daily on day 1-28 (max. up to day 60) and arsenic trioxide i.v. over 2 hours on day 5-28 (max. up to day 60). In case of morphological CR and regenerated blood counts, consolidation therapy should be started within 2-4 weeks after documented CR. Consolidation therapy: Patients receive oral tretinoin twice daily on day 1-14. Treatment with tretinoin repeats every 4 weeks for up to 7 courses. Patients also receive arsenic trioxide i.v. over 2 hours on days 1-5 in week 1-4. Treatment with arsenic trioxide repeats every 8 weeks for up to 4 courses.
Arm B (standard chemotherapy)ACTIVE_COMPARATORInduction therapy: Patients receive idarubicin i.v. over 20 minutes on day 1,3,5 and 7, oral tretinoin twice daily on day 1-28 (max. up to day 60). In case of morphological CR and regenerated blood counts, consolidation therapy should be started within 2-4 weeks after documented CR. Consolidation I: IDA 5 mg/m2 i.v. day 1-4 Ara-C 1000 mg/m2/3h i.v. day 1-4 ATRA 45 mg/m2 p.o. day 1-15 Consolidation II: MTZ 10 mg/m2 i.v. day 1-5 ATRA 45 mg/m2 p.o. day 1-15 Consolidation III: IDA 12 mg/m2 i.v. day 1 Ara-C 150 mg/m2 every 8h i.v. day 1-5 ATRA 45 mg/m2 p.o. day 1-15 Maintenance (duration 7 cycles = 2 years; one cycle lasts 106 days): 6-MP 50 mg/m2 p.o. Cycle 1-7: day 1-91 (followed by 15 days of ATRA on days 92-106) MTX 15mg/m2 i.m./p.o. Cycle 1-7: once weekly for 91 days (followed by 15 days of ATRA on days 92-106) ATRA 45 mg/m2 p.o. Cycle 1-6: day 92-106 Cycle 7: without ATRA Administration (treatment break of 6-MP and MTX during ATRA administration)
