  • Unequivocal diagnosis of untreated de novo AML according to WHO diagnostic criteria (at least 20% blasts in the bone marrow), with FAB classification other than M3 (acute promyelocytic leukemia), documented by bone marrow aspiration (or biopsy in case of dry tap) (not supervening after other myeloproliferative disease or myelodysplastic syndromes of more than 6 months duration)
  • WHO performance status 0-3
  • Adequate renal (serum creatinine \< 2 x the institutional Upper Limit of Normal (ULN)) and liver (total serum bilirubin \< 2 x ULN; serum ALT and AST ≤ 3 x ULN) function, unless considered due to organ leukemic involvement
  • Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) \>50%, as determined by echocardiogram
  • Absence of severe concomitant neurological or psychiatric diseases and congestive heart failure or active uncontrolled infection
  • Absence of any psychological, familial, sociological and geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and the follow-up schedule.

  • Blast crisis of chronic myeloid leukaemia
  • AML supervening after other myeloproliferative disease
  • AML supervening after antecedent myelodysplastic syndromes of more than 6 months duration
  • Other progressive malignant diseases. However, secondary AML following previously cured malignancies may be included as well as secondary AML following previous exposure to alkylating agents or radiation for other reason
  • Inadequate renal or liver function (metabolic abnormalities \> 3 times the normal upper limit)
  • Severe heart failure requiring diuretics
  • Ejection fraction \< 50%
  • Uncontrolled infections
  • WHO performance status = 4
  • Severe concomitant neurological or psychiatric diseases
  • Patients who are pregnant or adults of reproductive potential not employing an effective method of birth control. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 48 hrs prior to administration of chemotherapy. Post-menopausal women must be amenorrhoeic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential. Male and female patients must agree to employ an effective barrier method of birth control throughout the study and for up to 3 months following discontinuation of study drug.
