Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age ≤ 25 years at time of enrollment
  • High-risk AML, as defined by one of the following:
  • AML in CR1 (defined as \<5% blasts in BM by morphology and flow cytometry) having at least one of these high-risk features:
  • Mutations associated with high risk disease (Appendix A). Other high-risk features not explicitly stated in Appendix A can be considered after discussion/approval with the protocol chair/team
  • MRD-positive at the end of Induction I chemotherapy (defined as flow cytometry ≥ 0.1% blasts)
  • AML in ≥CR2 (defined by \<5% blasts in BM by morphology and flow cytometry)
  • Recovery from prior cycle of chemotherapy as defined by an absolute neutrophil count ≥ 500/mm3
  • AML secondary to select germline marrow failure disorders (with exception of Fanconi Anemia) may be eligible but require approval from Protocol Chairs prior to enrollment.
  • Performance status ≥70% (Lansky for \<16 years; Karnofsky for ≥16 years)
  • Adequate major organ system function as demonstrated by:
  • Renal: Creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2 by Cockcroft-Gault formula, Schwartz formula, or nuclear GFR study (Table 3)
  • Hepatic: Total bilirubin \<2 mg/dL (unless due to Gilbert syndrome) and ALT and AST \< 5x ULN
  • Cardiac: LVEF at rest ≥50% or SF ≥27% (by MUGA or ECHO)
  • Pulmonary: DLCO, FEV1, and FVC ≥ 50% of predicted corrected for hemoglobin. For patients \<7 years of age or those unable to perform PFTs: O2 Sat \>92% on room air by pulse oximetry and on no supplemental O2 at rest
  • The patient, patient's parent, guardian, or legal representative can provide written informed consent

Exclusion

  • Active extramedullary disease
  • Unresolved/ongoing and serious viral, bacterial, or fungal infection despite appropriate treatment
  • Positive pregnancy test in a female of child-bearing potential (FCBP)
  • Inability to comply with medical therapy or follow-up
  • Prior allogeneic transplant
  • Patients with Fanconi Anemia and Down syndrome
