研究概览
简要总结
This study will add interleukin-2 (IL-2) to a regimen of post-remission therapy consisting of high-dose ara-C. Patients with AML in first remission will receive 3 cycles of high-dose ara-C followed by continuous infusion and bolus interleukin-2 (IL-2). We, the researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, plan to evaluate the immunologic effects of such treatment in these patients.
详细描述
Patients will receive standard remission induction therapy with daunorubicin at a dose of 45 mg/m2/day for 3 days and continuous infusion cytarabine at a dose of 200 mg/m2/day for 7 days.
Those patients who enter a remission status and have preserved liver and kidney function will then receive 3 cycles of post-remission therapy that will consist of high-dose cytarabine at a dose of 3000 mg/m2 every 12 (q12) hours on days 1, 3 and 5 (total of 6 doses).
Patients who are still in remission will receive interleukin-2 (IL-2) upon count recovery at a dose of 8.1 X 10^5 U/m2/day by continuous infusion for 10 weeks. In addition, patients will receive bolus IL-2 at a dose of 6 X 10^5 U/m2 by intravenous bolus weekly for 6 doses through day 63.
Patients will be seen on a weekly basis while on treatment for examination and bloodwork.
At the end of treatment, patients will have a physical exam and bloodwork performed monthly for two years, then 4 times per year for two years.
