1. Age 61 years or more 2. Newly diagnosed AML with > 30% myeloid marrow blasts, either ``de novo`` or evolving from a MDS not previously treated with chemotherapeutic agents. 3. Absence of central nervous system involvement 4. No contraindications for intensive chemotherapy, defined as: a) prior congestive heart failure requiring treatment and/or left ventricular systolic ejection fraction below the normal range; b) a creatinine or bilirubin level more than twice the upper limit of normal, except if AML-related; c) a PS score of > 2; d) uncontrolled severe infection. 5. Informed consent.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: To evaluate 1. Overall survival (OS) at 2 years. Event for OS in both arms is death and patients are censored at the date of last contact if alive. 2. Disease-free survival (DFS) at 2 years. Events for DFS in both arms are death and first relapse (either AML or MDS recurrence). 3. Changes in quality of life from diagnosis in both arms.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate 1. Number and length of hospitalizations in the 2 arms in the 2-year post-remission period.;Primary end point(s): 1. Differences in OS at 2 years between 5-Aza and placebo arms. 2. Differences in DFS at 2 years between 5-Aza and placebo arms. 3. Differences in changes in QoL scores from diagnosis between 5-Aza and placebo arms.
