Inclusion Criteria

• 2nd relapse of AML
• refractory AML in 1st relapse (defined as = 20% blasts in the bone marrow after the 1st course of re-induction therapy according to the AML 2001/01 protocol)
• 1st early relapse (relapse within one year from initial diagnosis) of AML (only when the Relapsed AML 2001/01 study is closed)
• = 18 years old at initial diagnosis
• Lansky play score > 60; or Karnofsky performance status > 60
• Life expectancy > 6 weeks
• Calculated creatinine clearance = 90 ml/min/1.73m2 as calculated by the Schwartz formula for estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) where GFR (ml/min/1.73 m2) = k*Height (cm)/serum creatinine (mg/dl). k is a proportionality constant which varies with age and is a function of urinary creatinine excretion per unit of body size; 0.45 up to 12 months of age; 0.55 children and adolescent girls; and 0.70 adolescent boys.
• Liver function:
Serum bilirubin =1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
Aspartate transaminase (AST)/alanine transaminase (ALT) >2.5 × ULN
Alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 × ULN
• Able to comply with scheduled follow-up and with management of toxicity.
• For female patients with childbearing potential, a negative test for pregnancy is to be considered before entry on study
• Male and female patients must use an effective contraceptive method during the study and for a minimum of 6 months after study treatment.
• Written informed consent from patients or from parents or legal guardians for minor patients, according to local law and regulations

Exclusion Criteria

• Isolated extramedullary relapse, including isolated CNS-relapse
• Symptomatic CNS leukemia in case of combined relapse
• Relapsed/refractory acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL)
• Relapsed/refractory myeloid leukemia of Down Syndrome (ML DS)
• Other serious illnesses or medical conditions
• Current uncontrolled infection
• Evidence of cardiac dysfunction (shortening fraction below 28%)
• Pregnant or lactating patients
Prior or current history:
• Use of any anticancer therapy within 2 weeks before study entry. The patient must have recovered from all acute toxicities from any previous therapy (note: hematological toxicities do not need to be considered since the patient has overt leukemia).
• History of prior veno-occlusive disease (VOD)
• Hypersensitivity to cytarabine, clofarabine or liposomal daunorubicin
