  • at least three months before confirmed diagnosis of AML . [Patients may
  • have received no prior treatment or treatment with conventional care
  • regimens, including best supportive care , low dose cytarabine, intensive
  • chemotherapy, hypomethylating agents (azacitidine, decitabine), or other
  • therapies (e.g. lenalidomide)] for precedent MDS/AHD.
  • Stratum A or B General Inclusion Criteria:
  • 1. Written informed consent prior to study-specific screening procedures.
  • 2. Age = 18 years old
  • 3. Patients with refractory AML (according to Estey 1996b)], whose
