简要总结
The purpose of this study is to find out if by giving a combination of 3 drugs the leukemia will go into complete remission (meaning the leukemia is completely gone), and to find out how long it stays away. The drugs used in this project are FDA approved and commercially available.
详细描述
The majority of new cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are diagnosed in patients older than 65 years of age. The median age of patients at time of diagnosis is 67 years. Standard therapies for AML often have significant toxicity and are poorly tolerated by this patient population. Treatment strategies for elderly patients with AML are limited. In those patients who do achieve complete remission, duration of remission tends to be short. Treatment at time of relapse is exceedingly difficult and outcomes are dismal. Thus, there is need for safer and more effective therapies for elderly patients with AML. This trial is a novel therapeutic combination of deferasirox (Exjade), cholecalciferol, and azacitidine in patients 65 years or older with newly diagnosed AML who are not fit for standard induction chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.

结局指标
主要结局
Complete Remission Rate
时间窗: up to 5 years
The Complete Remission Rate for all evaluable patients will be reported for the following treatment: azacitadine, vitamin D, and deferasirox (Exjade). The proportion of patients experiencing per-protocol CR will be calculated with a 90% exact confidence interval.
次要结局
- Number of Patients With Adverse Events(up to 5 years)
- Survival(up to 5 years)
- Duration of Remission(up to 5 years)
