Study Description

Brief Summary

This study focus on the comparison of CAG regimen to the low dose cytarabine therapy in elderly AML patients who are unfit or unwilling to receive intensive chemotherapy.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: CAG regimen (Aclacinomycin, cytarabine, with/w/o G-CSF)
  • Drug: low dose cytarabine
N/A

Detailed Description

Low dose cytarabine remains to be the choice of standard for elderly AML patients who are unfit or unwilling to receive intensive treatment. CAG regimen, which is a combination of aclacinomycin,low dose cytarabine±G-CSF is used often in elderly AML patients in China. It is proved effective and safety in some pilot studies,while there is no prospective,randomized study yet.
