Efficacy of FLAG Regimen for the Treatment of Patients With AML
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The long-term efficacy of chemotherapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been significantly improved in recent years. The combination of anthracycline plus cytarabine (Ara-C) has been a standard induction regimen for patients with AML. However, the optimal consolidation therapy after induction chemotherapy has not reached a consensus. The FLAG regimen consisting of fludarabine and high-dose cytarabine combined with G-CSF which is one of the first-line consolidation treatment options for relapsed and refractory AML. This study conducted a retrospective analysis of the intensive treatment of AML with the FLAG regimen from January 2007 to May 2018 in our hospital to evaluate the efficacy of the FLAG regimen. To provide the basis for the choice and timing of treatment for patients with AML treated with the FLAG regimen.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall survival [3 years]
For evaluating the FLAG effect, OS was defined from consolidation randomization to death from any cause (censored at last contact).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Relapse-free survival [2 years]
Relapse Free Survival defined as the time from onset of FLAG treatment for AML to the first event (death or relapse).
- Severe adverse events [45 days]
Severe adverse events during consolidation treatment
- Complete Remission Rate [2 months]
- Event-Free Survival Rate [2 years]
