Study for Patients With Newly Diagnosed, High-risk Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia

Official Title

A Randomized Phase III Study to Compare Arsenic Trioxide (ATO) Combined to ATRA and Idarubicin Versus Standard ATRA and Anthracyclines-based Chemotherapy (AIDA Regimen) for Patients With Newly Diagnosed, High-risk Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia

Brief Summary

      Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a rare subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
      characterized by consistent clinical, morphologic, and genetic features. According to the FAB
      classification APL is designated as"M3 leukemia" and assigned to the WHO defined type of AML
      with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities, "acute promyelocytic leukemia with
      t(15;17)(q22;q12), (PML/RARα) and variants".

      Despite the dramatic progress achieved in frontline therapy of APL with ATRA plus
      anthracycline-based regimens, relapses still occur in approximately 20% of patients.
      Moreover, these regimens are associated with significant toxicities due to severe
      myelosuppression frequently associated with life-threatening infections and potentially
      serious late effects including development of secondary MDS/AML. In a recent randomized
      clinical trial in low/intermediate-risk APL (WBC ≤ 10 GPt/l APL0406 trial) a combination of
      arsenic trioxide (ATO) and ATRA has been shown to result into better survival with
      significantly lower toxicity rates compared to the standard ATRA + idarubicin (AIDA) therapy.
      Inspired by the results of this trial the investigators intend to perform a randomized study
      in high-risk APL (WBC at diagnosis > 10 GPt/l) comparing standard AIDA-based treatment with
      ATO/ATRA combination including low-doses idarubicin during induction. The investigators
      propose a modified ATO/ATRA protocol with the addition of two doses of IDA (50% compared to
      standard AIDA induction) for induction because of the anticipated need of adding
      anthracyclines to control hyperleukocytosis and to achieve long-term disease control in this
      high-risk APL population. This is followed by 4 cycles of ATO/ATRA consolidation therapy. As
      in the APL0406 study for low/intermediate-risk patients the investigators expect less severe
      hematologic toxicity and treatment-related mortality resulting in an improved outcome for
      patients in the experimental arm. Furthermore, from the start of consolidation, these
      patients (in contrast to the standard arm) can be treated on an outpatient basis, which is
      also considered to be associated with an improved quality of life. The study will be
      conducted as a European intergroup study.

Study Arms / Comparison Groups

 Arm A
Description:  Induction therapy: Patients receive idarubicin i.v. over 20 minutes on day 1 and 3, oral tretinoin twice daily on day 1-28 (max. up to day 60) and arsenic trioxide i.v. over 2 hours on day 5-28 (max. up to day 60).
In case of morphological CR and regenerated blood counts, consolidation therapy should be started within 2-4 weeks after documented CR.
Consolidation therapy: Patients receive oral tretinoin twice daily on day 1-14. Treatment with tretinoin repeats every 4 weeks for up to 7 courses. Patients also receive arsenic trioxide i.v. over 2 hours on days 1-5 in week 1-4. Treatment with arsenic trioxide repeats every 8 weeks for up to 4 courses.
