Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Comparison of two dose levels of Idarubicin in the consolidation phase of chemotherapy for AML. All patients receive the same induction therapy with Idarubicin, high dose cytarabine, and etoposide. Complete responders are then randomised, and receive 2 courses of consolidation therapy with conventional dose cytarabine, etoposide, and Idarubicin at either standard dosage (9mg per square metre daily for 2 days) or in the experimental arm 9mg per square metre daily for 3 days.

Timepoint [1] 239 0
At 3 years.
Secondary outcome [1] 538 0
To document the toxicity and overall survival.
Timepoint [1] 538 0
At 3 years of this treatment approach.
Secondary outcome [2] 539 0
To evaluate the effects of the investigational treatment on quality of life.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. A morphological diagnosis of AML by WHO criteria, confirmed by special stains, immunophenotyping and cytogenetics. All clinico-pathological subtypes will be eligible, except for AML with t(15;17) or variants, or core-binding factor AML (t(8;21) or inv16 or variants). 2. ECOG performance status 0 to 3 inclusive. 3. Absence of serious cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic or renal disease. A serum creatinine <200 mmol/L and serum bilirubin < 2.5 times the upper limit of normal, unless medically correctable. 4. Normal left ventricular ejection fraction, according to institutional criteria. If the clinical circumstances require that treatment must be given urgently before this can be ascertained, the absence of clinical cardiac impairment is acceptable, provided that a normal left ventricular ejection fraction is confirmed prior to the first consolidation cycle. 5. No previous treatment for AML or history of cancer (other than basal cell skin cancer or carcinoma of the cervix in situ, or other localized cancer treated by surgical excision only more than 5 years earlier without evidence of recurrence in the intervening period ). 6. No contraindication to the use of the study drugs. 7. Treatment must be given at an affiliated ALLG centre, with approval of the protocol by the institutions Human Ethics Committee, or equivalent body. 8. Written informed consent must be obtained from each patient prior to registration and start of treatment.
