Study:
A Phase II Study Of Daunomycin And ARA-C, Both Given By Continous IV Infusion For Previously Untreated Non-M3 Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) In Patients Of Age 56 Or Older
Rationale:
Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells.
Purpose:
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining cytarabine and daunorubicin
in treating older patients who have acute myeloid leukemia that has not been previously
treated.
