About this study

Official title: Comparisiom of Standard (SD) Therapy and Non-standard (NSD) Therapy in Elderly Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

It is known that treatment outcome could be positively associated with treatment intensity. However, tolerance of chemotherapy decreases in the elder, some patients could not tolerate standard (SD) therapy and even died of side effect, and overall survival (OS) might not be prolonged. Whether all elder acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients could benefit from SD therapy, or some should receive reduced-intensity therapy or even only supporting care remains controvertal. In this multi-center study, we are going to evaluate the benefit of SD and non-SD (NSD) therapy in elder AML patients.

It is known that treatment outcome could be positively associated with treatment intensity. However, tolerance of chemotherapy decreases in the elder, some patients could not tolerate standard (SD) therapy and even died of side effect, and overall survival (OS) might not be prolonged. Whether all elder acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients could benefit from SD therapy, or some should receive reduced-intensity therapy or even only supporting care remains controvertal. SD therapy is definited as the treatment regimen must follow NCCN guildline and chemotherapy intensity could not be reduced. Non-SD (NSD) therapy is definited as patients receiving reduced-intensity therapy or only supporting care. In this multi-center study, we are going to evaluate the benefit of SD and NSD therapy in elder AML patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall survival

    The time from AML diagnosis to patients death or last folloeing-up.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Relapse-free survival

    The time from AML patients obtaining CR to patients relapse or last folloeing-up.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Relapse incidence

    Relapsed patients account for all the diagnosed AML patients.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Treatment-related mortality

    The incidence of patients dying of treatment related complication.

    Measured: 1 year
