Patient information material
Anticipated start date01/10/2007
Anticipated end date01/08/2012
Status of trialOngoing
Target number of participants2500
Interventions1. In Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia (APL) patients to compare idarubicin + All-Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) vs ATRA + arsenic
2. In non-APL patients to compare ADE alone vs ADE or DA each with Mylotarg at two different doses (5 arms):
2.1. ADE alone
2.2. ADE + Mylotarg (3 mg)
2.3. DA + Mylotarg (3 mg)
2.4. ADE + Mylotarg (6 mg)
2.5. DA + Mylotarg (6 mg)
3. Three vs four courses of total therapy
4. +/- CEP-701 (lestaurtinib) in FLT3 mutants
5. Dauno + clofarabine vs dauno + cloretazine vs fludarabine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and idarubicin (FLAG-Ida) in high risk patients
6. +/- mTOR inhibition in non-CBF, non-FLT3 mutant, in non-high risk patients

The treatment period is approximately 4 to 6 months.
Primary outcome measure(s)1. Complete Remission (CR), measured at approximately 1 month and if required approximately 6 weeks later i.e. after course 1 and/or 2.
2. CR duration
3. Relapse rate, monitored over 5 years
4. Deaths in CR monitored over 5 years
5. Overall survival (at 5 years)
6. Toxicity
7. Quality of life, measured at baseline and at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months for those in the APL section of the trial, and at 3, 6 and 12 months for patients in the minimal residual disease monitoring. The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer, Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer patients (EORTC QLQC-30) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Score (HADS) will be used.
8. Supportive care requirements
Secondary outcome measure(s)1. Detection of minimal residual disease
2. Correlation of serum inhibitory activity
Sources of funding1. Medical Research Council (decision pending)
2. Cephalon (providing arsenic trioxide and CEP-701)
3. Wyeth (providing Mylotarg® and temsirolimus)
4. Vion (providing cloretazine)
5. Bienvision (providing clofarabine)
