Clinical Details

Official title: Combined Retinoic Acid,Arsenic Trioxide and Chemotherapy for Newly-diagnosed Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia: Chinese National Multi-center Randomized Study

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: disease free survival

Secondary outcome: overall survival

Detailed description: In this prospective randomized study for patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia. For induction, all patients will be randomized into two groups which received treatment composed of retinoic acid combined with arsenic trioxide versus retinoic acid combined with chemotherapy. For consolidation, the experimental group recieved 2 cycles of ATRA+arsenic and control group recieved two cycles of ATRA+idarubicin or daunorubicin. After consolidation, all patients achieved molecular remission will recieved 5 cycles of maintenance treatment with ATRA and arsenic. In case of intermediate or high-risk disease, cytarabine will be add for consolidation.
