Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether low-dose cytarabine in combination with arsenic trioxide is more effective than low-dose cytarabine alone in achieving complete remission in elderly patients (≥60 years of age) with acute myeloid leukemia.

Primary Outcome

The primary efficacy variable was the percentage of subjects in each treatment group who achieved complete remission after treatment with study drug. Complete remission was defined as: 1) Less than 5% blasts in normocellular bone marrow sample. 2) No blasts in bone marrow sample containing Auer rods. 3)Clearance of previous extramedullary disease. 4)Normal values for absolute neutrophil count (at least 1000/microliter), platelet count (at least 100,000/microliter), without platelet transfusions,
