Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to provide data on the activity of a standard daunorubicin, cytarabine, and etoposide (ADE) induction plus epigenetic priming with decitabine as assessed by standard measures of complete remission (CR), leukemia free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS), as well as, on minimal residual disease (MRD). It will also provide necessary data on the safety and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of decitabine in pediatric patients that is currently unavailable.

Primary Outcome

Disease response measurements were based on bone marrow evaluations (biopsies, aspirates, or both) performed by local pathology laboratories and assessed by study investigators. A designation of CR required that the participant achieve a morphologic leukemia-free state and have an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than 1000 per microliter (/mcL) and a platelet count greater than 100,000/mcL.
