NCT ID: NCT00422032

Last Updated: 2012-07-27

Results Overview

Response defined as Complete Remission (CR): Normalization of blood counts with neutrophils \>/= 1 \* 10\^9/L and platelet counts \>/= 100 \* 10\^9/L, and marrow blasts \</=5%; Partial Remission: as above except for presence of 6-15% marrow blasts, or 50% reduction if \<15% at start of treatment; or Hematologic Improvement (HI): Complete Response (CR) with the exception of a lack of platelet recovery to \>/= 100 \* 10\^9/L. Repeat bone marrow samples collected every 1-3 cycles (4-8 week cycle).
