Measure
Bendamustine
n=25 Participants
Starting dose 50 mg/m\^2 intravenously, over 2 hours twice on Days 1-4 of every 4 week study cycle, with dose escalation of 25 mg/m\^2 for 3 levels.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
75 mg/m^2

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 - 24 week cycles (up to 8 weeks)

A complete response (CR) is defined as normalization of the bone marrow and peripheral blood counts with \</= 5% marrow blasts in a normo-or hypercellular marrow, with a granulocyte count of \>/= 10\^9/L and a platelet count of \>/=100 X 10\^9/L. A partial response (PR) was defined as for CR, but with only \>/=50% reduction of marrow blasts and to a range of 6%-25%. A marrow complete response was defined as a reduction of marrow blasts to \</=5% but without recovery of peripheral counts.
