Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Prospective multicenter, open-lab el, observational, single arm study of decitabine. Subjects will be elderly patients with newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve AML who are unfit to receive and not candidate for intensive induction chemotherapy (iIC)

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Decitabine

Decitabine 20mg/m2 will be given IV daily on Days 1-5 in 28-day cycles. Treatment should be given for at least 4 cycles in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression requiring alternative therapy.

Beyond 4 cycles, treatment should continue as long as the subject continues to benefit based on investigator's judgment of no definitive progression.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Newly diagnosed and therapy-naïve AML (bone marrow or peripheral blood blast counts ≥20%)
2. 65 years of age or older
3. Taking informed consent with signature and date
4. Not eligible for iIC based on either:

i) ≥75 years of age ii) comorbidity iii) secondary AML iv) poor performance (ECOG ≥2) v) Poor-risk by NCCN Guideline version 1.2015 vi) subject's choice (refusal for iIC) investigator's judgement incompatible with iIC

Exclusion Criteria

1. Candidate for iIC at the time of enrollment
2. Promyelocytic leukemia, or AML with t(15;17) or PML/RARα rearrangement
3. AML with t(9;22) or BCR/ABL rearrangement
4. Leukemia central nervous system involvement
5. Extramedullary myeloid sarcoma without bone marrow involvement
6. Prior treatment with decitabine or azacitidine of any cause
