Brief Summary

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

ATRA is the standard of care for all patients with APL. The use of lower doses of ATRA has been shown since the 1990s to achieve therapeutic efficacy with doses of 25mg/m2/day. ATO demonstrated considerable effectiveness in this disease. More recently, an attenuated regimen has been proven to be effective. In this study we intent to demonstrate the effectiveness of combined therapy of low-dose ATRA plus attenuated dose ATO.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The use of lower doses of ATRA has been shown since the 1990s to achieve therapeutic plasma concentrations sufficient to achieve therapeutic efficacy with doses of 25mg/m2/day. ATO alone demonstrated considerable effectiveness in this disease. More recently, an attenuated regimen has been proven to be effective in inducing similar remission rates and achieving prolonged survival, also demonstrating a reduction in associated toxicities, mainly hepatic and cardiac when using this new scheme.

The investigators will conduct a phase 1/2, non-randomized, single center, non-comparative clinical trial to demonstrate the effectiveness of combined therapy of low-dose ATRA plus attenuated dose ATO which is accessible to a population with limited resources while maintaining acceptable efficacy and safety.
