Abstract
Prior experience indicated that use of higher doses of cytarabine during induction for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a histone deacetylase inhibitor resulted in high response rates. S1203 was a randomized multicenter trial for previously untreated patients aged 18-60 with AML which compared daunorubicin and cytarabine (DA), idarubicin with higher dose cytarabine (IA) and IA with vorinostat (IA?+?V). The primary endpoint was event free survival (EFS). 738 patients were randomized: 261 to each DA and IA arms and 216 to the IA?+?V arm. 96, 456, and 150 patients had favorable-, intermediate-, and unfavorable-risk cytogenetics, respectively. 152 were NPM1 and 158 FLT3 mutated. The overall remission rate was 77.5% including 62.5% CR and 15.0% CRi. No differences in remission, EFS, or overall survival were observed among the 3 arms except for the favorable cytogenetics subset who had improved outcomes with DA and postremission high dose cytarabine. A trend towards increased toxicity was observed with the IA and IA?+?V arms. The use of higher dose cytarabine during induction therapy in younger patients with AML, with or without vorinostat, does not result in improved outcomes.
