Combination Chemotherapy With or Without Monoclonal Antibody Therapy in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

Status unconfirmed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Leukemia

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known if chemotherapy is more effective with or without monoclonal antibody therapy for acute myelogenous leukemia. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed acute myelogenous leukemia.
