Mini-consolidations or intermediate-dose cytarabine for the post-remission therapy of AML patients over 60. A retrospective study from the DATAML and SAL registries.

According to current recommendations, older AML patients in first complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy should receive consolidation with intermediate-dose cytarabine (IDAC). However, no study has demonstrated the superiority of IDAC over other regimen. In this retrospective study, we compared the efficacy of mini-consolidations (idarubicin 8 mg/m day 1, cytarabine 50 mg/m/12 h, day 1-5) and IDAC.
