ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the efficacy and side effect of CAG (G-CSF, aclarubicin and cytarabine) priming chemotherapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Methods 54 patients with AML at diagnosis and relapse or MDS were'enrolled for the initial treatment with CAG regimen. Patients who have achieved complete remission (CR) were treated with various regimens. Results The total effective rate was 72.2 %, complete remission rate was 48.1% and partial remission rate was 24.1%. The incidence of granulocyte deficiency was 40.7 %(22/54). The severe infection rate was 24.1%(13/54). One case died of function damage in liver. The study includes 36 patients below 60 years, 18 patients above 60 years, and overall effective cases are 28 (77.8 %), 11 (61.1%),respectively. There was significant difference (P <0.05). Conclusion CAG regimen is effective and well tolerated in remission for AML and MDS-RAEB.
