GO was approved for the treatment of relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the United States (US) in 2000. However, GO was withdrawn from the US market in June 2010, because a large-scale clinical trial failed to show additive or synergistic effects with conventional chemotherapy for newly diagnosed AML. GO is currently available only in Japan. However, several large clinical studies have demonstrated beneficial effects of GO when added to chemotherapy for AML in recent years;therefore, reconsideration of GO availability is gaining attention. Therefore, the role and efficacy of GO as monotherapy or in combination therapy for de novo or relapsed AML should be positively investigated.展开更多

Cases of AML secondary to myelodysplastic syndrome or myeloproliferative disorder were included. CR was achieved in 6 of 9 patients, and 2 of 6 responders became long-term survivors. No non-responders survived longer than 6 months. Toxicity was mild, and the median duration of myelosuppression was less than 30 days. Stomatitis, nausea and sepsis occurred as non-hematological adverse events. Although our sample size was too small to permit definitive conclusions, GO reinduction should be considered for patients who relapse or do not achieve CR after the first cycle of induction chemotherapy. Some AML subtypes may respond more robustly than others, and further investigation is warranted.展开更多
