Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and clofarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying clofarabine when given together with cytarabine to see how well they work in treating patients with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

- measure
- Measure Patient Response to High-dose Cytarabine Followed by Clofarabine in Adult Patients With Relapsed or Refractory AML
- timeFrame
- 5 weeks
- description
- Response to the therapy is measured by a defined improvement in Neutrophil and platlet counts, along with improved cellularity of bone marrow biopsy (\>20% with maturation of all cell lines), \<5% blasts, auer rods must not be detectable and extramedullary leukemia or soft tissue involvment must not be present.
