Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This clinical trial studies idarubicin, cytarabine, and pravastatin sodium in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as idarubicin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Pravastatin sodium may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving idarubicin and cytarabine together with pravastatin sodium may kill more cancer cells.

Arms (1)
- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Treatment (pravastatin sodium, idarubicin, and cytarabine)
- description
- Patients receive pravastatin sodium PO QD on days 1-8, idarubicin IV over 10-15 minutes on days 4-6, and cytarabine IV continuously on days 4-7. Treatment repeats every 28-56 days for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Number of Participants With Good Complete Remission (CR)
- timeFrame
- 35 days
- description
- A Bayesian design intended to simultaneously monitor efficacy and toxicity will be used. Definition of Good CR: Conventional criteria for CR (absolute neutrophil count \> 1,000/uL, platelet count \> 100,000/uL, marrow with \<5% morphologic blasts) and additionally the requirements that marrow Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) - detected by 10-color flow cytometry or conventional cytogenetic evaluation - be absent and that the above blood counts be obtained.
