9. No severe organ function abnormalities
10. Not included in other first-line trials
11. Cardiac ejection fraction ≥ 45% assessed by echocardiography or multiple-gated acquisition (MUGA).
12. Female patients of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and agree to use reliable methods of contraception upon enrollment, during the treatment period and for 3 months following the last dose of investigational drug or cytarabine, whichever is later
13. Male patients must use a reliable method of contraception (if sexually active with a female of child-bearing potential) upon enrollment, during the treatment period, and for 3 months following the last dose of investigational drug or cytarabine, whichever is later
14. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with a genetic diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia
2. Age \<18 years or \>70 years
3. ECOG performance status of 3 or 4
4. Prior treatment for AML, except for the following allowances:

   c) Leukapheresis d) Treatment for hyperleukocytosis with hydroxyurea
5. Blastic phase of bcr/abl chronic myeloid leukemia.
6. Presence of an associated active and/or uncontrolled malignancy:

   \- Patients with another neoplastic disease, for whom the Investigator has a clinical suspicion of active disease at the time of enrollment. Note: Patients with adequately treated early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia are eligible for this study. Hormonal or adjuvant therapies will be allowed for breast cancer or prostate cancer as long as they are on a stable dose for at least 2 weeks before the first dose.
7. Known active and not controlled hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. In the event of a positive viral load, please consult with the Sponsor
8. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (HIV testing is not required as part of this study)
9. Presence of any severe psychiatric disease or physical condition that, according to the physician´s criteria, contraindicates the inclusion of the patient into the clinical trial
10. Serum creatinine ≥ 250 μmol/l (≥ 2.5 mg/dL) (unless it is attributable to AML activity)
11. Bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, or Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) \> 3 times the normal upper limit (unless it is attributable to AML activity)
12. Uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease, including any of the following:

    1. Symptomatic bradycardia of fewer than 50 beats per minute, unless the subject has a pacemaker;
    2. QT Comparison of Fridericia's (QTcF) \>450 msec at Screening. Note: QTcF will be derived from the mean of triplicate readings;
    3. Diagnosis of or suspicion of long QT syndrome (including family history of long QT syndrome);
    4. Systolic blood pressure ≥180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mmHg;
    5. History of clinically relevant ventricular arrhythmias (e.g., ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or Torsade de Pointes)
    6. History of a second (Mobitz II) or third-degree heart block (subjects with pacemakers are eligible if they have no history of fainting or clinically relevant arrhythmias while using the pacemaker)
    7. An ejection fraction \<45%
    8. History of uncontrolled angina pectoris or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to Screening
    9. History of New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4 heart failure
    10. Right bundle branch and left anterior hemiblock (bifascicular block), complete left bundle branch block
13. History of hypersensitivity to any excipients in the quizartinib/placebo tablets
14. Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding
15. Any patients with known significant impairment in gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of quizartinib.
16. Active acute or chronic Graft-Versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) requiring prednisone \>10 mg or equivalent corticosteroid daily.
