pubmed-article:12210810pubmed:abstractTextArsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) has been found effective in the treatment in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APML). Most studies with As(2)O(3) involve patients with APML who have relapsed following standard therapy. Between January 1998 and July 2000, 14 patients were recruited for an ongoing trial of As(2)O(3) in the treatment of newly diagnosed APML. Arsenic trioxide was administered at a dose of 10 mg/day until complete remission (CR) was achieved. Afterward, a consolidation course and a maintenance schedule consisting of As(2)O(3) as a single agent were administered over 6 months. There were 3 early deaths related to intra-cerebral hemorrhage: two on day 3 and one on day 4. Of the 11 evaluable patients, one died on day 21 secondary to uncontrolled sepsis, while the remaining 10 (91%) have attained CR. The average time to CR was 52.3 days (range: 34-70 days). One patient developed an isolated central nervous system (CNS) relapse and subsequently went into a second CR following therapy with triple intrathecal chemotherapy, cranial irradiation, and an additional 4-week course of systemic As(2)O(3). This patient, as well as the remaining nine, has continued to remain in CR at a median follow up of 15 months (range: 2-33 months). Eight out of 10 patients achieved molecular remission at variable periods during their consolidation and maintenance schedules. One patient developed an ATRA syndrome and was administered daunorubicin (40 mg/day) for 2 days. The side effects with this therapy were minimal and did not require cessation of therapy in any patient. There was no significant hepatic toxicity. In our experience, arsenic trioxide is effective in inducing and maintaining remission in patients with APML with minimal side effects. The optimal regimen and total dose required need to be defined.lld:pubmed
