We analyzed the safety and efficacy of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) combined with cytarabine and mitoxantrone in the treatment of 21 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (11 refractory and 10 in second relapse). Patients' median age was 52 years (range 36-68); all patients had previously been treated with anthracycline-containing regimens (daunorubicin and idarubicin). GO at a dosage of 3 mg/m2 was administered as a 2-h intravenous infusion on days 1 and 14, cytarabine at 100 mg/m2 on days 1-7, and mitoxantrone at 12 mg/m2 on days 1-3. Infusion-related events were observed in 15 of 21 (71.4%) patients. The incidence of grade 1 or 2 elevations of bilirubin and hepatic transaminases was 4 of 21 (19%) and 3 of 21 (14.2%). In response to chemotherapy, 2 of 21 (9.5%) achieved complete remission and 2 of 21 (9.5%) achieved complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery, with an overall remission rate of 4 of 21(19%); median survival of these 4 patients was 7 months. Four of 21 patients (19%) died during aplasia after chemotherapy; no veno-occlusive disease occurred. No treatment-related cardiotoxicity or cerebellar toxicity was observed. In our experience, the addition of GO to mitoxantrone and cytarabine is feasible in refractory or second relapse acute myeloid leukemia patients but yields a low response rate when used as a third-line treatment.
