    Low-Risk Patients will receive Texas childern's Hospital practice standard for de novo AML.

Study Details

This research study investigates the tolerability of substituting two cycles of chemotherapy into the standard pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) chemotherapy treatment regimen for patients with newly diagnosed AML at intermediate-risk (IR) and high-risk (HR) of relapse. The goal is to achieve similar or better survival with chemotherapy cycles that are intensive but less likely to cause long-term complications. Patients will enroll on this trial at the end of their first induction cycle. The two cycles to be substituted are: * "Ida-FLA" (idarubicin+fludarabine/cytarabine) as Induction 2 * "VIA" (venetoclax+idarubicin+cytarabine) as Intensification 1 of the HR treatment regimen, and Intensification 2 of the IR treatment backbone. Researchers will evaluate side effects and outcomes for up to three years after enrollment. Participants will also have the opportunity to participate in optional research studies including patient surveys and blood and bone marrow sample testing.

Arms

  • Experimental: Intermediate Risk (IR) AML
    Patients will receive Ida-FLA as Induction 2, cytarabine/etoposide ("AE") as Intensification 1, VIA as Intensification 2, and Capizzi AraC as intensification 3.
  • Experimental: High risk (HR) AML
    Patients will receive Ida-FLA as Induction 2 and VIA as Intensification 1. These patients will then proceed on to a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation if an appropriate donor is found, otherwise will receive 2 more cycles of chemotherapy following the IR regimen.
  • Other: Low risk (LR)
    Low risk pediatric AML patients will receive standard of care chemotherapy but have the option to participate in correlative studies

Primary Outcome Measure

Tolerability rate of Ida-FLA [ Time Frame: From Day 1 of Ida-FLA through up to 50 days after completion of Ida-FLA ]
