Official title
Randomized Study of Procrit vs no Procrit in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or High-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) Undergoing Frontline Myelosuppressive Induction/Consolidation Chemotherapy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if Procrit (epoetin alfa) will help decrease the need for blood transfusions in patients who have Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or High-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and are receiving chemotherapy. Researchers also want to learn about the remission rates (rates of recovery) in patients with cancer who have received treatment with epoetin alfa. The safety and effectiveness of this therapy will also be studied.
