Purpose
A multicenter randomized trial evaluating the possible benefit of androgens during post remission therapy in an attempt to improve the outcome of AML in older patients.All patients received the ICL regimen as induction and were randomized to receive, after achieving CR or PR, a maintenance therapy including or not androgens. Patients randomized with androgens additionally received 10 to 20 mg according to body weigh of norethandrolone daily for up to 2 years

Detailed Description:
Induction Therapy:
- Idarubicin, 8mg/m2 d1-5; Cytarabine, 100mg/m2 d1-7 and Lomustine, 200mg/m d1
- if CR or PR: randomisation = maintenance therapy including or not androgens
Maintenance therapy :
- 6 courses of reinduction with idarubicin (8mg/m2 d1) and cytarabine (100mg/m2d1-5, subcutaneously) every 3 months, and, between these courses, a continuous regimen of methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine.
- Patients randomized with androgens additionally received 10 to 20 mg according to body weigh of norethandrolone daily for up to 2 years
