PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of decitabine priming followed by sequential mitoxantrone hydrochloride/etoposide/cytarabine (MEC) chemotherapy in adults with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine, within the limits of a Phase 1/2 study, disease response and duration of remission.
II. Identify biomarkers (e.g., deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA] methylation and/or gene expression changes) associated with treatment responses.
OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of decitabine followed by a phase II study.
Patients receive decitabine intravenously (IV) on days -9 to -5 (dose level 1), days -11 to -5 (dose level 2), or days -14 to -5 (dose level 3).
INDUCTION THERAPY: Patients receive mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV on days 1-5, etoposide IV on days 1-5, and cytarabine IV on days 1-5. Patients achieving complete response (CR) or CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp) may receive up to 2 courses of induction therapy and up to 2 courses of consolidation therapy.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for up to 5 years.

Experimental: Treatment (decitabine, MEC)
Patients receive decitabine IV on days -9 to -5 (dose level 1), days -11 to -5 (dose level 2), or days -14 to -5 (dose level 3). INDUCTION THERAPY: Patients receive mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV on days 1-5, etoposide IV on days 1-5, and cytarabine IV on days 1-5. Patients achieving CR or CR with CRp may receive up to 2 courses of induction therapy and up to 2 courses of consolidation therapy. |

- Most Efficacious and Tolerated Dosage of Decitabine (Period 1) [ Time Frame: through day 45 ]MTD (most tolerated dose) of decitabine, measured in number of dose limiting toxicities. MTD defined as the highest dose in which the incidence of dose limiting toxicity is < 33%, graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (Phase I)
- Remission Rate Including CR and CRp [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
Complete remission (CR) and Complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp) categorized according to criteria recommended by International Working Groups:
Complete resolution of disease-related symptoms and signs including palpable hepatosplenomegaly; hemoglobin level at least 110 g/L, platelet count at least 100x10^9/L, and absolute neutrophil count at least 1.0 x10^9/L. In addition, all 3 blood counts should be no higher than the upper normal limit; Normal leukocyte differential; Bone marrow histologic remission defined as the presence of age-adjusted normocellularity, no more than 5% myeloblasts, and an osteomyelofibrosis grade no higher than 1.
- Duration of Relapse-free Survival (for Patients Achieving CR or CRp) [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Categorized according to criteria recommended by International Working Groups.
- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Survival measured as of day of last contact. Categorized according to criteria recommended by International Working Groups.

| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
| Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Prior diagnosis of "high-risk" myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (>= 10% blasts) or AML other than acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t(15;17) (q22;q12) or variants according to the 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) classification; patients with biphenotypic AML are eligible
- Relapsed/persistent disease according to standard criteria requiring salvage therapy; outside diagnostic material is acceptable as long as peripheral blood and/or bone marrow slides are reviewed at the study institution; flow cytometric analysis of peripheral blood and/or bone marrow should be performed according to institutional practice guidelines
- Patients with prior autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are eligible if relapse occurs provided symptoms of graft-versus host disease are well controlled with stable use of immunosuppressive agents
- Treatment-related mortality (TRM) score =< 9.2 as calculated with simplified model
- Should be off any active therapy for AML with the exception of hydroxyurea for at least 14 days prior to study registration unless patient has rapidly progressive disease, and all grade 2-4 non-hematologic toxicities should have resolved
- May have previously received monotherapy with demethylating agents for MDS or AML
- May have previously received chemotherapy with MEC for MDS or AML
- Patients with symptoms/signs of hyperleukocytosis or white blood cells (WBC) > 100,000/uL can be treated with leukapheresis or may receive up to 2 doses of cytarabine (up to 500 mg/m^2/dose) prior to enrollment
- Bilirubin =< 2 x institutional upper limit of normal (IULN) unless elevation is thought to be due to hepatic infiltration by AML, Gilbert's syndrome, or hemolysis (assessed within 7 days prior to study day 1)
- Serum creatinine =< 1.5 x IULN (assessed within 7 days prior to study day 1)
- Left ventricular ejection fraction >= 40%, assessed within 3 months prior to study day 1, e.g. by multi gated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiography, or other appropriate diagnostic modality and no clinical evidence of congestive heart failure; if the patient had anthracycline-based therapy since the most recent cardiac assessment, cardiac evaluation should be repeated if there is clinical or radiographical suspicion of cardiac dysfunction, or if the previous cardiac assessment was abnormal
