  • It is feasible to add CPI-613 to high dose ARA-C and mitoxantrone. No additional toxicity was observed.
  • Approximately 50% of patients responded to this combination.
  • Older patients and patients with high-risk cytogenetics typically do not respond well to high dose ARA-C and mitoxantrone. With the addition of CPI-613, the response rate was about the same in these groups compared with the entire population.
