DA
ACTIVE COMPARATORTwo courses of DA in accordance with the Swedish National treatment program (reduced doses): In case one induction course was given: First consolidation course: daunorubicin 45 mg/m2 x 1 (iv infusion) day 1-3 and cytarabine 1000 mg/m2 x 2 (iv infusion) day 1-4. Second consolidation course: daunorubicin 45 mg/m2 x 1( iv infusion) day 1-2 and cytarabine 200 mg x 2 (fixed dose sc injection) day 1- 5. In case two induction courses were given: First consolidation course: daunorubicin 45 mg/m2 x 1( iv infusion) day 1-2 and cytarabine 200 mg x 2 (fixed dose sc injection) day 1- 5. Second consolidation course: cytarabine 200mg x 2 (fixed dose sc injection) day 1-5.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects \>65 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form
- A confirmed diagnosis of AML according to the 2008 WHO classification
- This includes: Bone marrow aspirate with a good clot or biopsy for morphology, flow cytometry, cytogenetic analysis, and in case of normal cytogenetics, molecular genetic analyses including FLT3-ITD, NPM-1 and CEBP A
- Bio-banking of leukemic cells at diagnosis performed (according to guidelines of the Swedish National AML biobank).
- A documented CR or CRp achieved after one or two induction courses.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects who are not considered to be candidates to complete the consolidation therapy due to medical or psychological reasons.
- Subjects who have taken any investigational drugs or participated in an interventional clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening.
- Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia
- Patients with t(8;21) or inv(16)
- CNS leukemia
- Patients with a previous diagnosis of MDS, i.e. AML preceded by a diagnosed MDS
- Subjects who are candidates for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT)
- Another cancer diagnosis with a life expectancy of less than two years
