Abstract
A study of over 300 adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia has been completed by member institutions of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group. A complete remission rate of 51% was achieved. The FAB classification was used with an overall concordance of 61% between investigators and the repository center. Acute monocytic leukemia (M5) and acute erythroleukemia (M6) accounted for 12% of the cases accessioned and had the worst median survival with no patients surviving 2 years. The longest response duration occurred in hypergranular promyelocytic leukemia (M3).Entities:
