Abstract

XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein) is an inhibitor of caspases 3 and 9 that is overexpressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and may contribute to chemoresistance. We report an open-label randomized phase II trial of reinduction chemotherapy with and without the XIAP antisense oligonucleotide AEG35156 in patients with AML who did not achieve remission with initial induction chemotherapy.
