Chemo-immunotherapy versus chemotherapy in acute myeloid leukemia. Preliminary results.
Since November 1974, 44 patients with acute myeloid leukemia, in first remission were randomized between chemotherapy alone and chemotherapy plus BCG. There were 8 relapses and 7 deaths with chemotherapy, 7 relapses and 3 deaths with chemotherapy plus BCG. The survival of both groups is not, at the time, significantly different.
