Summary

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of PSC-833 plus etoposide and mitoxantrone in treating children who have refractory or relapsed acute leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Some cancers become resistant to chemotherapy drugs. Combining PSC-833 with chemotherapy may reduce resistance to the drug and allow more cancer cells to be killed.
