Summary

This study tests whether giving two common heart medications (a beta blocker and an ACE inhibitor) before and during intensive chemotherapy can prevent heart damage in people newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). About 70 participants will be randomly assigned to receive the heart drugs or not. The main goal is to see if this approach reduces the risk of heart problems caused by the chemotherapy drug daunorubicin.
