The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if metal detoxification (with calcium disodium edetate \[Ca-EDTA\] and dimercaptosuccinic acid \[DMSA\]) during standard therapy can help improve outcomes in patients with intermediate-risk, high-risk, or secondary AML compared to standard therapy alone. Researchers think lowering the level of metals found in the blood/bone marrow may help to control the disease and/or improve the response to chemotherapy.
