Abstract:
AML is a biologically and clinically heterogeneous disease that is associated with poor overall long-term survival. The expanding knowledge of genomic landscape in AML as well as advancements in molecular and chemical biology over the pathway in AML. After 40 years of stagnancy, the recent approval of numerous novel oral anti-leukemic agents for the treatment of AML has changed both the armamentarium of medications and treatment paradigms. These agents have unique clinical considerations in terms of administration, adverse effects, and monitoring parameters which may differ from clinician's historical expectations. Understanding the data, indication and clinical considerations for such novel oral anti-leukemic agents is paramount for clinicians caring patients with AML.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
