Approach to the Older Patient with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
1Division of Hematology/Oncology, Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, MI, USA.
Purpose Of Review:
This study aims to review the challenges of treating AML in older patients, the spectrum of genomic aberrancies in this cohort, and discuss treatment options for newly diagnosed AML in this patient population.
Recent Findings:
Greater understanding of biological underpinnings of AML and availability of newer, effective, targeted therapies have allowed us to move away from intensification of chemotherapy, to prioritize better tolerability while still maintaining efficacy. Increasing knowledge of the genomic complexity and adverse karyotypes in older AML patients drives the need for ongoing investigations of targeted and lower-intensity therapies in the frontline, relapsed/refractory setting, and post-remission.
