Longitudinal Outcome over Two Decades of Unrelated Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation for Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia: An ALWP/EBMT Analysis

Arnon Nagler et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the outcomes of unrelated transplantation for primary refractory/relapsed AML patients, comparing two cohorts from the years 2000-2009 and 2010-2019. The results showed that the outcomes of unrelated transplantation for patients with refractory/relapsed AML have improved in the last two decades, rescuing about one third of the patients.

Summary: This article reviews the treatment and management strategies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), focusing on individualized intensive therapy, recently approved novel therapies, and post-remission therapy selection. It also discusses the management of relapsed and refractory AML patients, targeted treatment, and allogeneic stem cell transplant. Non-intensive treatment for older and unfit patients, as well as the integration of palliative care in AML management, are also reviewed.

Mayo Clinic experience with 1123 adults with acute myeloid leukemia

Kebede H. Begna et al.

Summary: Between 2004 and 2017, Mayo Clinic treated a total of 1123 adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia, with various treatment options such as intensive chemotherapy, lower intensity chemotherapy, and supportive care. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant showed the best survival rate, while certain risk factors like age over 60 years and specific genetic mutations were associated with shorter survival outcomes.
