Self Study 2023 Release II: Oral Agents for the Management of Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive and biologically heterogeneous hematologic malignancy, remains a challenging disease to treat and has a high rate of relapse despite responding to initial therapy. Traditionally, cytotoxic chemotherapy has been the mainstay of therapy, which is associated with profound and prolonged cytopenias. Recent advances in the development of targeted oral therapies have transformed the landscape of AML treatment in both the initial and relapsed/refractory settings. Oral chemotherapy agents offer not only novel mechanisms to target molecular mutations in AML but also potential options for elderly patients who are otherwise unfit to receive intensive cytotoxic chemotherapy.
