Abstract
Understanding the global epidemiology of AML is critical for assessing therapeutic demand and informing healthcare resource allocation. This study estimated current and future AML incidence in 27 countries, described AML survival trends in the United States, and calculated average years of life lost (AYLL). Incidence rates were age-standardized using rates from IARC’s Cancer Incidence in Five Continents and SEER databases and ranged from 0.70 to 3.23 cases per 100,000 persons. Crude incidence rates were projected from 2024 to 2040; growth varied from +1% to +46%. Median overall survival was derived from SEER databases and increased from 4 to 11 months over the last 40 years. Median AYLL of 18.6 years was estimated for 27 countries. This study projected significant growth in new AML diagnoses over the next two decades. Despite improvements in survival over the last four decades, median survival among AML patients remains poor highlighting the need for novel treatments.
