Abstract
Greater insight into the role of biologic disease factors in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has led to more effective and personalized treatment options. Data presented at the NCCN 2023 Annual Congress: Hematologic Malignancies reflected the rapidly evolving treatment landscape, showcasing the significance of combination therapies and precision medicine in managing different AML subtypes. For patients deemed fit for induction with favorable-risk cytogenetics, the standard of care has moved to combining the 7 + 3 regimen with gemtuzumab ozogamicin. Alternatively, for patients with FLT3-mutated disease, a more intensified approach involving the addition of midostaurin or newer therapies, such as quizartinib, to standard induction treatment has shown improved outcomes. For patients with AML who are unfit for standard induction, treatments combining hypomethylating agents with venetoclax, as well as therapies involving IDH1/2 and FLT3 inhibitors for specific genetic subtypes, offer encouraging alternatives in managing the disease.
