Abstract
Elderly and/or unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia have historically been challenging to manage as they were ineligible for what was considered standard of care treatment with induction chemotherapy. The emergence of venetoclax with hypomethylating agents or low-dose cytarabine has substantially improved outcomes in the frontline setting with manageable toxicity. However, this regimen can be challenging to deliver given its differences from standard intensive chemotherapy. In this review, we summarize the landmark trials that established venetoclax-based combinations as a new standard of care for patients with acute myeloid leukemia not suitable for intense chemotherapy, provide practical clinical pearls for managing patients on these therapies, and offer a brief overview of modifications to these regimens under development to improve their efficacy and/or applicability.
