Popis: The “Age of Induction” led to breakthroughs in the treatment landscape for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and was immediately followed by a long period during which few drugs were approved. That all changed a few years ago, when 2017 began the “Age of Abundance.” With many treatment options now available, new management strategies have emerged for patients with secondary AML, as well as for older patients with AML. Treatment can now be tailored to these special populations, and providers should be aware of the unique supportive care considerations associated with these newer AML therapies.
