Older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) face a dismal prognosis. Although venetoclax-based therapy has led to improved outcomes among unfit older patients with AML, it is not curative and its efficacy and long-term outcomes among fit older patients is unclear. This review provides insights into factors that influence treatment choices among older patients with AML and what we would need to know for venetoclax-based therapy to replace standard intensive 7 + 3 induction therapy.
老年急性髓系白血病(AML)患者预后不佳。尽管基于维奈克拉的疗法已使不适合强化疗的老年AML患者的预后得到改善,但该疗法并非治愈性疗法,且其在适合强化疗的老年患者中的疗效及长期预后尚不清楚。本综述深入探讨了影响老年AML患者治疗选择的因素,以及为使基于维奈克拉的疗法取代标准的7+3诱导强化疗,我们还需要了解哪些信息。
