Navigating a Paradigm Shift Venetoclax Treatment Redefines Landscape of Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by the accumulation of malignant myeloid progenitor hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. Recent studies have shown promising results with the use of small molecule inhibitors and targeted therapy in the treatment of patients with AML. One such molecule is venetoclax, which has been approved in AML by the FDA in combination with hypomethylating agents or low-dose cytarabine.
