Article Synopsis
- Elderly AML patients (60-75 years) with poor-risk cytogenetics typically have poor outcomes with intensive chemotherapy, but the effectiveness of Venetoclax (VEN) combined with other treatments is being studied.
- A study at Institut Paoli Calmettes involved comparing 26 patients treated with VEN to a historical cohort of 90 patients treated with intensive chemotherapy, focusing on treatment response and overall survival rates.
- The findings suggested that VEN showed promising results, with a 69% composite response rate and a median overall survival of 7.9 months, making it a potential alternative to intensive chemotherapy for high-risk elderly patients.
