Referral to and receipt of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in older adults with acute myeloid leukemia.

Introduction: Recent data have shown improved outcomes in selected older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Nonetheless, practice patterns for referring and performing HSCT vary. We aimed to evaluate referral, utilization, and reasons for not referring/proceeding to HSCT in older adults with AML.
