What treatments are available for older patients before a stem cell transplant?

During the ASCO 2022 Congress, Know AML spoke with Nicholas Short, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, US. We asked, What treatments are available for older patients before a stem cell transplant?

Short begins by discussing the effect lower intensity combinations have had on the treatment of older patients with acute myeloid leukemia, including azacitidine/decitabine + venetoclax. Short outlines patient groups that might be prescribed this combination therapy, followed by transplant, and data that support this treatment choice.
