Abstract

Prognosis for patients with AML remains dismal. Despite multiple clinical trials across several decades, little improvement for the therapy of non-APL AML was noted. However, over the last couple of years, several new therapies have demonstrated efficacy in the therapy of patients with AML. Several of those have been approved by the FDA for AML therapy. These include CPX-351, midostaurin, gemtuzumab ozogamicin, enasidenib and ivosidenib. Our goal in this review is to summarize currently available data on these new therapies and discuss the rapidly evolving treatment landscape of AML.
