Abstract
Since 2017, targeted therapies combined with conventional intensive chemotherapy have started to improve outcome of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, even before these innovations outcomes with intensive chemotherapy have improved, which has not yet been extensively studied. Thus, we used a large pan-European multicenter dataset of the HARMONY Alliance to evaluate treatment-time dependent outcomes over two decades. In 5359 AML patients, we compared the impact of intensive induction therapy on outcome over four consecutive 5-year calendar periods from 1997 to 2016. During that time, the 5- year survival of AML patients improved significantly, also across different genetic risk groups. In particular, the 60-day mortality rate has dropped from 13.0% to 4.7% over time. The independent effect of calendar periods on outcome was confirmed in multivariate models. Improvements were documented both for patients.
期刊介绍:
Haematologica is a journal that publishes articles within the broad field of hematology. It reports on novel findings in basic, clinical, and translational research.
Scope:
The scope of the journal includes reporting novel research results that:
Have a significant impact on understanding normal hematology or the development of hematological diseases.
Are likely to bring important changes to the diagnosis or treatment of hematological diseases.
