EHA 2024 | Unmet needs in front-line therapy for patients with FLT3-mutated AML

Amir Fathi, MD, MPH, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, discusses the unmet needs in front-line therapies for patients with FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Key areas for improvement include increasing remission rates and facilitating transplants for younger patients. For older patients, the standard treatments—azacitidine or decitabine plus venetoclax—are less effective against FLT3-mutated AML, making remission more challenging to achieve. This interview took place at the 29th Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) in Madrid, Spain.
