Rory Shallis, MD, Yale Cancer Center, New Haven, CT, shares outcomes for patients discharged before absolute neutrophil count (ANC) recovery following intensive induction therapy for newly diagnosed (ND) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Those who met specific criteria could be safely discharged early without detriment to overall survival (OS), although this came with a slight increase in infection rates. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
