Musa Yilmaz, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, discusses the optimization of maintenance therapy to reduce the risk of relapse post-transplant or in patients who are not eligible for transplant with FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Dr Yilmaz mentions a clinical trial that shows an overall survival (OS) benefit of sorafenib post-allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in patients with AML, indicating this as an effective maintenance therapy strategy. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
