AML   

Questions discussed in this category


Have you changed your practice given BMT-CTN 1506/Morpho results? Would you utilize maintenance therapy in patients who achieve MRD- remission?

How does graft source, conditioning regimen, and indication for transplant affect your decision regarding G-CSF?

Do you re-challenge them? If so, what pre-medications do you give? Do you dose reduce the cytarabine? Or do you switch another regimen?

It used to be a contraindication for G-CSF use for AML patients, but currently, several protocols include it to decrease neutropenic duration.

I have heard <20% MRD. What about proceeding if patient is hypoplastic after chemotherapy?

Should the goal always be to proceed to a second transplant?
