Would you consider holding treatment with hypomethylating agents and venetoclax in elderly patients diagnosed with AML who achieve CR and are MRD negative?
Answer from: Medical Oncologist at Academic Institution
At this point there is no data demonstrating that azacitidine venetoclax is curative even in those who achieve MRD negative CR. As such, we continue cycles of therapy with timing and duration of therapy adjusted based on count recovery as long as there is continued evidence of response.
