Outcomes for acute myeloid leukemia remain poor, and treatment decisions must consider not just quantity, but also quality of life (QOL). We conducted a systematic review of studies in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that incorporated patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures. PubMed and PsycINFO were searched for articles published from January 2000 through...
BACKGROUND
Although outcomes for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have improved over time, they remain poor overall, and toxicity from both the disease and its treatment can affect quality of life (QOL). One barrier to including QOL endpoints in clinical trials is the lack of a disease‐specific QOL instrument that can efficiently capture the major QOL deficits in this population.
METHODS
A cross‐sectional...
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who receive intensive induction or re-induction chemotherapy with curative intent typically experience prolonged cytopenias upon completion of treatment. Due to concerns regarding infection and bleeding risk as well as significant transfusion and supportive care requirements, patients have historically remained in the hospital until blood count recovery—a...
