Abstract:
Venetoclax is a novel bcl-2 targeted drug for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Clinical guidelines at home and abroad recommend the regimen of venetoclax combined with azacitidine as the standard of care for the newly diagnosed AML patients which are unfit for intensive chemotherapy. The drugs in this regimen are currently included in the China's national reimbursement drug list. A working group consisting of 25 Chinese leukemia experts reached a consensus using the Delphi method and developed guidance covering 9 clinical issues and 25 expert recommendations. These recommendations included the key clinical issues and provided practical guidance for Chinese doctors to standardize the usage of venetoclax-based regimens for treatment of newly diagnosed unfit AML.
