Oncology and Therapy 2023 May 14
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can affect individuals of all ages, but is more common in older adults. It has been estimated that AML accounted for 1% of all newly diagnosed cancers in the USA in 2022. The diagnostic process varies depending on the presenting symptoms and the healthcare facility that patients attend at diagnosis. The treatment process is long and prone to complications, requiring experienced medical professionals and appropriate infrastructure. Treatment of the disease did not change greatly over the years until 2017 when targeted therapies were licensed. The treatment of AML is associated with significant direct economic costs. A number of obstacles originating both from individual patients and the healthcare system may be encountered during the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, which may negatively impact the optimal management of the disease process.
