Description
Adult guidelines for acute myeloid leukaemia recommend determining a patient’s fitness before treating with standard therapy, but what does this mean, what are the implications, and how does this work in practice for both adults and children? To answer our questions on this topic, we’ve invited the expertise of Dr Courtney DiNardo, Associate Professor in the Department of Leukemia at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
