Abstract

Key Points Clofarabine integrated in standard induction therapy for newly diagnosed AML reduces relapse probability but does not improve survival. Clofarabine improves survival in intermediate-risk AML categories ELN-1 and the AML genotype without NPM1 and without FLT3-ITD gene mutations.
