Study of older adults with AML getting intensive treatment
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This study follows people aged 60 and older with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are receiving strong chemotherapy. It aims to learn more about their health outcomes and better understand the disease in this age group.

This study looks at whether geriatric (age-related health) evaluations help doctors choose better treatment for newly diagnosed AML (a type of leukemia). It may help translate older adults’ needs into a clearer, safer treatment plan.
This study uses a geriatric assessment to choose the best treatment for people aged 60 and older with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The goal is to tailor therapy based on your overall health and function.
This non-interventional study follows adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to better understand the disease and how patients do in real-world care. It may help researchers compare outcomes across different types of AML, but you would not receive a study treatment just for joining.
This trial looks at certain chemical changes in blood cells of two groups of people aged 60 or older: those having heart surgery (control group) and those with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who will be treated with a drug called azacitidine. The goal is to find markers that could help personalize treatment for AML in seniors.
This study compares different treatment intensities for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are less able to handle strong chemotherapy. It aims to find the best approach for people with health issues like heart or lung problems that make standard chemo riskier.
This trial tests a special preparation (conditioning) regimen for patients 55 or older with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are in first remission and receiving a half-matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant. It aims to make the transplant safer and more effective for this age group.
