Therapeutic value

Current treatment options EMA: Treatment for AML is complex and depends on a number of factors including the extent of the disease, whether it has been treated before, and the patient’s age, symptoms and general state of health. At the time of designation, the main treatments for AML were chemotherapy (medicines to treat cancer) and haematopoietic (blood) stem-cell transplantation (a complex procedure where the patient receives stem cells from a matched donor to help restore the bone marrow).
Therapeutic value Possible added value
Substantiation EMA gaaft aan dat er mogelijke meerwaarde is. Expertopinie: mogelijkheid tot hoger doseren met minder toxiciteit.
