Abstract
Despite major recent advances in the understanding of the molecular biology of adult acute myeloblastic leukemia(AML), the treatment of the disease remains challenging. This review summarizes literature in the field of curative chemotherapy for adult acute myeloblastic leukemia(AML). In particular, detailed analysis of curing leukemia in patients treated with risk-oriented chemotherapy and in patients with APL was presented. In addition, results using our curative chemotherapy approach for adult AML were reported. Lastly, future directions for curing adult AML were discussed.Entities:
