Traditionally, the goal of AML therapy has been to induce remission through intensive chemotherapy, maintain long-term remission using consolidation therapy, and achieve higher rates of a cure by allogeneic transplantation in patients with a poor prognosis. However, for the elderly patients and those with comorbidities, the toxicity often surpasses the therapeutic benefits of intensive chemotherapy. Consequently, low-intensity therapies, such as the combination of a hypomethylating agent with venetoclax, have emerged as promising treatment options for elderly patients. Given the rise of low-intensity therapies as the leading treatment option for the elderly, it is increasingly important to consider patients' age and comorbidities when selecting a treatment option. The recently proposed comorbidity-based risk stratification for AML allows prognosis stratification not only in patients undergoing intensive chemotherapy, but also in those receiving low-intensity chemotherapy. Optimizing treatment intensity based on such risk stratification is anticipated to balance treatment efficacy and safety, and will ultimately improve the life expectancy for patients with AML.
