The important role of transplantation in AML: improving outcomes for patients & the value of pre-transplant MRD
Apr 5, 2023
Charles Craddock and Christopher Hourigan discuss the important role of transplantation in AML, the value of pre-transplant MRD, and the management approaches for high-risk patients. They also explore strategies to improve outcomes for older AML patients through conditioning regimens and the introduction of cellular or drug therapies.

Quick takeaways
- A simple blood test prior to stem cell transplantation for AML can stratify patients into different risk categories based on molecular subgroups, allowing for more personalized treatment decisions.
- Collecting detailed clinical annotations and conducting curated randomized controlled trials is crucial for generating robust evidence in hematological oncology and guiding clinical decision-making in the management of MRD-positive patients pre-transplant.
Deep dives
Pre-transplant MRD as a clinical test
The pre-measure study explored the use of minimal residual disease (MRD) as a test in clinical practice for patients undergoing stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). By focusing on molecular subgroups, such as Flit3 and NPM1 mutations, the study demonstrated that a simple blood test prior to transplant could stratify patients into different risk categories, allowing for more personalized treatment decisions. The study also highlighted the potential of next-generation sequencing as a more sensitive approach for MRD detection.
