Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) can precede the development of AML, but can also persist after complete remission (CR).1 In rare cases, non-leukemic CH can emerge after remission.2 Patients with AML that have post-CR CH have delayed platelet and neutrophil recovery.3 Unfortunately, the long-term clonal dynamics of post-CR CH in patients with AML during consolidation or maintenance therapies are not well understood.
At the 61st American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting & Exposition, Tomoyuki Tanaka, Department of Leukemia, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, US, discussed the results from a study analyzing the clonal behavior of post-CR CH during consolidation and maintenance therapies, in samples from patients with AML after remission.4
