Expectations of Serious Adverse Events at the End of Life of Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia Who Receive Salvage Therapy.

CONCLUSIONS: Baseline expectations of serious AEs at the end of life of patients with AML undergoing ST were established. The AE profiles of new investigational interventions or therapies could be compared with what would be expected in such circumstances from the combined effect of disease progression, expected complications of the AML therapy, and therapies delivered in previous historical contexts.
