Program overview
During this webinar, our expert transplant and hematology/oncology speakers discuss implications for practice change in the pharmacological treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and optimal timing for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), as well as ways to improve access to care. Sample patient cases illustrate key concepts through practical examples.
This discussion is tailored for hematologists/oncologists who refer out for transplant and cell therapies as well as for transplant physicians to highlight the role of sharing care to improve patient access and outcomes.
