Immunotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia: from allogeneic stem cell transplant to novel therapeutics.

abstract：:We review results of intensive chemotherapy (IC) obtained in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Overall, the complete remission (CR) rates and median CR duration obtained with IC are low in MDS, especially when compared to results obtained in de novo AML treated with the same chemotherapy regimens; very few MDS patients...
