Summary
Background
Access to allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) remains challenging for older patients (aged >60 years) with acute myeloid leukaemia. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of venetoclax plus decitabine as first-line therapy and bridge to transplantation in this patient population.
Methods
Several national agencies, including the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), recommend the prescription of exercise for patients diagnosed with cancer.1,2 The evidence base for this recommendation is derived from studies that showed exercise-related improvements in patient-reported outcomes (PROs), treatment-associated adverse effects, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), and overall physical functioning.3-6 Additionally, exercise may have direct anticancer effects and indirect effects by synergizing standard cancer therapies.7,8 Despite these benefits, the implementation of exercise
