“…There has been considerable improvement in overall probability of survival (pOS) for patients in first relapse since 1987, improving from a 5-year-pOS of 21–23% in the 1980s and 1990s [ 11 , 12 , 13 ] to 36–39% in patients’ relapse prior to 2014 [ 9 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Studies consistently demonstrate that duration of first remission (CR1), age at relapse (less than ten years), favorable cytogenetics such as core binding factor (CBF) AML and good treatment response after re-induction therapy predict a more favorable outcome [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ].…”
