The 2016 revision to the World Health Organization classification of myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemia

TL;DR: The 2016 edition of the World Health Organization classification of tumors of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues represents a revision of the prior classification rather than an entirely new classification and attempts to incorporate new clinical, prognostic, morphologic, immunophenotypic, and genetic data that have emerged since the last edition.

Genomic and epigenomic landscapes of adult de novo acute myeloid leukemia

Timothy J. Ley, +138 more
TL;DR: It is found that a complex interplay of genetic events contributes to AML pathogenesis in individual patients and the databases from this study are widely available to serve as a foundation for further investigations of AMl pathogenesis, classification, and risk stratification.

Intensive postremission chemotherapy in adults with acute myeloid leukemia. Cancer and Leukemia Group B

TL;DR: The concept of a dose-response effect for cytarabine in patients with AML who are 60 years of age or younger is supported and the results with the high-dose schedule in this age group are comparable to those reported in similar patients who have undergone allogeneic bone marrow transplantation during a first remission.
