Topoisomerase II Inhibitors: A Frontline Force Against AML

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a type of blood cancer, is a serious condition requiring aggressive treatment. This research reviews the role of topoisomerase II inhibitors, a class of drugs that target a key enzyme involved in DNA replication, in the treatment of AML. The authors discuss the clinical use of these agents, including their effectiveness in frontline and salvage therapy, and their combination with other drugs like cytarabine. They highlight the recent approval of several topoisomerase II inhibitors, including CPX-351, for the treatment of secondary and therapy-related AML. The authors also address the potential for using these inhibitors in combination with targeted therapies and immunotherapy. This research provides a comprehensive overview of the current and future applications of topoisomerase II inhibitors in the fight against AML.
