Quality of life and symptoms in acute myeloid leukaemia with early palliative care: real-world observational study.
Integrating palliative care early in acute leukemia treatment improves quality of life and symptom control, a pragmatic addition to aggressive cancer care.
This real-world observational study in AML patients demonstrates that early palliative care integration is associated with better QoL outcomes and symptom control. The finding supports a pragmatic, near-term implementable care model for one of the most aggressive hematologic malignancies.
