[Management of AML in the elderly].

Elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia, ineligible for intensive chemotherapy, have long had a very poor prognosis and have always represented one of the main patient populations included in early phase clinical research trials. In recent years, many molecules have shown very interesting efficacy, often targeted therapies whose indication is based on a specific mutation profile (gilteritinib, ivosidenib), or mutation-independent (venetoclax), but also drugs whose indication is based on a specific biomarker (tamibarotene) or on new generation immunotherapies targeting macrophages (magrolimab) or other immune effectors while targeting leukemic cells resulting in forced immunological synapse (flotetuzumab) or activation of lymphocyte effectors associated with inhibition of the AML cells' stem signature in their microenvironment (cusatuzumab sabatolimab). All of these new strategies are discussed in this review, as well as the challenges of this frail population, which has benefited in recent months from all the major advances in the field, questioning in a second phase the modification of practices in younger patients.
