What can be done to treat AML if it doesn’t go into remission or comes back?

Dr. David Steensma, expert on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) explains that some cases of AML do not go into remission, or become less active, or AML may return after treatment. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has recently approved several new drugs to treat AML when this happens. However, people with AML that comes back after a stem cell transplant face more challenges.
