“In previous research, we showed that patients treated with quizartinib had improved survival compared with patients who didn’t receive the drug. This study further demonstrated that patients treated with quizartinib had better quality of life over time and that the side effects from the drug did not negatively affect the improved quality of life,” said Dr. Mikkael A. Sekeres, a Sylvester researcher, chief of the Division of Hematology, and senior author of the abstract presented at ASH.
