“I am highly encouraged by the initial data from the randomized portion of SELECT-AML-1,” said Thomas Cluzeau, MD, PhD, Head of Hematology at Nice University Hospital, Côte d’Azur University in France. “Despite the recent advances in treatment for unfit AML patients, there remains a substantial need for options that offer higher response rates and improved overall survival, particularly for the one-third of patients who do not respond to existing standard-of-care. I believe tamibarotene may offer a significant therapeutic advance for the treatment of AML and I am eager to continue enrolling patients in the ongoing SELECT-AML-1 trial.”
