The AML Hub, run by Scientific Education Support (SES) in partnership with the European LeukemiaNet (ELN), has continued to promote significant developments in the treatment and research of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) throughout Quarter 3 of 2021. The AML Hub provides up-to-date, unbiased material for healthcare professionals within the AML community, worldwide.

Speaking about the impact the hub has had this year, Mia Hill, IME Director at Scientific Education Support, said:

"The AML Hub virtually attended two key congresses in Q3: the 9th Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) and the 4th Annual Meeting of the International Academy for Clinical Hematology (IACH). We provided live social media updates from these congresses, summarizing key talks relating to the latest therapeutic approaches and diagnosis of AML. Our coverage generated over 64,000 impressions on our social channels, which resulted in over 900 website users for the hub. Additionally, we will produce articles on key research presented at the 3rd NCRI AML academy, which took place in September."

The AML Hub owes thanks to its supporters-Roche Genentech, AbbVie, Amgen, Novartis, Bristol Myers Squibb, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Gamida Cell, and Takeda -without whom the work would not be possible. In Quarter 3, the AML Hub was delighted to welcome Pfizer as a supporter and would like to extend a special thanks for their support going forward.

About acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

AML is a form of blood cancer originating in the bone marrow and is caused by an uncontrolled expansion of immature stem cells of myeloid lineage. It is the most common acute leukemia in adults and increases in incidence with age.

Understanding the molecular changes associated with the progression of AML has led to risk stratification and promising new targeted therapies. However, the only potentially curative option is allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which has become more readily available and safer owing to reduced-intensity conditioning regimens.

About the AML Hub

The AML Hub is an open-access online resource dedicated to providing balanced, credible, and up-to-date medical education in AML. Our aim is to enhance knowledge of AML through the multichannel dissemination of global advances related to its classification, diagnosis, treatment, and management.

The AML Hub enables time-stretched HCPs to easily access impactful information that expedites learning and empowers their treatment decisions. Informed by patients, curated by world leaders, and endorsed by expert societies, the AML Hub supports HCPs worldwide.

The AML Hub shares new data, evidence-based articles, therapy approvals, expert opinions, and international congress coverage to treatment teams and researchers around the world.
