However, the effect of different characteristics on outcomes after transplant is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of patient, disease, and transplant characteristics on clinical outcomes and trends in maintenance therapy for patients with FLT3-ITDmut+ AML who underwent their first alloHCT.
