The prognosis is poor for patients who have relapsed‐refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Most published reports analyzed results from therapies in first‐salvage AML or in studies that were conducted before 2000. Several novel agents and strategies are being tested for potential approval as treatment for patients with relapsed‐refractory AML in second salvage.
