Older acute myeloid leukemia patients usually experience a bleak outcome, especially those in the unfit group. For this unfit category, intensive chemotherapy and allogeneic stem cell transplantation are usually accompanied by higher early mortality, which results from higher risk genetic profiles and worse psychological and physiological conditions. The significant improvement in genetic technology recently has driven the appearance of several mutation-targeted therapies, such as FLT3, Bcl-2, IDH and Hedgehog pathway inhibitors and an anti-CD33 antibody-drug conjugate, which have changed enormously the therapeutic landscape of acute myeloid leukemia. This review describes the treatment dilemma of the unfit group and discusses the objective clinical data of each targeted drug and mechanisms of resistance, with a focus on combination strategies with fewer toxicities and abrogation of drug resistance.
