Early arrival: FDA approves BMS’ acute myeloid leukemia treatment

Sep. 1, 2020
By Lee Landenberger
Two days ahead of its Sept. 3 PDUFA date, Bristol Myers Squibb Co. received the FDA’s approval for Onureg, an oral form of azacitidine, for continuing treatment of adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The indication is specifically for patients achieving first complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete blood count recovery following intensive induction chemotherapy and who are not able to complete intensive curative therapy. BMS said Onureg is the first and only FDA-approved continued AML treatment for patients in complete remission.
