HMA maintenance therapy is expected to benefit overall survival (OS) and relapse free survival (RFS) in AML patients with favorable risk.
Applying hypomethylating agents, azacitidine or decitabine as maintenance therapy in favorable-risk AML may prolong the remission duration and further improve their long-term survival.

Relapse free survival (RFS)
It is measured from the date of entry into this trial to the date of hematologic relapse or death from any cause; subjects not known to have any of these events are censored on the date they were last examined.
Time frame: 5 year
Overall survival (OS)
It is measured from the date of entry into this trial to the date of death from any cause; subjects not known to have died at last follow-up are censored on the date they were last known to be alive.
Time frame: 5 year
Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR)
CIR defined as from the time of recruitment to the study until the date of hematologic relapse.
Time frame: 5 year
