Blood 124, 273276 (2014). AC220 is a uniquely potent and selective inhibitor of FLT3 for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). While the seven patients treated with the doublet had a CRc rate of 57% (n=4/7) and a median OS of 5.7 months, the fifteen R/R FLT3mut AML patients treated with the triplet had a CRc rate of 81% (n=11) with a projected 1-year OS of 60%. The AUC of the ROC curve of the ITD length for OS prediction was 0.504, and no differences were found when applying any of the thresholds for OS, RFS or CR rate. 381, 17281740 (2019). 17, 721749 (2019). Maiti et al. A phase 1 study of gilteritinib in combination with induction and consolidation chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed AML: final results. Mutations of FLT3 are found in approximately 30% of newly diagnosed AML patients and appear either as ITDs ( 25%) or point mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) (710%)4. Our median ITD length was 48bp (range=3bp to 231bp), similar to previous studies12,14,17. and P.M.; Project administration, J.M.A. We evaluate these patients on a case by case basis and may consider maintenance with 45 consolidation cycles of CLIA or FAI with FLT3i followed by FLT3i+/HMA maintenance for two years vs ASCT based on donor availability, age, performance status, MRD negativity, and patient preference. Interestingly, their prognostic effect had a strong dependence on age: FLT3 ITD indicated poor survival in younger patients (<60 years; P = .00003), but had no effect in older patients (60-74 years; P = .5), whereas NPM1 mut indicated better survival in older patients ( P = .00002), but not in younger patients ( P = .95).

Mechanism of constitutive activation of FLT3 with internal tandem duplication in the juxtamembrane domain. FLT3-ITD mutations are detected in approximately 25% of newly diagnosed adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and confer an adverse prognosis.

All eligible intermediate or high-risk patients (defined as patients with FLT3-ITDmut AR>0.50 irrespective of NPM1mut status, or FLT3-ITDmut AR<0.50 without NPM1mut) are equivocally recommended to proceed to ASCT in CR1 followed by post-ASCT FLT3i maintenance for at least 2 years (although we often continue indefinite FLT3i maintenance until long-term maintenance data becomes available). ISSN 2045-2322 (online). We currently recommend post-transplant maintenance with a FLT3i for at least 2 years (potentially indefinitely as there is limited data on the incidence of possible late relapses) in all FLT3mut AML. Nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1) mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) confer a survival advantage in the absence of FLT3-internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD).Here, we investigated the main predictors of outcome after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT).

Prognostic significance of baseline FLT3-ITD mutant allele level in acute myeloid leukemia treated with intensive chemotherapy with/without sorafenib. Adult patients with FLT3- ITD mutated AML treated at our institution were identified. As consolidation therapy, one hundred patients received high-intensity treatment (3+7, n=68; 3+7+gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO), n=4; 2+5=2; IDA-FLAG, n=1; high-dose cytarabine (HDARAC), n=23; low-dose cytarabine (LDARAC), n=1; and Ara-C 100mg/m25, n=1). Given the increasing importance that massive sequencing techniques are acquiring in the prognosis determination and therapeutic management of AML patients, we decided to study the possible correlation between the length or site of the insertion of the mutated ITD fragment and the mutational profile of these patients.

This is in line with the preclinical data49 and molecular profiling of pre- and post-treatment samples66 identifying FLT3-ITDmut as a putative mechanism of resistance to venetoclax based therapies67, suggesting that FLT3-ITDmut patients may need a FLT3i incorporated into the HMA with venetoclax therapy either in a triplet or sequential approach to improve OS.

We stop the venetoclax and the FLT3i after Day 14 in patients who achieve marrow remission (<5% blasts) and/or marrow aplasia/hypoplasia/insufficiency (<5% cellularity). The CRc rate was 67% (n=10/15) in the combination arm in the safety cohort prior to commencement of randomization45. Among 362 patients, NGS was performed in 118 patients using a panel of 39 genes.

FLT3 activating mutations ( FLT3mut) may involve either the juxta membrane domain [internal tandem duplication mutations ( FLT3 -ITD)] 4 or the tyrosine kinase domain ( FLT3 -TKD) 5, 6..

A comparable decrease in CRc rates (45%21%10%) and OS (7.94.04.1 months) was observed with sequential FLT3i-based therapies in the R/R AML setting73.

Second-generation FLT3is potently and specifically target FLT3 with fewer off-target effects. However, in a recently released planned interim analysis, the study did not meet its primary endpoint of overall survival and may be terminated for futility46. We used the 0.5 cutoff of the AR as recommended by the 2017 ELN guidelines8.These patients were divided on the basis of the FLT3-ITD AR into an FLT3-ITDLOWgroup (41%; n=58) and an FLT3-ITDHIGHgroup (59%; n=82). Patients treated with midostaurin had higher rates of anemia and skin rash compared to placebo and these were generally manageable with supportive care without necessitating dose reductions or interruptions in the majority of cases. Protein alteration seems to be much more complex than the length of the mutation or the site of insertion; therefore, our efforts to simplify FLT3-ITD characteristicsby stratifying the risk of the patients may be fruitless.

Internal tandem duplication (ITD) of the fms-related tyrosine kinase-3 gene ( FLT3) confer a poor prognosis in adult AML. These data suggests that although responses may still be achieved with gilteritinib in patients refractory to prior first-generation FLT3i-based therapies, optimization with doublet or triplet combinations with second-generation FLT3i is likely needed to significantly improve OS with prior TKI exposure.

The analysis of OS and RFS applying this value did not show significant results (data not shown). Two classes of activating FLT3 mutations occur in AML: (1) internal tandem duplication ( FLT3 -ITD) which occur in 20-25% of patients and (2) tyrosine kinase domain mutations ( FLT3 -TKD) which are seen in 5-10% of patients [48]. Fishers exact test was employed to correlate the ITD insertion site and mutational status. Eur.

Clinical outcomes in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia treated with gilteritinib who received prior midostaurin or sorafenib. Souki Cancer Research Fund and generous philanthropic contributions to the MD Anderson Moon Shots Program. Elderly patients with AML have a distinct genetic landscape compared with the younger population. We aimed to shed light on the prognostic importance of theFLT3-ITD length and site of insertion by validating previously suggested sites of insertion and thresholds of ITD length. Patients with NPM1-/FLT3- showed complex karyotype (24%) and t(8;21) (8%). Midostaurin is a type I FLT3i active against PDGFR, KIT, SRC, and other RTKs22,23. The FLT3-ITD patient had trisomy 8. The insertion site of FLT3-ITD was available in 106 of 118 patients (Fig. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the date of the diagnosis of AML until death in all included patients.
