Gilteritinib decreased the risk of death by 36% compared with salvage chemotherapy, with a median OS of 9.3 months vs 5.6 months (P<0.001), and a superior CR+CRh rate (34% vs 15.3%). Biochem. Studies have reported that a higher mutant allelic burden is associated with a worse prognosis. The median OS was 2.4years (CI 05.5), 1.7years (CI: 04.4), 1.3years (CI 0.62.0), 1.5years (CI: 0.22.7), 0.9years (CI NC) and 2.3years (CI: 04.8), respectively. Genetic biomarkers of sensitivity and resistance to venetoclax monotherapy in patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia. PubMed Nevertheless, the short duration of remission with single-agent FLT3is in R/R FLT3mut AML in the absence of ASCT, limited options in patients refractory to gilteritinib therapy, and diverse primary and secondary mechanisms of resistance to different FLT3is remain ongoing challenges that compel the development and rapid implementation of multi-agent combinatorial or sequential therapies for FLT3mut AML. Hematol. Both mutations lead to the activation of downstream proliferation cascades [ 19, 20 ]. and JavaScript. Remember me on this computer. 13, 132 (2020). Article It is important to note that none of these patients received a FLT3 inhibitor (FLT3i) during induction, consolidation, or post-ASCT. Favorable relapse risk and OS were seen in NPM1mut with FLT3 wild-type; intermediate prognosis in FLT3-ITDmut with concurrent NPM1mut, and adverse prognosis in FLT3-ITDmut with NPM1 wild-type patients16. 61, 72337239 (2001). Soc. Elderly patients with AML have a distinct genetic landscape compared with the younger population. Molecular patterns of response and treatment failure after frontline venetoclax combinations in older patients with AML. FLT3 mutations are the most common mutations in AML 2 Of patients newly diagnosed with AML and tested for FLT3 mutations: 30 were positive for FLT3-ITD 7 were positive for FLT3-TKD FLT3-ITD mutations negatively impact survival in relapsed or refractory AML 1 Prognostic impact of low allelic ratio FLT3- ITD and NPM1 mutation in acute myeloid leukemia Prognostic impact of low allelic ratio FLT3- ITD and NPM1 mutation in acute myeloid leukemia Blood Adv. None of the studies has carried out an internal ITD length cutoff validation by dividing the patients into a training cohort and a validation cohort, which, given the arbitrary selection of the cutoffs used, would be necessary. CAS Perl, A. E. et al. S2) in PETHEMA centralized diagnostic laboratories as previously described33. Gilteritinib, a second-generation type I FLT3i demonstrated tolerability with CRc rates of 4555% in patients with R/R FLT3 (ITD or TKD)mut AML38,39. We aimed to assess the prognostic impact of these variables on the complete remission (CR) rates, overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) of AML patients withFLT3-ITDmutations. Efficacy and Safety of Venetoclax in Combination with Gilteritinib for Relapsed/refractory FLT3-mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia in the Expansion Cohort of a Phase 1b Study (ASH, 2020).

Google Scholar. Quizartinib demonstrated an OS of 6.2 months compared with 4.7 months with salvage chemotherapy (hazard ratio 0.76 and P=0.02). FLT3-ITD has been strongly associated with a bad prognosis, leukocytosis, high blast counts, increased risk of relapse and shorter overall survival. Ravandi, F. et al. 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. The approval of multi-kinase FLT3 inhibitor (FLT3i) midostaurin with induction therapy for newly diagnosed FLT3mut AML, and a more specific, potent FLT3i, gilteritinib as monotherapy for relapsed/refractory (R/R) FLT3mut AML have improved outcomes in patients with FLT3mut AML.

Mol. We observed a low frequency of NPM1 mutation (10.1%), which correlated with the good prognosis of this mutation. J. Med. FLT3 mutations occur in more than 30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are associated with short relapse-free and overall survival, including internal tandem duplication (ITD) and point mutations within the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) [1, 2].To date, multiple FLT3 kinase inhibitors have been developed and some are approved for clinical use including sorafenib, Quizartinib . Previously published cutoffs of ITD length, reported in more than one publication(i.e., 39bp and 70bp), were tested to check their applicability in our cohort. https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2017/207997s000lbl.pdf2017 (2017). Due to this, the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) blocking FLT3-ITD became a rational therapeutic concept. In patients 55 years, this regimen appeared to overcome the negative impact of FLT3-ITDmut in NPM1 co-mutated patients, regardless of the FLT3 AR, with comparable 3-year OS rates of 64% and 68% in FLT3-ITDmut NPM1mut and FLT3-ITDWT NPM1mut patients, respectively (P>0.05). Moreover, we performed an analysis of the correlation of FLT3-ITD length and insertion sites with the mutational landscape of AML, which has not been carried out thus far. Oran et al. 5, 6 The FLT3 gene is a member of the class III receptor tyrosine kinase family, including c-kit, c-fms, and the platelet-derived growth factor receptors. FLT3 plays a role in cell survival, proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Upregulation of Bcl-2 confers resistance to FLT3 inhibition in FLT3-ITD AML with secondary acquired mutations. Posterior reversible encephalopathy and pancreatitis are rare (<12%) but important side effects to be aware of. recently presented the first triplet combination of venetoclax, FLT3i (mainly gilteritinib or sorafenib), and decitabine from the FLT3mut subset of the prospective decitabine 10 days with venetoclax study (NCT03404193)54. Oncol. The prognostic value of a FLT3 mutation in the tyrosine kinase domain (FLT3-TKD), which has a lower incidence in AML (approximately 7-10% of all cases), is uncertain. 109 3981 3992, DL Stirewalt 2006 Size of FLT3 internal tandem duplication has prognostic significance in patients with acute myeloid leukemia Blood 107 3724 3726, S Meshinchi 2008 Structural and numerical variation of FLT3/ITD in pediatric AML Blood 111 4930 4933, R Kusec 2006 More on prognostic significance of FLT3/ITD size in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) Blood 108 405 406, RE Gale 2008 The impact of FLT3 internal tandem duplication mutant level, number, size, and interaction with NPM1 mutations in a large cohort of young adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia Blood 111 2776 2784, Y Kim 2015 Quantitative fragment analysis of FLT3-ITD efficiently identifying poor prognostic group with high mutant allele burden or long ITD length Blood Cancer J.

Recently, a double-blind placebo-controlled study reported a trend toward improved OS but not EFS with sorafenib combined with intensive chemotherapy in the frontline setting, especially among those with high FLT3-ITDmut AR >0.730. In general, quizartinib is well tolerated with minimal skin, gastrointestinal, or pulmonary side effects. Absence of FLT3-ITD mutation 0.07 . Intensive chemotherapy regimens were administered to 161 patients (idarubicin+cytarabine; 3+7, n=151 and 2+5, n=8; IDA-FLAG (fludarabine+Ara-C+idarubicin), n=1 and FLAG, n=1). Res. Regrettably, patients with information on the IS of ITD available had received different treatments: intensive chemotherapy, n=37; non-intensive therapy, n=14; clinical trials, n=6; and best supportive care, n=2. PubMed Central Our study has several limitations: (1) Our patients were selected from an observational registry, which can be interpreted as a limitation given the heterogeneity of treatments or as a strength because our data are thereby more similar to those observed in real-life clinical practice than those derived from a clinical trial26,27. PubMed Naval Daver. The origin and evolution of mutations in acute myeloid leukemia. Similarly, the median ITD length in three patients with EZH2mutations was 26bp vs 48bp in the wild-type group (n=65) (P=0.031). The AR was determined by fragment length analysis and calculated as previously described32. Souki Cancer Research Fund and generous philanthropic contributions to the MD Anderson Moon Shots Program. Our median ITD length was 48bp (range=3bp to 231bp), similar to previous studies12,14,17. The combination continues to enroll. Swaminathan et al. 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.. The analysis of OS and RFS applying this value did not show significant results (data not shown). Blood 124, 273276 (2014). Only four out of 106 patients had ITD IS in the TKD1 domain. Haematologica 106, 1034 (2020). These observations have made FLT3 an attractive drug target.

Based on the strong preclinical synergy and synthetic lethality with venetoclax and FLT3i combination49,50,51, and the fact that BCL2 upregulation may confer resistance to FLT3 inhibition52, evaluation of several doublet and triplet combinations of venetoclax and FLT3i are ongoing. Because the comutation of DNMT3A (DNMT3A(mut)) has been suggested to negatively influence prognosis in AMLNPM1, we analyzed the impact of DNMT3A(mut) in FLT3-ITD subsets (absent, low, and high ratios).

The clinical behavior and genetic characteristics of the disease are heterogeneous1. Blood 100, 43724380 (2002). The addition of sorafenib to standard AML treatment results in a substantial reduction in relapse risk and improved survival. We currently recommend the incorporation of FLT3is and ASCT in CR1 in all ASCT eligible patients with a FLT3-ITDmut AML, irrespective of the AR and/or NPM1 co-mutation status. FLT3-ITD is a constitutively activated variant of the FLT3 tyrosine kinase receptor. In 40 patients (87%), the prognosis based on the ELN 2017 risk stratification algorithm did not change due to AR, whereas, in 6 patients (13%), the FLT3-ITD mutation burden was <0.5 in DNA and 0.5 in cDNA, which changed their risk stratification. (4) Only five patients in our cohort received treatment with midostaurin (2 in induction and 3 in consolidation treatment); therefore, we were not able to draw conclusions regarding the prognostic impact of the length of the ITD as described in previous studies29,30. Addition of venetoclax to this backbone may be associated with prolonged and potentially prohibitive myelosuppression; we have not routinely added and do not at this time recommend adding venetoclax to the backbone of CLIA/FIA with FLT3i63. We continue the venetoclax and FLT3i until Day 21 if the Day 14 bone marrow shows >5% blasts with >/=5% cellularity. CAS Fishers exact test was employed to correlate the ITD insertion site and mutational status. PubMed Central 18, 10611075 (2017). The first-generation FLT3is lack specificity for FLT3 and inhibit multiple downstream RTKs that may result in more off-target toxicities. N. Engl. Intriguingly, this was the first large study to show that the FLT3i may also benefit FLT3 wild-type patients, perhaps through multi-kinase blockade or prevention of emergent FLT3 clones at relapse28.

G Nagel 2017 Epidemiological, genetic, and clinical characterization by age of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia based on an academic population-based registry study (AMLSG BiO) Ann. 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. Am. AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations show an increased relapse rate, reduced disease-free survival (DFS), and decreased long-term survival, while the rate of complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy is not significantly affected6,7. J. Med. A total of 164 patients diagnosed with AML-NPM1 included in 2 consecutive CETLAM protocols and with DNMT3A and FLT3 status available were studied. In subsequent cycles: FLT3i is continued for the entire duration of the cycle and the venetoclax duration is reduced to 14 days or lower to mitigate cumulative prolonged cytopenias. Alotaibi, A.

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). DiNardo, C. D. et al. An analysis of OS censoring at the time of allo-HSCT did not yield significant results (data not shown). However, previous studies have shown that FLT3/ITD mutation was not an independent adverse prognostic factor in DEK/CAN-positive AML patients. Low relapse rate in younger patients 60 years old with newly diagnosed FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with crenolanib and cytarabine/anthracycline chemotherapy. Oncol. Among 729 AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations included in the PETHEMA AML epidemiologic registry between 2003 and 2019, FLT3-ITD length was available in 362: 188 males and 174 females; median age of 60.8years (range 17.191.4years). 15 926 957, H Dhner DJ Weisdorf CD Bloomfield 2015 Acute myeloid leukemia N. Engl. Yamatani, K. et al. While both FLT3-ITD and FLT3-TKD mutations are common in AML with a normal karyotype, these mutations are also identified in AML with various karyotypic abnormalities. The sorafenib treatment arm had increased rates of adverse events, particularly diarrhea, bleeding, cardiac events, hand-foot-skin reaction, and rash but with no significant increase in the 30- or 60-day mortality between the two treatment arms.

Among those with NPM1 wild-type, all FLT3-ITDmut patients had an increased risk of relapse and inferior OS, regardless of the AR17. 5 e336, S-B Liu 2019 Impact of FLT3-ITD length on prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia Haematologica 104 e9 e12, X Jiang 2018 Influence of FLT3-ITD mutation and length on the treatment response and prognosis in cytogenetically normal AML patients Blood 132 5245 5245, C Allen 2013 The importance of relative mutant level for evaluating impact on outcome of KIT, FLT3 and CBL mutations in core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia Leukemia 27 1891 1901, X Quan J Deng 2020 Core binding factor acute myeloid leukemia: Advances in the heterogeneity of KIT, FLT3, and RAS mutations (Review) Mol. Nevertheless, there are numerous and contradictory manuscripts regarding the prognostic importance of the length and insertion site of the ITD fragment. Additionally, the area under the ROC curve, which serves as an indicator of the diagnostic capacity of the ITD length as a whole, was 0.504. In the randomized phase III RATIFY trial of midostaurin combined with cytarabine and daunorubicin (3+7) induction and consolidation, midostaurin improved OS compared to placebo in patients <60years of age with newly diagnosed FLT3 (ITD and/or TKD) AML24, regardless of AR (0.7 or 0.7) or the type of mutation (ITD or TKD). 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. Second-generation FLT3is potently and specifically target FLT3 with fewer off-target effects. 368, 20592074 (2013). FLT3 -ITD has a poor prognostic impact in patients with AML at diagnosis. 19, 889903 (2018). Our results, alongside those of other non-significant reports, lead us to believe that FLT3-ITD length has neither prognostic value nor possible clinical application. SORAML, a randomized placebo-controlled trial evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of 3+7 induction-consolidation with or without sorafenib in patients 60 years with newly diagnosed AML, irrespective of a FLT3mut (only 34% had FLT3mut). FLT3 -ITD and FLT3 point mutations show a gain-of-function phenotype with distinct signalling properties in vitro. Libura, M. et al.

PubMed Internal tandem duplication (ITD) of the fms-related tyrosine kinase-3 gene ( FLT3) confer a poor prognosis in adult AML. Br. Although poor prognosis in AML is only associated with FLT3-ITD, all activating FLT3 mutations can contribute to leukemogenesis and are thus potential targets for therapeutic interventions. FLT3-TKD activating mutations also constitutively activate FLT311; however, they have not been associated with a consistent prognostic impact12.

Variant allele frequency (VAF) is the ratio of ITD-mutated alleles to ITD-mutated+wild-type alleles (FLT3ITD/FLT3ITD+FLT3 wild-type)14. The authors declare no competing interests. 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. Therefore, only 3.8% of the patients showed an FLT3-ITD insertion in the TKD1 domain. J. Hematol. 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. It is important to acknowledge the diverse mechanisms of FLT3i resistance after different FLT3is, and it is essential to proactively evaluate for these mechanisms at the time of FLT3i failure to optimize subsequent therapy. 5).The study protocol was conducted following the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki and approved by the Ethics Committee for Clinical Research of the Hospital UniversitarioFundacin Jimnez Daz (PIC169-18_FJD).
