Quizartinib: a potent and selective FLT3 inhibitor for the treatment of patients with FLT3-ITD-positive AML. (PubMed, J Hematol Oncol)
Finally, we highlight some of the ongoing studies that test quizartinib in patients with FLT3-ITD-positive AML, patients with FLT3-ITD-negative AML, in both the first-line and R/R settings, in patients fit or unfit for intensive chemotherapy, including studies for quizartinib-based combination with other compounds such as decitabine and venetoclax. Future research should aim to further optimize the clinical value of quizartinib and explore its use in additional clinical settings, which could be achieved by testing quizartinib with other drugs, better characterization of the mechanisms of resistance, identification of the role of quizartinib as a maintenance therapy after allo-HCT, and investigating quizartinib in patients with FLT3-ITD-negative AML.

Decitabine Enhances Sorafenib Sensitivity in Renal Cell Carcinoma by Promoting BIN1 and SYNE1 Expressions. (PubMed, Front Biosci (Landmark Ed))
SYNE1 contributes to the modulation of sorafenib resistance in ccRCC cells through interacting with BIN1. Decitabine treatment enhances expressions of these two proteins to improve TKI response, suggesting a potential strategy for counteracting resistance and bettering patient outcomes.

Injectable Autocatalytic Hydrogel Triggers Pyroptosis to Stimulate Anticancer Immune Response for Preventing Postoperative Tumor Recurrence. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Herein, an injectable hydrogel-encapsulated autocatalytic copper peroxide (CP@Gel) therapeutic platform is designed and combine it with the clinical-grade DNA methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine (DAC) to effectively inhibit TNBC growth and postoperative recurrence via pyroptosis, killing residual cancer cells that bypass apoptosis resistance while also improving immunogenicity and modulating immunosuppression to achieve an intense anti-tumor immune response...The in vivo results show a 67% elimination of local tumor recurrence via treatment with DAC+CP@Gel, suggesting the successful integration of sustained drug release with autocatalysis and epigenetic modification. The results thus suggest great potential for pyroptosis-based and injectable hydrogel-aided strategies for preventing the postoperative recurrence of TNBC.

CLAG±DAC regimen in the treatment of refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (PubMed, Zhonghua Xue Ye Xue Za Zhi)
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of CLAG±DAC (Clofarabine, Cytarabine, G-CSF±Decitabine) chemotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) . The remission rate was relatively higher in patients with R/R AML combined with FLT3-ITD mutation by applying the DAC+CLAG regimen (OR=10.84, 95%CI 1.48-288.50, P=0.04) . The CLAG±DAC regimen is considered effective in patients with R/R AML, whereas decitabine combined with the CLAG regimen is more suitable for patients with R/R AML combined with FLT3-ITD mutation.

Triggering Pyroptosis by Doxorubicin-Loaded Multifunctional Nanoparticles in Combination with Decitabine for Breast Cancer Chemoimmunotherapy. (PubMed, ACS Appl Mater Interfaces)
Furthermore, DAC + DOX@FPSD NP treatment could promote pyroptosis-associated antitumor immunity, as evidenced by the increased presence of CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ T cells, heightened secretion of tumor necrosis factor-α and interferon-γ, elevated high-mobility group box-1 levels, and enhanced calreticulin exposure. The FPSD nanocarrier developed in this study had favorable stability, active targeting ability, biocompatibility, and controlled release properties, and the DAC + DOX@FPSD NPs represented an approach to antitumor therapy by inducing pyroptosis, which offers a promising avenue for breast cancer treatment.

Impact of TP53 Mutation Status in Elderly AML Patients When Adding All-Trans Retinoic Acid or Valproic Acid to Decitabine. (PubMed, Eur J Haematol)
In a randomized phase II trial (AMLSG 14-09, NCT00867672) of elderly, newly diagnosed AML patients, ATRA combined with decitabine (DEC) significantly improved the overall response rate (ORR) and survival also in patients with adverse-risk genetics, without adding toxicity. Further studies of ATRA combined with hypomethylating agents appear warranted in non-M3 AML patients ineligible for HMA/venetoclax therapy. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00867672.

Midostaurin added to 10-day decitabine, for patients unfit for intensive chemotherapy with AML and higher risk MDS, irrespective of FLT3 mutational status, does not improve outcome. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
In the decitabine plus midostaurin arm 24% reached CR/CRi, the median OS was 4.8 months and 1-yrs OS was 31% which compared with 34% CR/CRi, median OS of 7.4 months and 1-yrs OS of 37% for the decitabine alone group (NS). Thus, while the addition of midostaurin appears safe, it does not enhance therapeutic efficacy of decitabine in unfit AML patients.

Decitabine, venetoclax, and ponatinib for advanced phase chronic myeloid leukaemia and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute myeloid leukaemia: a single-arm, single-centre phase 2 trial. (PubMed, Lancet Haematol)
The combination of decitabine, venetoclax, and ponatinib is safe and shows promising activity in patients with advanced phase chronic myeloid leukaemia, including those with multiple previous therapies or high-risk disease features. Further studies evaluating chemotherapy and venetoclax-based combination strategies using newer-generation BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors are warranted.

Successfully treatment of PLZF-RARα positive acute promyelocytic leukemia by Venetoclax combining with decitabine: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Hematology)
The patient did not respond to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), idarubicin, and arsenic trioxide (As2O3) combined induction chemotherapy. Then, the patient was treated with Venetoclax combining with decitabine as the salvage therapy and achieved morphological remission and PLZF/RARα gene negative. Venetoclax combining with decitabine can be used as an effective therapy in the PLZF-RARα positive APL.

Synergistic Cytotoxicity of Histone Deacetylase and Poly-ADP Ribose Polymerase Inhibitors and Decitabine in Breast and Ovarian Cancer Cells: Implications for Novel Therapeutic Combinations. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
We explored the synergistic cytotoxicity of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis), and decitabine in breast (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) and ovarian (HEY-T30 and SKOV-3) cancer cell lines that were exposed to HDACi (panobinostat or vorinostat), PARPi (talazoparib or olaparib), decitabine, or their combinations. These results indicate that HDACi, PARPi, and decitabine combinations should be further explored in these tumor types. Further clinical validation is warranted to assess their safety and efficacy.

Further HMA + ATRA studies appear warranted in AML/MDS patients of different genetic risk groups ineligible for more intensive treatment.Trial registration: This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00867672.

Maintenance Therapy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia. (PubMed, Am J Clin Oncol)
Hypomethylating agents like azacitidine and decitabine have shown promise in improving relapse-free and overall survival, particularly in older patients with AML ineligible for transplantation. Combination regimens involving azacitidine and venetoclax have demonstrated encouraging outcomes post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Targeted therapies, particularly FLT3 inhibitors like midostaurin and quizartinib, have shown significant benefits in improving survival outcomes, especially in FLT3-mutated AML cases. Gilteritinib and sorafenib also exhibit the potential to reduce relapse rates post-transplant. Isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibitors, including ivosidenib and enasidenib, present novel options for postchemotherapy and posttransplantation maintenance...The approval of oral azacitidine represents a significant advancement, emphasizing the need for further investigation into personalized maintenance approaches. In conclusion, the evolving landscape of maintenance therapy and integrating targeted therapies in AML offers promising avenues for improving patient outcomes.
