FLT3 Y842C

We presented an exceedingly rare case of multifocal atypical GCT in an adult without any previously known genetic syndrome. A tumoral FLT3 Y842C point mutation not previously reported in GCT was discovered. Although the precise significance of this finding is uncertain, FLT3 Y842C has been cataloged as likely pathogenic in ClinVar. This report underscores the potential predictive utility of next-generation sequencing in the characterization and management of rare neoplasms.

We also show the efficacy of LT‑171-861 in a subcutaneous implantation model and a bone marrow engrafted model in vivo, where administration of LT-171-861 led to almost complete tumor regression and increased survival. Overall, this study not only identifies LT-171-861 as a potent FLT3 inhibitor, but also provides a rationale for the upcoming clinical trial of LT-171-861 in patients with AML and FLT3-ITD mutations.
