Discovery of IRAK1/4/pan-FLT3 Kinase Inhibitors as Treatments for Acute Myeloid Leukemia. (PubMed, ACS Med Chem Lett)
Optimization of this series has produced compound 31 which displays potent and selective inhibition of IRAK1, IRAK4, FLT3, and all mutant forms of FLT3, as well as good in vitro ADME and pharmacokinetic properties. In a mouse xenograft model of AML, 31 produces survival prolongation equal to that of Gilteritinib, the leading marketed FLT3 inhibitor currently used to treat AML.

Menin inhibitors for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia: challenges and opportunities ahead. (PubMed, J Hematol Oncol)
More importantly, approval of the combination of the BCl-2 inhibitor, venetoclax, and hypomethylating agents or low dose cytarabine provided unprecedented breakthrough for the frontline treatment of older, unfit AML patients. Recent development of menin inhibitors targeting AML with KMT2A rearrangements or NPM1 mutations could represent a promising new horizon of treatment for patients within these subsets of AML. Our current review will focus on a summary and updates of recent developments of menin inhibitors in the treatment of AML, on the challenges ahead arising from drug resistance, as well as on the opportunities of novel combinations with menin inhibitors.

TIPIC syndrome in a patient following sorafenib treatment for acute myeloid leukemia: a rare case report. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Treatment involved a one-week course of oral steroid therapy with dexamethasone and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which led to complete clinical recovery. TIPIC syndrome involves transient nonspecific perivascular inflammation of the carotid adventitia; however, the precise underlying cause remains unclear. In this study, we report a rare case and explore the potential pathophysiological mechanisms through a review of the existing literature.

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.

Molecular measurable residual disease monitoring and transplant indications in NPM1 mutated acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Bone Marrow Transplant)
In this review, we evaluate the prognostic role of MRD monitoring in NPM1 mutated AML and its use as a predictive biomarker to refine risk stratification and inform decision making regarding treatment. We explore the impact of pre-HCT MRD positivity on post-HCT outcomes in this AML subset, and how HCT-related factors such as conditioning intensity may influence this risk.

Co-administration with rifampin reduced the AUC of SKLB1028 by ~30%, while the Cmax did not change significantly. All treatments were well tolerated in all three studies.

Development and Performance of SNAQ-SEQ Spike-in Standards in AML NGS Diagnostic and MRD Testing (AMP 2024)
We have demonstrated that the addition of SNAQ-SEQ IS spike-in standards produced expected VAF in response to dilution, and for AML samples, provided a direct per sample 0.3% VAF sensitivity QC. The IS variants replace the need for an external positive reference run control sample, enabling an additional patient sample to be run to increase testing throughput, flow cell utilization, and reduced testing cost. Second, the ability to compare the known versus measured IS VAF conveys the reporting accuracy of the test on a per-sample basis.

For patients with IDH1 mutated AML co-mutated with NPM1 and/or FLT3-ITD, only detection of persistent mutated NPM1 and/or FLT3-ITD was associated with significantly higher rates of relapse (p = 0.01). These data, from the largest study to date, do not support the detection of IDH1 mutation in CR1 blood prior to alloHCT as evidence of AML MRD for increased post-transplant relapse risk.

Measurable Residual Mutated NPM1 before Allogeneic Transplant for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (ASH 2024)
NPM1 MRD positive patients receiving nonmyeloablative conditioning or reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) without melphalan (mel) had increased risk of relapse or death compared to patients receiving myeloablative conditioning or RIC with mel, regardless of FLT3-ITD co-mutational status (3yrs: relapse 87% vs 55%, P=0.006; OS 15% vs 42%, P=0.013). In patients with NPM1 mutated AML from the Pre-MEASURE study, we show that detection of residual NPM1 variants in pre-transplant blood during CR1 using a highly sensitive DNA-based assay is associated in a dose-dependent manner with a significantly increased risk of relapse and death after allo-HCT, which can be mitigated in part by conditioning regimen. In patients co-mutated for both FLT3-ITD and NPM1 at diagnosis, NPM1 should be prioritized as a target for NGS-MRD if only one test is available.

Prognostic Significance of Low Copy Number FLT3 and NPM1 mrd As Detected By Ultra-Sensitive Next Generation Sequencing (ASH 2024)

Findings from our retrospective study were consistent with previously published data suggesting the presence of “high level” MRD (i.e. above the current clinically-validated limit of detection) is associated with increased risk of AML relapse in both NPM1 and FLT3-ITD mutated AML.

T/NK Cell-Associated Transcriptomic Profile Informs Response to FLT3 Inhibitors in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (ASH 2024)

This study provides evidence that FLT3 mutational status is associated with a unique T-cell activation profile and AML maturation state, and that T/NK cell-associated genes correlate with response to FLT3i. Our RNA metric of FLT3 mutational status could be utilized to refine patient stratification in future clinical trials. S.R.

The rare NPM1 mutation subtypes share a similar pattern of co-mutations with the common NPM1 type A, are similarly affected by the FLT3 status and by the presence of a TM-phenotype and feature similar OS. Publicly available datasets can be exploited to collect information on rare entities which would be otherwise poorly characterized.

Pre-emptive therapeutic decisions based on measurable residual disease status in acute myeloid leukemia: ready for prime time? (PubMed, Leukemia)
Therefore, preemptive interventions on the natural history of MRD positivity are an active area of research beyond its initial prognostic function. Targeting MRD in AML with innovative treatment strategies can improve patient outcomes.

PRDM16 Induces Methylation of FLT3 to Promote FLT3-ITD Signaling and Leukemia Progression. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
Altogether, these results suggest that PRDM16 boosts oncogenic FLT3 signaling in leukemic cells by prompting FLT3-ITD methylation. Therefore, PRDM16 may serve as a therapeutic target for AML.
