FLT3 Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Key Concepts and …
Abstract. The FLT3 receptor is overexpressed on the majority of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts. Mutations in FLT3 are the most common genetic alteration in AML, identified in approximately one third of newly diagnosed patients.FLT3 internal tandem duplication mutations (FLT3-ITD) are associated with increased relapse and inferior overall survival.

FLT3 Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Unraveling the …
Mutation type: Definition and prevalence: ITD: FLT3-ITD mutations occur in the juxtamembrane domain and result in the insertion of tandem duplications of variable lengths.They are the most common FLT3 mutation in AML, accounting for approximately 25%-30% of cases.: Point mutations (TKD mutations) FLT3-TKD mutations involve substitutions within the TKD of FLT3.
Targeting FLT3 mutations in AML: review of current knowledge …
Mutations of the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) gene occur in approximately 30% of all AML cases, with the internal tandem duplication (ITD) representing the most common type of FLT3 mutation (FLT3-ITD; approximately 25% of all AML cases).

FLT3 mutated acute myeloid leukemia: 2021 treatment algorithm
2021年5月27日 · Approximately 30% of patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) harbor mutations in the fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) gene. While the adverse prognostic impact of FLT3-ITDmut ...
Therapeutic Targeting of FLT3 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: …
Abstract. FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is mutated in approximately 30% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. The presence of FLT3-ITD (internal tandem duplication, 20–25%) mutation and, to a lesser extent, FLT3-TKD (tyrosine kinase domain, 5–10%) mutation is associated with poorer diagnosis and therapy response since the leukemic cells become hyperproliferative and resistant to ...
