A new class of FLT3 inhibitors has been identified based on the 3-phenyl-1H-5-pyrazolylamine scaffold. The structure-activity relationships led to the discovery of two carbamate series, and some potent compounds within these two series exhibited better growth inhibition of FLT3-mutated MOLM-13 cells than FLT3 inhibitors sorafenib (2) and ABT-869 (3). In particular, compound 8d exhibited the ability to regress tumors in mouse xenograft model using MOLM-13 cells.

Intrachromosomal amplification of chromosome 21 (iAMP21) B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) in children is a high-risk subtype for which targeted drugs are lacking. In this study, we determined the frequency of secondary lesions in 28 iAMP21 BCP-ALL patient samples and investigated cellular sensitivity for candidate-targeted drugs. iAMP21 was enriched in aberrations (10.

The crosstalk between cancers and the immune microenvironment plays a critical role in malignant progression. FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is a frequently mutated gene in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, its role in solid cancers remains poorly understood.

The protein deacetylase HDAC6 has been controversially linked to cancer cell proliferation and viral propagation. We analyzed whether a pharmacological depletion of HDAC6 with a recent proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) kills tumor cells. We show that low micromolar doses of the cereblon-based PROTAC TH170, but not its inactive analog TH170E, induce proteasomal degradation of HDAC6.

Current treatments for acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) cure fewer than 30 % of patients. This low efficacy is due, in part, to the inter-patient and intra-patient heterogeneity of AMLs; accordingly, all current AML treatment regimens involve drug combinations (polypharmacy). A recently-completed clinical trial in relapsed/refractory AML using a combination of two newer targeted antileukemics, the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax (VEN) plus the FLT3 inhibitor gilteritinib (GIL), yielded highly promising results for this two-drug polypharmacy combination.

Gilteritinib treats acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with the FMS-like receptor tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation. Dysregulation of histone modification affects the genesis and progression of AML. Strategies targeting key histone regulators have not been applied to the treatment of AML.
