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 FLT3 gene frequently undergoes mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), with internal tandem duplications (ITD) and tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) point mutations (PMs) being most common. Recently, PMs and deletions in the FLT3 juxtamembrane domain (JMD) have been identified, but their biological and clinical significance remains poorly understood. We analyzed 1660 patients with de novo AML and found FLT3-JMD mutations, mostly PMs, in 2% of the patients.

FLT3 mutations are among the most common genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are associated with poor prognosis. Significant advancements have been made in developing FLT3 inhibitors (FLT3Is), such as quizartinib, which have improved treatment outcomes in both newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory AML. Resistance to FLT3Is remains a major clinical challenge, driven by diverse mechanisms including FLT3 point mutations, cellular escape pathways, and the influence of the bone marrow microenvironment.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a heterogeneous hematologic malignancy, has generally a poor prognosis despite the recent advancements in diagnostics and treatment. Genetic instability, particularly mutations in the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) gene, is associated with severe outcomes. Approximately 30 % of AML patients harbor FLT3 mutations, which have been linked to higher relapse and reduced survival rates.
