Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive malignancy with only a handful of therapeutic options. About 30% of AML patients harbor mutated FLT3 kinase, and thus, this cancer-driver has become a hotly pursued AML target. Herein we report a new class of FLT3 inhibitors, which potently inhibit the proliferation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells at nanomolar concentrations.
急性髓系白血病(AML)是一种侵袭性恶性肿瘤,治疗选择有限。约30%的AML患者携带FLT3激酶突变,因此,这种癌症驱动因子已成为热门的AML治疗靶点。在此,我们报告了一类新型的FLT3抑制剂,它们在纳摩尔浓度下就能有效抑制急性髓系白血病(AML)细胞的增殖。
