[Metabolism and therapy in acute myeloid leukemia with isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 mutations].

Isocitrate dehydrogenase IDH1 and IDH2, key enzymes in central and energy metabolism, are frequently mutated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). They catalyze the production of the oncometabolite R-2-hydroxyglurate, which plays a key role in leukemogenesis and relapse of patients after standard AML treatments. Although the recent introduction of selective inhibitors of IDH1 (ivosidenib) and IDH2 (enasidenib) has improved the prognosis of patients with IDH1- and IDH2-mutant AML, several mechanisms of resistance to these treatments have already been identified, including metabolic reprogramming. The study of these mechanisms has opened up new therapeutic opportunities for the monitoring and treatment of patients with this subtype of AML.
