: Early post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) relapse in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has an almost invariably dismal prognosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that FLT3 inhibition enhances the graft-versus-leukemia effect in vitro and in vivo. Thus, FLT-3 inhibitors may be viable treatment options in this setting. Here, we report three patients with FLT3 and NPM1 mutated AML who relapsed early after allo-HSCT and were treated with gilteritinib (associated with donor lymphocyte Infusion in two patients) to achieve long-term remission without a second transplantation.

Abstract

: Early post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) relapse in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has an almost invariably dismal prognosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that FLT3 inhibition enhances the graft-versus-leukemia effect in vitro and in vivo. Thus, FLT-3 inhibitors may be viable treatment options in this setting. Here, we report three patients with FLT3 and NPM1 mutated AML who relapsed early after allo-HSCT and were treated with gilteritinib (associated with donor lymphocyte Infusion in two patients) to achieve long-term remission without a second transplantation.
