Among the various genetic alterations, FLT3 internal tendem duplication (FLT3-ITD) mutations are present in approximately 20-30% of patients and are linked to rapid disease progression and frequent relapses. This review evaluates the role of quizartinib, a second-generation, highly selective FLT3 inhibitor, as a targeted therapeutic option for relapsed or refractory AML. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that quizartinib offers potent inhibition of FLT3 signaling, favorable pharmacokinetic properties, and high bioavailability. Early-phase clinical trials reported promising remission rates in patients harboring FLT3-ITD mutations, while phase III studies further substantiated its efficacy by showing improved overall survival when used alone or alongside standard chemotherapy. Despite these advances, quizartinib\u2019s clinical use is limited by challenges such as acquired resistance, off-target effects\u2014including QT interval prolongation\u2014and complex drug-drug interactions. Ongoing research is focused on elucidating resistance mechanisms and developing effective combination regimens to optimize its therapeutic potential. Overall, quizartinib represents a significant breakthrough in precision medicine for AML, offering a promising avenue to improve patient outcomes in this challenging disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.62958\/j.cjap.2025.007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,19]],"date-time":"2025-06-19T02:10:31Z","timestamp":1750299031000},"page":"e20250007","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Targeting FLT3 Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: The Role of Quizartinib in Precision"],"prefix":"10.62958","author":[{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-7860-2388","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manoj","family":"Kumbhare","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siddhi","family":"Chandak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bhagwan","family":"Ide","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aishwarya","family":"Dukare","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sakshi","family":"Velhal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harshali","family":"Gode","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nishant","family":"Pagere","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arshad","family":"Shaikh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, SMBT College of Pharmacy, Dhamangaon, Nashik \u2013 422403, India","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"49313","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"container-title":["Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,19]],"date-time":"2025-06-19T02:10:31Z","timestamp":1750299031000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/47.94.85.12:8889\/article\/1929728072854237184"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.62958\/j.cjap.2025.007","relation":{},"ISSN":["1000-6834"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1000-6834","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}}}
