De novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with concurrent DNMT3A, FLT3 and NPM1 mutations (AMLDNMT3A/FLT3/NPM1) has been suggested to represent a unique AML subset on the basis of integrative genomic analysis, but the clinical features of such patients have not been characterized systematically. This evidence concerns the gene FLT3 and acute myeloid leukemia.
