Despite the development of several FLT3 inhibitors that have improved outcomes in patients with FLT3-mutant acute myeloid leukemias (AML), drug resistance is frequently observed, which may be associated with the activation of additional pro-survival pathways such as those regulated by BTK, aurora kinases, and potentially others in addition to acquired tyrosine kinase domains (TKD) mutations of FLT3 gene. This evidence concerns the gene FLT3 and acute myeloid leukemia.
