The combination of HSP90 inhibitor PU-H71 and MCL1 inhibitor S63845 may be a candidate treatment for FLT3-mutated AML with moderate CD34 positivity while the combination of HSP90 inhibitor PU-H71 and BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax may be more effective in the treatment of primitive AML with high CD117 and low CD11b positivity. This evidence concerns the gene MCL1 and acute myeloid leukemia.
