We report a retrospective study of four pediatric patients with AML with t(8:21) and KIT exon 17 mutation who were treated with avapritinib, three of them failed to demethylate drugs and donor lymphocyte infusion targeting RUNX1::RUNX1T1-positivity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Here, KIT is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
