1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy characterized by clonal expansion and differentiation arrest of the myeloid progenitor cells, which leads to the accumulation of immature cells called blasts in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. Mutations in the receptor tyrosine kinase FLT3 occur in 30% of normal karyotype patients with AML and are associated with a higher incidence of relapse and worse survival. Targeted therapies against FLT3 mutations using small-molecule FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have long been investigated, with some showing favorable clinical outcomes. However, major setbacks such as limited clinical efficacy and the high risk of acquired resistance remain unresolved. FLT3 signaling, mutations, and FLT3 inhibitors are topics that have been extensively reviewed in recent years. Strategies to target FLT3 beyond the small molecule kinase inhibitors are expanding, nevertheless they are not receiving enough attention. These modalities include antibody-based FLT3 targeted therapies, immune cells mediated targeting strategies, and approaches targeting downstream signaling pathways and FLT3 translation. Here, we review the most recent advances and the challenges associated with the development of therapeutic modalities targeting FLT3 beyond the kinase inhibitors.
