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

purpose of reviewThis review aims to summarize the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and management of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) mutations. RECENT

findingsThe recent European Leukemia Net (ELN2022) recommendations re-classified AML with FLT3 internal tandem duplications (FLT3-ITD) as intermediate risk regardless of Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) co-mutation or the FLT3 allelic ratio. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) is now recommended for all eligible patients with FLT3-ITD AML. This review outlines the role of FLT3 inhibitors in induction and consolidation, as well as for post-alloHCT maintenance. It outlines the unique challenges and advantages of assessing FLT3 measurable residual disease (MRD) and discusses the pre-clinical basis for the combination of FLT3 and menin inhibitors. And, for the older or unfit patient ineligible for upfront intensive chemotherapy, it discusses the recent clinical trials incorporating FLT3 inhibitors into azacytidine- and venetoclax-based regimens. Finally, it proposes a rational sequential approach for integrating FLT3 inhibitors into less intensive regimens, with a focus on improved tolerability in the older and unfit patient population. The management of AML with FLT3 mutation remains a challenge in clinical practice. This review provides an update on the pathophysiology and therapeutic landscape of FLT3 AML, as well as a clinical management framework for managing the older or unfit patient ineligible for intensive chemotherapy.
