Abstract Text | Constitutively active internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the juxtamembrane domain of Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), a type III receptor tyrosine kinase, is the most common molecular defect associated with acute myeloid leukemia. Its presence confers a poor outcome in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who receive conventional chemotherapy. FLT3-ITD has therefore been considered to be an attractive molecular target for a novel therapeutic modality. We describe here the identification and characterization of Ki23819 as a novel FLT3 inhibitor. Ki23819 suppressed proliferation and induced apoptosis of FLT3-ITD-expressing human leukemia cell lines. The growth-inhibitory effect of Ki23819 on MV4-11 cells was superior to that of SU11248, another FLT3 inhibitor (IC(50)<1 vs 3-10 nM). Ki23819 inhibited the autophosphorylation of FLT3-ITD more efficiently than that of wild-type FLT3. FLT3-ITD-dependent activation of the downstream signaling proteins ERK and STAT5 was also inhibited within similar concentration ranges. Thus, Ki23819 is a potent in vitro inhibitor of FLT3. |

FLT3 exon 14 ins | acute myeloid leukemia | sensitive | Ki23819 | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, acute myeloid leukemia cells harboring a FLT3 internal tandem duplication were sensitive to Ki23819 in culture, demonstrating inhibition of autophosphorylation and downstream signaling, and reduced cell proliferation (PMID: 15815726). | 15815726 |
