Abstract excerpt
FLT3 mutations drive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression through aberrant signaling, making FLT3 inhibition a key therapeutic strategy. Current inhibitors show efficacy, yet resistance and toxicity remain challenges. Emerging approaches, including selective inhibitors, proteolysis-targeting chimeras, and protein degraders, offer enhanced potency, sustained suppression, and combinatorial potential,...
