FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor
- ↓ FLT3-driven proliferation in FLT3-mutant AML
- ITD and TKD mutations differ in which inhibitors retain activity
- Blocks the FLT3 receptor tyrosine kinase driving proliferation in FLT3-mutant AML
- ITD and TKD mutations differ in which inhibitors retain activity
- Class effect: QT prolongation — correct potassium and magnesium before and during
