Pharmacology
IDH2 inhibitor; enasidenib is a small molecule that selectively targets mutant IDH2 variants (R140Q, R172S, R172K), decreasing 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) levels and inducing myeloid differentiation in IDH2-mutated AML.
Gilteritinib is a small molecule inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases, including FLT3; it inhibits FLT3 receptor signaling and proliferation in cells expressing FLT3-ITD and FLT3 tyrosine kinase domain mutations, and induces apoptosis in leukemic cells expressing FLT3-ITD.
