Abstract Text Purpose: Develop a next generation FLT3 TKI to overcome previous resistance mechanisms. Description: Preclinical testing of PHI-101 for efficacy against FLT3 mutations both in vitro and in vivo in cell lines and primary FLT3 mutant leukemia samples. Summary: Mutations in the FLT3 gene are common in AML, occurring in approximately 1/3 of patients and result in poor prognosis for AML patients with FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations. Thus, it is a well-validated target for the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). A number of FLT3 TKI have been developed and the latest generation have proven increasingly successful at achieving thorough inhibition of FLT3 kinase activity in vivo, a necessary requirement for clinical efficacy against FLT3 mutant AML. Major reasons for the failure of some FLT3 TKI to achieve thorough inhibition include tight binding to alpha 1 acid glycoprotein (AGP) resulting in inadequate free levels of the drug and selection for resistance mutations within FLT3 itself. Resistance mutations within FLT3 have included those at D835 and F691 among others. We present here the initial preclinical data on a new FLT3 TKI, PHI-101, developed to overcome some of these mechanisms of resistance. PHI-101 is a potent small molecule inhibitor of both FLT3/ITD and FLT3/D835Y mutations with an IC50 of 5 nM and 11.1 nM, respectively, in cell-based assays. It is active against a number of FLT3/ITD resistance mutations including FLT3/ITD/A627T, FLT3/ITD/N676D, FLT3/ITD/F691L, with IC50s of 0.1nM, 2.3nM, 14.6nM, respectively. It is also active against FLT3 kinase domain (FLT3/KD) resistance mutations, with IC50s against FLT3/D835A and FLT3/840GS of 5.3nM and 9.6nM, respectively. Furthermore, it is active against the FLT3/ITD/KD and FLT3/ITD/F691 resistance mutations. We also demonstrate its effectiveness in inhibiting FLT3 activity by Western blot analysis. Importantly, when analyzed in the human plasma inhibitory assay (PIA), its IC50 shifts only 8.5-fold, unlike several other FLT3 TKI with shifts of >200-fold, rendering them unable to sufficiently inhibit FLT3 mutations in vivo. PHI-101 monotherapy induces dose-dependent regression of tumor growth measured with bioluminescence in FLT3-ITD mutant xenograft models. In addition, PHI-101 significantly inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in primary AML samples expressing FLT3/ITD and FLT3/KD mutations, but not wild-type FLT3. These effects suggest it is selective for primary AML with FLT3 mutations, comparable to that of Giltertinib, the newly-approved FLT3 TKI. PHI-101 will soon undergo first-in-human clinical trials in FLT3 mutant AML patients. Conclusion: PHI-101 is a new FLT3 TKI with characteristics that warrant entry into human trials.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
