| Therapy Name | Tretinoin |
| Synonyms | |
| Therapy Description |
Tretinoin is a form of retinoic acid, which binds to retinoic acid receptors and activates downstream signaling, potentially inducing cell differentiation and subsequently, apoptosis (PMID: 11704842). Tretinoin is FDA approved for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia harboring PML-RARA (FDA.gov). |
Filtering
- Case insensitive filtering will display rows where any text in any cell matches the filter term
- Simple literal full or partial string matches
- Separate multiple filter terms with a spaces, order doesn't matter (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 a longer phrase which contains spaces "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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FLT3 D835Y | acute promyelocytic leukemia | predicted - resistant | Tretinoin | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, a patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia developed meningeal relapse after maintenance therapy with Vesanoid (tretinoin), which was found to be due to a FLT3 D835Y variant (PMID: 27626069). | 27626069 |
| KMT2A - MLLT3 | acute myeloid leukemia | sensitive | Tretinoin | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with Vesanoid (tretinoin) in acute myeloid leukemia cells harboring a KMT2A-MLLT3 fusion induced expression of myeloid differentiation markers, CD11b and PU.1, and resulted in growth inhibition, and in a murine cell model resulted in upregulation of Mac-1 and C/EBPalpha and growth inhibition in culture (PMID: 23063977). | 23063977 |
| KMT2A - AFF4 | leukemia | no benefit | Tretinoin | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with Vesanoid (tretinoin) in murine leukemic cells expressing a KMT2A-AFF4 fusion did not result in upregulation of Mac-1 and C/EBPalpha and resulted in similar growth compared to untreated cells in culture (PMID: 23063977). | 23063977 |
