Abstract

Resistance to FLT3 inhibition is a prevalent challenge in managing FLT3-mutant acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A recent study by Sabatier et al. discovered ferroptosis vulnerability in FLT3-mutant AML and they propose a promising therapeutic approach of combining FLT3 inhibitors with ferroptosis inducers for treating this type of cancer.
