ASH 2022 | QuANTUM-First: association between FLT3-ITD-specific MRD clearance and survival in patients with AML

Alexander Perl, MD, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, highlights findings from the Phase III QuANTUM-First trial (NCT02668653), which investigated the efficacy of the selective FLT3 inhibitor quizartinib in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Dr Perl explains that this study demonstrated that treatment with intensive induction chemotherapy and quizartinib improved overall survival for patients with newly diagnosed FLT3-ITD+ AML. In addition to this, a reduction in the FLT3-ITD-specific measurable residual disease (MRD) burden was associated with improved survival in all treatment arms. This interview took place at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition congress in New Orleans, LA.
