Mutations of FLT3 occur in around a third of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and are associated with poor outcomes. Multiple targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TICI) have been developed with different selectivity and potency for FLT3 mutant clones. Indications for which FLT3 inhibitor to use depend on the clinical setting and disease status. Patients with relapsed or refractory AML benefit from a different TKI than those with de novo AML or following stem cell transplant. Moreover, each FLT3 TKI displays a different toxicity and inhibitory profile and may be most useful in patients with varying comorbidities and types of FLT3 mutations.
