Abstract:
The addition of midostaurin to standard chemotherapy has improved survival in patients with FLT3 -mutated AML. However, the impact of midostaurin and other FLT3 inhibitors (FLT3i) on cardiovascular adverse events (CAEs) has not been studied in patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in a real-world setting. We reviewed 132 patients with AML who were treated with intensive induction therapy and consecutive allogeneic stem cell transplantation at our institution (42 FLT3 -mutated AML and 90 with FLT3 wildtype). We identified treatment with midostaurin and/or FLT3i as an independent risk factor for CAEs not resulting in higher non-relapse mortality (NRM) or impaired overall survival (OS). Hence, close monitoring for CAEs is warranted for these patients.
