Brief summary
This study aims to analyze patients with mutated FLT3 AML treated with specific therapy by means of molecular characterization methods, to identify the presence of clones and subclones at onset and to be able to follow their evolution during therapeutic treatment.
Detailed description
This study aims to analyze patients with mutated FLT3 AML treated with specific therapy by means of single-cell molecular characterization methods, to identify the presence of clones and subclones at onset and to be able to follow their evolution during therapeutic treatment. In this way, it is possible to study how the mutational profile varies under therapeutic pressure and identify any alterations responsible for resistance. It will thus be possible to define a panel of new molecular markers to be included in the diagnostic routine to identify early patients refractory/resistant to treatment with FLT3 inhibitors and thus improve the therapeutic approach of these patients.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Refractoriness to therapy | At the end of the enrollment 3 years | Selected patients, as they are mutated in FLT3, following therapy with specific inhibitors must show refractoriness to treatment in order to continue the study and investigate in single cell the presence of clones or subclones responsible for any relapses. |
