Summary
- This summary is based on the review of one systematic review/meta-analysis. [1]
- In a network meta-analysis of 1,358 patients with newly diagnosed the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3)-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), there were no significant differences in overall survival (OS) among midostaurin, quizartinib (VANFLYTA), and sorafenib. The hazard ratio (HR) for OS between midostaurin and quizartinib was 1.00 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.73-1.36), and between quizartinib and sorafenib was 0.97 (95% CI, 0.51-1.85).
- Quizartinib’s effectiveness in terms of OS was comparable to midostaurin and sorafenib, with no significant differences observed among these three FLT3 inhibitors.
- There is no safety information available in the reviewed documents.
- There is no population types or subgroups information available in the reviewed documents.
