Abstract
Myelosuppression is one of the most severe and limiting side effects of chemotherapy. Our recent work outlines a strategy to prevent chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression by administering a priming dose of the FMS-Like Tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitor quizartinib. Furthermore, by administering sequential quizartinib primed injections of fluorouracil (5-FU), we demonstrated a novel and effective strategy to eliminate disease in two mouse models of quizartinib resistant acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Entities:
