Naval DaverDuring the 25th Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA), the AML Hub spoke to a member of our steering committee, Naval Daver, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, US, about novel approaches and emerging therapies for TP53 AML.
Approaches and emerging therapies for TP53 AML
Identification of disease-driving genetic aberrations has allowed for major advancements in the AML setting. TP53 mutations are observed in around 15% of patients with AML, with distinct patterns between patient subsets. Despite the development of targeted therapies, such as FLT3 and IDH1/2 inhibitors, treatments targeting TP53 mutations are yet to be established.
TP53-mutant AML is an area of unmet need, demonstrating high interpatient heterogeneity. Here, Naval Daver describes the efforts being made to establish TP53 as a therapeutic target, with the aim to further improve patient outcomes.
