Vanflyta is a prescription medicine used to treat adult patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that has a specific genetic mutation called FLT3-ITD (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 internal tandem duplication). It is typically used in patients whose AML has either relapsed (returned after treatment) or is refractory (did not respond to previous treatment).
Quizartinib
VANFLYTA (Quizartinib) is a highly selective oral targeted therapy primarily used in the treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Specifically, it is indicated for adult patients whose AML cells carry a particular genetic alteration known as a FLT3-ITD (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 internal tandem duplication) mutation. As a potent FLT3 inhibitor, Vanflyta works by blocking the activity of the mutated FLT3 receptor, which is often overactive in FLT3-ITD positive AML and drives the uncontrolled growth and survival of leukemia cell.

FAQ
How does Vanflyta work?
Vanflyta belongs to a class of drugs called FLT3 inhibitors. It works by blocking the activity of the mutated FLT3 protein, which is an abnormal protein found in some AML cells. By inhibiting this protein, Vanflyta helps to stop the growth and spread of leukemia cells, leading to their death.
How is Vanflyta administered?
Vanflyta is an oral medication taken as a tablet once daily, with or without food. It is usually taken continuously for as long as the patient is benefiting from the treatment or until unacceptable toxicity occurs.
What are the most common side effects of Vanflyta?
Common side effects can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, muscle and joint pain (arthralgia/myalgia), anemia (low red blood cell count), thrombocytopenia (low platelet count), and neutropenia (low white blood cell count). Your doctor will monitor your blood counts regularly.
What serious side effects should I be aware of?
Serious side effects can include QTc prolongation (a potentially dangerous heart rhythm disorder), myelosuppression (severe lowering of blood counts), and liver problems. Patients require regular electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring to check heart rhythm and liver function tests before and during treatment.
What is the FLT3-ITD mutation, and why is it important for Vanflyta?
FLT3-ITD is a specific genetic mutation found in the FLT3 gene in some AML patients. This mutation leads to an overactive FLT3 protein, which drives uncontrolled growth of leukemia cells. Vanflyta is designed to specifically target and inhibit this mutated protein, making it a personalized treatment for patients with this specific genetic alteration.
What is the cost of vanflyta (quizartinib) in India?
