Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE Preclinical studies have suggested a role for Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) as a potential therapeutic target in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and anti-AML activity in vivo has been demonstrated with BTK inhibitors. 31227358 2019

Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE New targeted therapies for hematological malignancy include chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T cells), Bi-specific T-cell Engager (BiTE) blinatumomab, and the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) of calicheamicin inotuzumab ozogamicin for acute lymphoblasic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoma; the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3Kδ) inhibitor idelalisib for lymphoma and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD); FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitors, such as midostaurin, sorafenib and gilteritinib for acute myeloid leukemia (AML); and the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax for a range of hematological malignancies including lymphoma and leukemia. 31688198 2019

Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE Thus, our findings indicate that ibrutinib may have a BTK-independent role in AML and that PARG inhibitors may have utility as part of a combination therapy for this disease. 26624983 2016
CUI: C0023467
Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE Here we place the FLT3-ITD upstream of BTK in AML and show that the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib inhibits the survival and proliferation of FLT3-ITD primary AML blasts and AML cell lines. 26292723 2015
CUI: C0023467
Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE These results reported here provide a molecular mechanistic rationale for clinically evaluating BTK inhibition in AML patients and suggests that in some AML patients the blasts count may initially rise in response to ibrutinib therapy, analgous to similar clinical observations in CLL. 25294819 2014
CUI: C0023467
Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 Biomarker disease BEFREE BTK-targeted RNAi knockdown reduced colony-forming capacity of primary AML blasts and proliferation of AML cell lines. 24307721 2014

Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results, although they do not exclude the involvement of Btk mutations in the development or progression of some type of AML, nevertheless suggest that such mutations do not constitute a major co-factor in the development of myeloid malignancies. 9753052 1998
CUI: C0023467
Disease: Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute
0.090 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In addition, the btk gene was found to be expressed in myeloid cell lines and acute myeloid leukemias. btk expression in myeloid cells is probably not a prerequisite for myeloid differentiation, since myeloid cells in XLA patients seem not to be affected. 8258324 1993
