Constitutively active internal tandem duplication ( ITD) in the juxtamembrane domain of Fms- like tyrosine kinase 3 ( FLT3), a type III receptor tyrosine kinase, is the most common molecular defect associated with acute myeloid leukemia. Its presence confers a poor outcome in patients with acute myeloid leukemia who receive conventional chemotherapy. FLT3- ITD has therefore been considered to be an attractive molecular target for a novel therapeutic modality. We describe here the identification and characterization of Ki23819 as a novel FLT3 inhibitor. Ki23819 suppressed proliferation and induced apoptosis of FLT3- ITD- expressing human leukemia cell lines. The growth-inhibitory effect of Ki23819 on MV4- 11 cells was superior to that of SU11248, another FLT3 inhibitor ( IC50 < 1 vs 3 - 10 nM). Ki23819 inhibited the autophosphorylation of FLT3- ITD more efficiently than that of wild- type FLT3. FLT3- ITD- dependent activation of the downstream signaling proteins ERK and STAT5 was also inhibited within similar concentration ranges. Thus, Ki23819 is a potent in vitro inhibitor of FLT3.
