Internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the gene encoding FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) (FLT3-ITD) is the most frequently observed mutation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Currently approved FLT3 kinase inhibitors have high efficacy, but drug resistance caused by reactivation of FLT3 kinase activity is often clinically observed. In this study, we developed novel FLT3 degraders by introducing gilteritinib, an FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitor, into targeted protein degradation technology. The most active compound, CRBN(FLT3)-8, potently degraded FLT3-ITD via the ubiquitin-proteasome system and inhibited the proliferation of FLT3-ITD mutant AML cells more effectively than gilteritinib. These findings provide a new lead compound for degradation-based drugs targeting FLT3-ITD-positive cancers.
