Midostaurin (Rydapt)

==General information==
Class/mechanism: FLT3 inhibitor, tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Midostaurin or its active metabolites CGP62221 and CGP52421 inhibit activity of wild type FLT3, FLT3 mutant kinases (ITD and TKD), KIT (wild type and D816V mutant), PDGFRα/β, VEGFR2, and members of the serine/threonine kinase PKC (protein kinase C) family. Midostaurin induced apoptosis in leukemic cells expressing ITD and TKD mutant FLT3 receptors or overexpressing wild type FLT3 and PDGF receptors. Midostaurin also causes apoptosis in mast cells and inhibits histamine release, proliferation, and KIT signaling.Midostaurin (Rydapt) package insert Midostaurin (Rydapt) package insert (locally hosted backup)Rydapt manufacturer's website

==History of changes in FDA indication==
*2017-04-28: FDA approved for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are FLT3 mutation-positive (FLT3+), as detected by an FDA-approved test, in combination with standard cytarabine and daunorubicin induction and cytarabine consolidation. (Based on RATIFY)

==History of changes in EMA indication==
*2017-09-18: Initial authorization in combination with standard daunorubicin and cytarabine induction and high dose cytarabine consolidation chemotherapy, and for patients in complete response followed by Rydapt single agent maintenance therapy, for adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) who are FLT3 mutation positive.
*2017-09-18: Initial authorization as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM), systemic mastocytosis with associated haematological neoplasm (SM AHN), or mast cell leukaemia (MCL).
