Menin Inhibitors to Treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Get up to date on menin inhibitors, an emerging class of targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Menin is a key component of the KMT2A (lysine methyltransferase 2A, formerly MLL1) complex, which plays a critical role in gene regulation, development, and cell cycle control. Small-molecule menin inhibitors have shown particular promise in KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2Ar) and NPM1-mutated AML, with two agents already receiving FDA breakthrough therapy designation. 

In this episode, Dr Scott Armstrong and Prof Marc Raaijmakers explore the scientific rationale behind menin inhibition, identify which AML patient populations are most likely to benefit, and review the current clinical evidence supporting their use in defined molecular subtypes.
