Key Findings

In this international, double-blind study, crenolanib, a potent and selective Type I pan-FLT3 inhibitor, was administered with standard salvage chemotherapy in adults with R/R FLT3-mutated AML.

  • The trial met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement in event-free survival (EFS) (3.4 vs. 0.0 months; HR = 0.64, p = 0.0145) compared with chemotherapy alone.
  • The complete remission (CR/CRi) rate was higher in the crenolanib arm (60% vs. 39%).
  • In patients harboring co-mutations in FLT3 and NPM1, median overall survival doubled (12.4 vs. 6.3 months; HR = 0.53, p = 0.0314).
  • Crenolanib demonstrated a manageable safety profile consistent with prior studies.

These results reinforce crenolanibs role as a foundational FLT3-targeted therapy and support its continued clinical development in post-transplant and minimal residual disease (MRD)-positive settings, where disease interception, maintenance, and relapse prevention remain key unmet needs.

About Crenolanib 

Crenolanib is a next-generation, orally available Type I FLT3 inhibitor with potent and selective activity against both FLT3-ITD and FLT3-TKD mutations. Unlike earlier-generation inhibitors, crenolanib retains activity against resistant FLT3 variants and has demonstrated durable efficacy in combination regimens. Arog is advancing exploring its role as a post-transplant maintenance and relapse-prevention therapy aimed at long-term disease control and improved survival outcomes.
