Overview

Generic Name(s):
midostaurin
Trade Name(s):
Rydapt
NCI Definition [1]:
A synthetic indolocarbazole multikinase inhibitor with potential antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activities. Midostaurin inhibits protein kinase C alpha (PKCalpha), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), c-kit, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) tyrosine kinases, which may result in disruption of the cell cycle, inhibition of proliferation, apoptosis, and inhibition of angiogenesis in susceptible tumors.

Biomarker-Directed Therapies

Midostaurin has been investigated in 18 clinical trials, of which 9 are open and 9 are closed. Of the trials investigating midostaurin, 3 are phase 1 (2 open), 3 are phase 1/phase 2 (2 open), 7 are phase 2 (2 open), 1 is phase 2/phase 3 (1 open), 3 are phase 3 (2 open), and 1 is no phase specified (0 open).

FLT3 ITD, FLT3 Codon 835 Missense, and FLT3 Codon 836 Missense are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for midostaurin clinical trials.

Acute myeloid leukemia is the most common disease being investigated in midostaurin clinical trials [2].
