RESUMO
The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represents a new era in the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Despite their long clinical success, point mutations emerging before or during TKI treatment remain an obstacle for several cases. T315I is one of these point mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of BCR::ABL1. It is a major cause of resistance against first- and second-generation TKIs and therefore lowers survival rates of a small group of patients. Olverembatinib (HQP-1351, formerly GZD-824) is a novel, orally active TKI, which acts through targeting the ATP-binding site of the BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase. In recent studies, olverembatinib appears to be an effective and safe treatment option for CML patients harboring T315I mutation. This article mainly focuses on the efficacy and safety data of olverembatinib along with other clinically available and potentially active drugs against T315I-mutated CML.
