Abstract

There has been extraordinary progress in the field of targeted therapy for myeloid malignancies in the last few years, especially due to the approval of various agents that can be used as monotherapy or in combination as first-line treatment or when facing a refractory or relapsed disease. Many successful trials have been conducted recently, and a consistent body of work about the efficacy of novel molecules is now available. In this review, we sought to explain how enasidenib and ivosidenib have changed the face of myeloid neoplasm treatment through isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibition and to summarize the trials results that have led to the current commercial indications for the two molecules.

Keywords: AML; Enasidenib; Ivosidenib; MDS; Targeted therapy.
