Regulatory approval
Published by the Health Service Executive.
The Republic of Ireland's Health Service Executive (HSE) has approved gilteritinib as a treatment option for the treatment of adult patients who have relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with a FLT3 mutation. In the event that patients re-initiate gilteritinib post haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) as maintenance therapy, gilteritinib treatment should be restricted to patients who are minimal residual disease (MRD)-positive post-transplant.
This is written in the approval document as:

In the event that patients re-initiate gilteritinib post haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) as maintenance therapy, gilteritinib treatment should be restricted to patients who are minimal residual disease (MRD)-positive post-transplant.
