Date of revision WHAT RYDAPT IS USED FOR Rydapt contains the active substance midostaurin. It belongs to a class of medicines called protein kinase inhibitors. Rydapt is used to treat acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in adults who have a defect in a gene called FLT3. Acute myeloid leukaemia is a form of cancer of certain white blood cells (called myeloid cells) in which the body over-produces an abnormal type of these cells. Rydapt is also used in adults to treat aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM), systemic mastocytosis with associated haematological neoplasm (SM-AHN), or mast cell leukaemia (MCL). These are disorders in which the body produces too many mast cells, a type of white blood cell. Symptoms are caused when too many mast cells enter organs such as the liver, bone marrow or spleen, and release substances such as histamine into the blood. HOW RYDAPT WORKS Midostaurin blocks the action of some enzymes (kinases) in the abnormal cells and stops their division and growth. At the start of treatment in AML Rydapt is always used together with chemotherapy (medicines for treating cancer). If you have any questions about how Rydapt works or why this medicine has been prescribed for you, ask your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.
