Notes

Found in ~95% of advanced systemic mastocytosis (ASM, SM-AHN, MCL). Confers resistance to type-II KIT inhibitors (imatinib, sunitinib). Avapritinib (Ayvakit) — first KIT D816V-selective TKI; FDA-approved 2021 for advanced SM and 2023 for indolent SM. Midostaurin (Stoffregen 2016): historic standard pre-avapritinib. Bone-marrow mast-cell quantification + tryptase + KIT D816V VAF together define disease burden. Allele-specific PCR is the gold standard for SM diagnosis (sensitivity to ~0.01% VAF).
