Abstract:In chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), the occurrence of BCR-ABL1 T315I is associated with resistance against first- and second-generation BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). Ponatinib is a third generation TKI that exerts strong anti-neoplastic effects in advanced CML and is capable of suppressing the kinase activity of BCR-ABL1 T315I. However, therapy with ponatinib is associated with potentially severe side effects. In addition, resistance against ponatinib may develop in sub-clones carrying multiple (co… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
