Molecular Resistance: An Early Indicator for Treatment Change?

Abstract: Vigilant monitoring of a patient’s response to current treatment is imperative to the management of chronic myeloid leukemia. Early identification of treatment failure may increase the probability that alternative therapy will be effective. This review discusses the use of molecular monitoring in the timely detection of imatinib failure. Changes in the levels of BCR-ABL transcripts are predictive of response or relapse. Patients achieving a major molecular response within 12 months of treatment may experience … Show more

“…The half-life of nilotinib is 15 h. 16 Since food may affect nilotinib absorbtion, it is approved at a schedule of 400 mg twice daily without food for 2 hours before and 1 hour after administration. 24,29 Therapy with nilotinib is very well tolerated. The most commonly observed treatment-related nonhematologic AEs are rash, pruritus, and nausea.…”

“…He was induced with hyper-CVAD and ponatinib (30 mg, qd). After 5 courses of hyper-CVAD plus ponatinib, the patient achieved a partial cytogenetic remission with a bone marrow karyotype of 46,XY,t(9;22)(q34;q11.2) [12]/46,XY [8] and a percentage of b2a2 BCR-ABL1 to ABL1 transcripts of 97.29 in peripheral blood. He is currently waiting for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.…”

“…Nilotinib (Novartis) is a second-generation TKI targeting c-KIT, PDGFR-A and PDGFR-B and is indicated for patients with CML who are resistant or intolerant to imatinib [11]. Recent studies have reported that dasatinib and nilotinib show efficacy as first-line therapies, and both have been approved in the US-FDA for newly diagnosed, chronic-phase CML [24].…”
