t(5;6;12) associated with resistance to imatinib mesylate in chronic myeloid leukemia

Abstract: A patient with t(9;22)-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) developed a resistance to therapy with imatinib mesylate (Glivec) which coincided with the appearance of t(5;6;12) in the same cells with t(9;22) [46,XX,t(5;6;12)(q14?;q21?;q23?),t(9;22)(q34;q11)]. She remains in a continuous chronic phase of CML. This is the first reported instance of karyotype evolution temporally associated, and possibly involved, with the induction of resistance to imatinib mesylate but without any signs of evolution of leu… Show more

“…Karyotype changes in Ph+ clone emerged 40 months after the imatinib therapy was started, as the only sign of disease relapse. This distinctive karyotype included complex translocation and the rare event of centromere fission which were previously published [10,11]. Negative search for mutations by Sanger sequencing in the kinase domain further contributed to the complexity of the case.…”

“…CIN is responsible for pre-treatment existance or acquisition during treatment of multiple mechanisms contributing to (multi)drug resistance. It is well documented that CIN significantly correlates with inherent and acquired (multi)drug resistance [68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84] and (multi)drug/chemoresistance acquisition is accompanied by new evolved chromosome imbalances [74,76,80,81,[168][169][170][171][172][173][174][175][176][177][178][179][180]. In support, RNA and protein expression profiles after drug-resistance acquisition differ from parental drug-sensitive cells in expression of tens to thousands genes [174,179,[181][182][183][184][185][186][187][188][189].…”
