Abstract excerpt
Quantitative monitoring of imatinib mesylate (IM)-resistant, mutated BCR-ABL(+) cells during the follow-up of CML could be useful for optimizing therapeutic management. We retrospectively analyzed T315I mutated BCR-ABL clones throughout the CML history of two patients by nested-PCR-RFLP. At the time of progression, the T315I mutation represented 100% of the BCR-ABL transcripts. During follow-up, we showed that...
