Abstract excerpt
BCR-ABL kinase domain (KD) mutation is the main mechanism associated with resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. This study targeted a large cohort of CML (n=171) comprising 80 naïve CML cases without prior TKI exposure as well as 91 cases undergoing 1st generation (imatinib) and/or 2nd generation (nilotinib/dasatinib) TKI therapy. KD mutations were analyzed by...
