Abstract excerpt
Some chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) do not respond or relapse. BCR-ABL1 mutations are the principal cause of TKI resistance, but the kinetics of emerging mutations in CML patients treated with imatinib remain to be determined. To investigate the emergence dynamics of mutations and their effects on outcomes, we conducted a systematically longitudinal study of...
