Abstract excerpt
Patients with chronic myeloid leukemia develop resistance to both first-generation and second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as a result of mutations in the kinase domain (KD) of BCR-ABL1. A wide range of BCR-ABL1 KD mutations that confer resistance to TKIs have been identified, and the T315I mutant has proven particularly difficult to target. This review summarizes the prevalence, impact, and...
