Novel mutations in the kinase domain of BCR-ABL gene causing imatinib resistance in chronic myeloid leukemia patients
20 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
) CML patients showing conspicuous expression of BCR-ABL gene were treated with imatinib. At the end of 3 months, 21/62 (33.87%) patients did not obtain complete hematological response (CHR) and also showed no significant decrease in BCR-ABL gene expression. In all the imatinib-resistant patients BCR-ABL gene was PCR amplified and sequenced. The sequence analysis showed four novel missense mutations...
