Title:

Dasatinib treatment of chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia: analysis of responses according to preexisting BCR-ABL mutations

Excerpt:
Here, dasatinib efficacy was analyzed in patients recruited to phase 2/3 trials with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia with or without BCR-ABL mutations after prior imatinib. High response rates were observed in patients with the majority of different BCR-ABL mutation types, including highly imatinib-resistant mutations in L248, Y253, E255, F359, and H396, in addition to other common mutations in G250 and M351 (Figure 4).

Title:

Dasatinib induces significant hematologic and cytogenetic responses in patients with imatinib-resistant or -intolerant chronic myeloid leukemia in accelerated phase

Excerpt:
Mutations were identified in 60 (60%) of these patients (all with imatinib-resistant CML-AP). Despite the presence of imatinib-resistant BCR-ABL mutations and their association with poor prognosis, at 8 months' follow-up, 73% of patients with an imatinib-resistant BCR-ABL mutation had achieved MaHR following treatment with dasatinib.
