CML patients with p190 had a median age of 72.5 years at the diagnosis (range: 50-80) and all received imatinib as a frontline treatment. Only one patient achieved a fluctuating major molecular response (MMR) by 12 months while the rest of the patients showed primary resistance to treatment...By exome sequencing we identified 26 variants in p190-CML samples (median per patient=7, range: 2-10), including variants in ASXL1, DNMT3A and KDM4D genes.
