Bcr-Abl mutations, resistance to imatinib, and imatinib plasma levels [PDF]
Corbin and colleagues analyze in their report[1][1] the biochemical and biologic effects of several mutations in the kinase domain of the Bcr-Abl protein identified in patients who developed resistance to imatinib.

SRCircumventing imatinib resistance [PDF]
The ABL inhibitor imatinib is a highly effective therapy for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Relapses after an initial response have been observed in some patients, and mutations of the BCR-ABL gene are the most common mechanism driving these relapses.

Exploiting the promiscuity of imatinib [PDF]
The protein kinase inhibitor imatinib, also known as Gleevec, has been a notable success in treating chronic myelogenous leukemia. A recent paper in BMC Structural Biology reports a 1.75 A crystal structure of imatinib bound to the oxidoreductase NQO2 and reveals insights into the binding specificity and the off-target effects of the inhibitor.

Imatinib mesylate in chordoma [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDTo the authors' knowledge, no effective medical therapy currently is available for advanced chordoma. Imatinib mesylate is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting platelet‐derived growth factor receptor‐β (PDGFRB), BCR‐ABL, and KIT.METHODSSix patients with advanced chordoma were treated with imatinib mesylate at a dose of 800 mg daily ...

A rare case of melanosis of the hard palate mucosa in a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]
Imatinib Mesylate, also known as Gleevec or ST1-571, is a tyrosine-kinase inhibitor used as the gold standard medication for the chronic myeloid leukemia (CML); Imatinib has indeed deeply revolutionized the CML therapy allowing most patients to have a ...

Cholesterol esterification inhibition and imatinib treatment synergistically inhibit growth of BCR-ABL mutation-independent resistant chronic myelogenous leukemia [PDF]
Since the advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) prognosis has improved greatly. However, ~30-40% of patients develop resistance to imatinib therapy.
