Quality of life on imatinib

Seminars in Hematology, 2003
Imatinib (Gleevec), a highly effective specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor, demonstrates a better side effect profile than interferon-alpha (IFN), which impairs patients' quality of life (QoL). This phase III international study evaluated QoL outcomes in 1,106 newly diagnosed patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who were randomized

Imatinib Mesylate

2009
Imatinib mesylate (Gleevec, Glivec [Novartis, Basel, Switzerland], formerly referred to as STI571 or CGP57148B) represents the paradigm of a new class of anticancer agents, so-called small molecules. They have a high selectivity against a specific molecular target known to be the cause for the establishment and maintenance of the malignant phenotype ...

Clinical Pharmacokinetics of Imatinib

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2005
Imatinib is a potent and selective inhibitor of the protein tyrosine kinase Bcr-Abl, platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRalpha and PDGFRbeta) and KIT. Imatinib is approved for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST), which have dysregulated activity of an imatinib-sensitive kinase as the ...

Pharmacology of imatinib (STI571)

European Journal of Cancer, 2002
Deregulation of protein kinase activity has been shown to play a central role in the pathogenesis of human cancer. The molecular pathogenesis of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) in particular, depends on formation of the bcr-abl oncogene, leading to constitutive expression of the tyrosine kinase fusion protein, Bcr-Abl.

The development and application of imatinib

Expert Opinion on Drug Safety, 2005
The hallmark characteristics of cancer include an unrestrained proliferation involving activation of growth signals, loss of negative regulation and dysfunctional apoptotic pathways. Targeting abnormal cell signalling pathways should provide a more selective approach to cancer treatment than conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy. Tyrosine kinases play an

Simultaneous Administration of AMN107 and Imatinib in the Treatment of Imatinib-Sensitive and Imatinib-Resistant Chronic Myeloid Leukemia.

Blood, 2005
Abstract Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are caused by the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase oncogene. The Abl inhibitor imatinib is an effective, frontline therapy for early, chronic phase CML. However, accelerated or blast crisis phase CML and Ph+ ALL patients often

Imatinib treatment and Aβ42 in humans

Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2013
AbstractBackgroundThe first‐line treatment in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), imatinib, has been shown to decrease the production of amyloid‐β (Aβ) in vitro and in animal studies. However, whether imatinib has this effect in humans is not known.MethodsPlasma levels of Aβ42 were analyzed in sequential samples from CML patients treated with imatinib (n =

Retargeting imatinib

Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology, 2011
Imatinib is an anticancer therapy that acts as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of the BCR–ABL oncoprotein, as well as c-Kit and the platelet-derived growth factor receptor. This targeted therapy is the standard of care for adults newly diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in the chronic phase and has demonstrated efficacy in patients with ...
