Phase II trial of imatinib mesylate in patients with PDGFRA/B-negative hypereosinophilic syndrome. [PDF]
Summary The role of imatinib in PDGFRA/B‐negative hypereosinophilic syndromes (HES) is controversial because of the heterogeneity of HES and the scarcity of prospective studies. We conducted a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of imatinib in PDGFRA/B‐negative HES. Thirty‐two patients were treated with imatinib (100–400 mg daily), and the
