A phase 2 study of MK-0457 in patients with BCR-ABL T315I mutant chronic myelogenous leukemia and philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]

open access: yesBlood Cancer Journal, 2014
Aurora kinase overexpression has been observed in patients with hematologic malignancies. MK-0457, a pan-aurora kinase inhibitor that also inhibits the ABL T315I mutant, was evaluated to treat patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) or ...

Synergistic activity of the new ABL-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI571 and chemotherapeutic drugs on BCR-ABL-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia cells [PDF]

open access: yesLeukemia, 2001
The ABL-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI571 (formerly CGP57148B) induced cytogenetic remissions in 33% of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients in a phase I trial (Druker et al 1999). Combination therapy may increase this proportion. We tested whether combinations of STI571 and cytarabine or other chemotherapeutic agents such as hydroxyurea,

Selective induction of apoptosis in Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia cells by an inhibitor of BCR–ABL tyrosine kinase, CGP 57148 [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 1998
The BCR - ABL tyrosine kinase has been implicated as the cause of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1)-positive leukemias. We report herein that CGP 57148, a selective inhibitor of the ABL tyrosine kinase, caused apoptosis specifically in bcr - abl-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells, K562 and KYO-1.

Analysis of Philadelphia chromosome-negative BCR-ABL-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia by hypermetaphase fluorescence in situ hybridization.

open access: yesAnnals of Oncology, 1999
In 5%-10% of patients with of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) is not identified, despite the presence of the associated BCR-ABL molecular abnormality (Ph-negative, BCR-ABL-positive CML) because of sub-microscopic rearrangements.Six patients with Ph-negative, BCR-ABL-positive CML were investigated.

BCR::ABL1-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia in a scenario of a remote diagnosis of JAK2-V617F-mutated polycythemia vera: a single patient experience with imatinib and ruxolitinib combination therapy [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Hematology
We report the case of a 51-year-old male patient initially diagnosed with JAK2-V617F-mutated polycythemia vera (PV), who developed chronic phase BCR::ABL1-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) 11 years later.

Safety and efficacy of STI-571 (imatinib mesylate) in patients with bcr/abl-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) [PDF]

open access: yesLeukemia, 2002
We examined safety and efficacy of STI-571 in 24 bcr/abl-positive patients with CML post PBSCT. At start of STI-571 therapy, nine patients presented in blast crisis (BC) or in accelerated phase (AP), and 15 in chronic phase (CP). Patients were evaluated for hematologic, cytogenetic and molecular response, survival and toxicity.

Detection of two alternative bcr/abl mRNA junctions and minimal residual disease in Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myelogenous leukemia by polymerase chain reaction. [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1989
The Philadelphia (Ph′) chromosome in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) results in fusion of the bcr gene and c-abl oncogene, which transcribes into two types of chimeric bcr/abl mRNAs: the L-6 junction and the K-28 junction. By means of a highly sensitive assay, combination of reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT/PCR), we analyzed ...

The relationship between the type of bcr-abl hybrid messenger RNA and thrombopoiesis in Philadelphia-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia. [PDF]

open access: yesLeukemia & Lymphoma, 1993
Formation of the Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome, which contains the hybrid bcr-abl gene, is thought to be the initial event in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). The positions of the breakpoint within the breakpoint cluster region (bcr) on the bcr-abl gene in 22 chronic-phase cases of Ph1-positive CML were determined using conventional Southern blots ...

Nilotinib (formerly AMN107), a highly selective BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is effective in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase following imatinib resistance and intolerance.

open access: yesBlood, 2007
Abstract Nilotinib, an orally bioavailable, selective Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is 30-fold more potent than imatinib in pre-clinical models, and overcomes most imatinib resistant BCR-ABL mutations. In this phase 2 open-label study, 400 mg nilotinib was administered orally twice daily to 280 patients with Philadelphia chromosome ...

Performance characteristics of the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) assay for BCR::ABL1 monitoring in chronic myelogenous leukemia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a hematopoietic stem cell malignancy that accounts for 15-20% of all cases of leukemia. CML is caused by a translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 which creates an abnormal fusion gene, BCR::ABL1.
