TYROSINE KINASE INHIBITORS AND INTERFERON
The use of interferon-a (INF) in chronic myeloid leukemia, when it started in the 80s, was considered as a breakthrough in the therapy of this disease; INF administered alone or in combination with aracytine was the standard choice for treatment for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients unfit for bone marrow transplantation. With the appearance

TYROSINE KINASE INHIBITORS AND PREGNANCY
The management of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) during pregnancy has became recently a matter of continuous debate. The introduction of the Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) in clinical practice has dramatically changed the prognosis of CML patients.

Nanomedicine of tyrosine kinase inhibitors
Recent progress in nanomedicine and targeted therapy brings new breeze into the field of therapeutic applications of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). These drugs are known for many side effects due to non-targeted mechanism of action that negatively impact quality of patients' lives or that are responsible for failure of the drugs in clinical trials.

Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors for the Elderly [PDF]
Until few years ago non-specific cytotoxic agents were considered the tip of the arrow as first line treatment for lung cancer. However; age > 75 was considered a major drawback for this kind of therapy. Few exceptions were made by doctors based on the performance status of the patient.

Proteinuria and hypertension with tyrosine kinase inhibitors [PDF]
Tyrosine kinases are important for the development of pathological angiogenesis, a critical factor for survival and proliferation of tumor cells. Inhibition of tyrosine kinases either through targeted binding of its ligands or inhibition of its receptor has led to significant hindrance in angiogenesis and has improved survival for several cancers ...

Development of inhibitors for protein tyrosine kinases [PDF]
In the last 5 years, through combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening, computational chemistry, and traditional medicinal chemistry, numerous inhibitors for various protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) have been developed. The majority of these compounds are small molecules that compete at the ATP binding site of the catalytic domain of the ...

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors for diabetes [PDF]
UCSF researchers have shown that Novartis' Gleevec and Pfizer's Sutent, two small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors, prevented and even reversed type 1 diabetes in mice. It remains to be seen whether short-term use of this drug class can actually produce long-term therapeutic benefits safely.

Latest progress in tyrosine kinase inhibitors
Here we discuss the latest progress in development of some kinase inhibitors such as inhibitors of c-MET, LIM and Bcr-Abl kinases. Importantly, many oncogenic kinases signal via the mTOR pathway, suggesting a common target for drug combinations.

Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Lung Cancer [PDF]
Identification of driver mutations in growth related protein kinases, especially tyrosine kinases, has led to clinical development of an array of tyrosine kinase inhibitors in various malignancies, including lung cancer. Improved understanding of tyrosine kinase biology has led to faster drug development, identification of resistance mechanisms, and ...
