Analysis of Expression Of SIRT1 Gene In Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Resistant To Imatinib Mesylate
Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia is a clonal myeloproliferative disease which is characterized by bcr/abl translocation. With the emergence of tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as imatinib mesylate, significant improvement has been made in treatment of this disease. However, drug resistance against this medicine is still an obstacle. SIRT1 is a gene with deacetylase activity which has been de...
متن کاملEvaluation of Thyroid Dysfunction during Imatinib Therapy in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Background: Imatinib mesylate is the first generation of Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and highly effective in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). We aimed to evaluate thyroid function at baseline and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after initiation of Imatinib mesylate therapy in 20 newly diagnosed BCR-ABL positive CML patients. Methods: This study was done during 2013-2014, 20 new c...
متن کاملSevere skin reaction in a patient with gastrointestinal stromal tumor treated with imatinib mesylate.
Imatinib mesylate is a selective protein kinase inhibitor, highly active in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Cutaneous toxicity, a well-recognized, dose-related side-effect of imatinib mesylate, has been reported in 18 to 69% of patients with GIST treated with doses ranging from 400 to 800 mg once a day. In this case-report a severe skin ...
متن کاملQuantitative approaches to analyzing imatinib-treated chronic myeloid leukemia.
Progress in understanding the genetic changes that drive tumorigenesis has enabled the development of molecularly targeted anticancer therapy. The first small molecule targeted to a specific protein was imatinib mesylate (Gleevec, STI571), which is used to treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). A recent article presents a computational model with which to study the treatment response in CML pati...
متن کاملResponse to Imatinib Mesylate in Patients with Early Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia and Derivative Chromosome 9 Deletion or Clonal Evolution
Objectives: The significance of clonal evolution and derivative chromosome 9 in Philadelphia-positive CML is not fully characterized and studies have yielded conflicting results. After working on emergence of clonal evolution from our region, we continued to find out the response of Imatinib Mesylate on such cases of CML treated in our center. Materials and methods: We conducted a cross section...
متن کاملClinical characteristics and treatment outcome of pediatric patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
As chronic myeloid leukemia is rare in children, most data on imatinib mesylate therapy is derived from adult studies. We retrospectively evaluated pediatric (<14 years) patients with Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia treated with imatinib mesylate, from January 2003 through June 2008. Of the 12 chronic myeloid leukemia patients (2% of all leukemias) 11 were in chronic phase while one had myeloid bl...
