Alterations in creatine kinase, phosphate and lipid values in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia during treatment with imatinib.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Imatinib, the treatment of choice for chronic myeloid leukemia, is generally well tolerated. We present here data from a retrospective analysis on metabolic abnormalities occurring during therapy which show increased creatine kinase, inverse creatine kinase-phosphate correlation, cholesterol and triglyceride values.

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...

This report describes an 89-year-old woman diagnosed with Philadelphia positive Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in 2007 who was initially treated with 200 mg/day imatinib. The patient demonstrated complete molecular response (CMR) in two tests in 2015 and 2018. During treatment between 2007 and 2019, despite increased dosage of imatinib and switching her therapy to nilotinib, complete hematological r...
متن کاملStudy of STAT3 Expression in Different Phases of Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Background and Aim: Chronic myeloid leukemia(CML) is a clonal myeloproliferative disease, characterized by BCR/ABL translocation. Using tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as Imatinib, treatment for this disease has progressed remarkably. However, resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitor is a major obstacle. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3) is an important transcription fact...
