Clinical resistance to STI-571 cancer therapy caused by BCR-ABL gene mutation or amplification

TL;DR: It is found that drug resistance is associated with the reactivation of BCR-ABL signal transduction in all cases examined and a strategy for identifying inhibitors of STI-571 resistance is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations confer polyclonal resistance to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib (STI571) in chronic phase and blast crisis chronic myeloid leukemia

TL;DR: Through sequencing analysis of blood or bone marrow samples from patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations in 29 of 32 patients whose disease relapsed after an initial response to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical resistance to the kinase inhibitor STI-571 in chronic myeloid leukemia by mutation of Tyr-253 in the Abl kinase domain P-loop.

TL;DR: Because clinical resistance induced by the Y253F mutation might be overcome by dose escalation of STI-571, molecular genotyping of STi-571-resistant patients may provide information useful for rational therapeutic management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphorylation of the ATP-binding loop directs oncogenicity of drug-resistant BCR-ABL mutants

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the oncogenicity of eight kinase inhibitor-resistant BCR-ABL mutants and found a spectrum of potencies greater or less than p210.
