Annette,
I was really surprised that they were able to develop a drug that
will cover all of the mutations so quickly. That is a good sign that things are
moving very fast in CML treatments.

Overcomes All Known CML Mutations
Dear Rob, this is fabulous news, so exciting.
Come on FDA, give it approval for clinical trials quickly. People with
T315I need this now. Best wishes Annette

University researchers have developed a new drug that could potentially
treat all forms of Gleevec-resistant chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
Their work is published in this week's early edition of Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences...Recently, two experimental drugs were found
to be effective in circumventing some but not all forms of Gleevec
resistance. Both, for instance, failed to block the activity of a mutant
BCR-ABL, called T315I, which is one of the more predominant mutations seen
in Gleevec-resistant patients. Reddy and his research team sought instead
to develop a drug that would circumvent all of the mutations and therefore
all forms of resistance....when patients become resistant to Gleevec,
our drug kills 100 percent of the cancer cells," said Reddy.
