A genomic analysis of Philadelphia chromosome-negative AML arising in patients with CML

Year: 2016
Type: article
Abstract: Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is characterized by the Philadelphia chromosome, an acquired clonal abnormality resulting from translocation of chromosomes 9 and 22, and the generation of the BCR–ABL fusion oncogene. The development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has revolutionized the treatment of CML, as TKI therapy leads to inhibition of BCR–ABL activity, suppression of the BCR–ABL -containing clone and restoration of normal hematopoiesis in the vast majority of cases.
