Impact of tyrosine kinase inhibitors on glucose control and insulin regulation in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
Year: 2023
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In this study, we have shown that non-diabetic patients with CML receiving nilotinib therapy show early signs of disturbed skeletal muscle glucose handling, which was not observed in imatinib-treated patients. These observations in nilotinib users may reflect decreased muscle insulin sensitivity, which could serve as a potential target to counteract glycemic dysregulation, and is of clinical importance since these patients have an increased cardiovascular disease risk.
