MiRNAs expression profiling in circulating lymphocytes of CML patients after imatinib discontinuation
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Some chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with complete molecular response (CMR) are considered able to sustain the CMR after imatinib discontinuation (STOP-IM). Mahon et al. reported that among patients with a CMR lasting at least 2 consecutive years, the CMR was sustained in 41% after imatinib discontinuation. To more appropriately identify patients who can safely discontinue imatinib, we assessed the miRNA profiles of CML patients. We compared CML patients who sustained CMR for more than 6 months after discontinuation of imatinib (STOP-IM group) with those who were receiving imatinib with CMR (currently called as UMD: undetermined minimal disease), and with healthy volunteers (controls).
