Abstract
Host-acting compounds are emerging as potential alternatives to combating antibiotic resistance. Here, we show that bosutinib, an FDA-approved chemotherapeutic for treating chronic myelogenous leukemia, does not possess any antibiotic activity but enhances macrophage responses to bacterial infection. In vitro, bosutinib stimulates murine and human macrophages to kill bacteria more effectively. In a murine wound infection with vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis, a single intraperitoneal bosutinib injection or multiple topical applications on the wound reduce the bacterial load by approximately 10-fold, which is abolished by macrophage depletion. Mechanistically, bosutinib stimulates macrophage phagocytosis of bacteria by upregulating surface expression of bacterial uptake markers Dectin-1 and CD14 and promoting actin remodeling. Bosutinib also stimulates bacterial killing by elevating the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species. Moreover, bosutinib drives NF-κB activation, which protects infected macrophages from dying. Other Src kinase inhibitors such as DMAT and tirbanibulin also upregulate expression of bacterial uptake markers in macrophages and enhance intracellular bacterial killing. Finally, cotreatment with bosutinib and mitoxantrone, another chemotherapeutic in clinical use, results in an additive effect on bacterial clearance in vitro and in vivo. These results show that bosutinib stimulates macrophage clearance of bacterial infections through multiple mechanisms and could be used to boost the host innate immunity to combat drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Abstract
To combat multifactorial refractory diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative diseases, multitarget drugs have become an emerging area of research aimed at 'synthetic lethality' (SL) relationships associated with drug-resistance mechanisms. In this review, we discuss the in silico design of dual and triple-targeted ligands, strategies by which specific 'warhead' groups are incorporated into a parent compound or scaffold with primary inhibitory activity against one target to develop one small molecule that inhibits two or three molecular targets in an effort to increase potency against multifactorial diseases. We also discuss the analytical exploration of structure-activity relationships (SARs), physicochemical properties, polypharmacology, scaffold feature extraction of US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved multikinase inhibitors (MKIs), and updates regarding the clinical status of dual-targeted chemotypes.

Repurposing the Bis-Biguanide Alexidine in Combination with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors to Eliminate Leukemic Stem/Progenitor Cells in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15030995. [PMID: 36765952 PMCID: PMC9913472 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15030995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In CML, Leukemic Stem Cells (LSCs) that are insensitive to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors are responsible for leukemia maintenance and relapses upon TKI treatment arrest. We previously showed that downregulation of the BMI1 polycomb protein that is crucial for stem/progenitor cells self-renewal induced a CCNG2/dependent proliferation arrest leading to elimination of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) cells. Unfortunately, as of today, pharmacological inhibition of BMI1 has not made its way to the clinic. METHODS We used the Connectivity Map bioinformatic database to identify pharmacological molecules that could mimick BMI1 silencing, to induce CML cell death. We selected the bis-biguanide Alexidin (ALX) that produced a transcriptomic profile positively correlating with the one obtained after BMI silencing in K562 CML cells. We then evaluated the efficiency of ALX in combination with TKI on CML cells. RESULTS Here we report that cell growth and clonogenic activity of K562 and LAMA-84 CML cell lines were strongly inhibited by ALX. ALX didn't modify BCR::ABL1 phosphorylation and didn't affect BMI1 expression but was able to increase CCNG2 expression leading to autophagic processes that preceed cell death. Besides, ALX could enhance the apoptotic response induced by any Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKI) of the three generations. We also noted a strong synergism between ALX and TKIs to increase expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3 and induce PARP cleavage, Bad expression and significantly decreased Bcl-xL family member expression. We also observed that the blockage of the mitochondrial respiratory chain by ALX can be associated with inhibition of glycolysis by 2-DG to achieve an enhanced inhibition of K562 proliferation and clonogenicity. ALX specifically affected the differentiation of BCR::ABL1-transduced healthy CD34+ cells but not of mock-infected healthy CD34+ control cells. Importantly, ALX strongly synergized with TKIs to inhibit clonogenicity of primary CML CD34+ cells from diagnosed patients. Long Term Culture of Initiating Cell (LTC-IC) and dilution of the fluorescent marker CFSE allowed us to observe that ALX and Imatinib (IM) partially reduced the number of LSCs by themselves but that the ALX/IM combination drastically reduced this cell compartment. Using an in vivo model of NSG mice intravenously injected with K562-Luciferase transduced CML cells, we showed that ALX combined with IM improved mice survival. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our results validate the use of ALX bis-biguanide to potentiate the action of conventional TKI treatment as a potential new therapeutic solution to eradicate CML LSCs.

Abstract
Mucin MUC4 is an aberrantly expressed oncogene in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), yet no pharmacological inhibitors have been identified to target MUC4. Here, we adapted an in silico screening method using the Cancer Therapeutic Response Database (CTRD) to Identify Small Molecule Inhibitors against Mucins (SMIMs). We identified Bosutinib as a candidate drug to target oncogenic mucins among 126 FDA-approved drugs from CTRD screening. Functionally, Bosutinib treatment alone/and in combination with gemcitabine (Gem)/5' fluorouracil (5FU) reduced in vitro viability, migration, and colony formation in multiple PDAC cell lines as well as human PDAC organoid prolifertaion and growth and in vivo xenograft growth. Further, biochemical and molecular analyses showed that Bosutinib exhibited these functional effects by downregulating MUC4 mucin at both transcript and translation levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Mechanistically, global transcriptome analysis in PDAC cells upon treatment with Bosutinib revealed disruption of the Src-ERK/AKT-FosL1 pathway, leading to decreased expression of MUC4 and MUC5AC mucins. Taken together, Bosutinib is a promising, novel, and highly potent SMIMs to target MUC4/MUC5AC mucins. This mucin-targeting effect of Bosutinib can be exploited in the future with cytotoxic agents to treat mucinous tumors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug repositioning (DR) is defined as determining new therapeutic applications for existing drugs. This approach is advantageous over de novo drug discovery in accelerating clinical development, in terms of lower costs, a shortened development period, a well-known action mechanism, a feasible dosage, and an acceptable safety profile. AREAS COVERED This work was aimed at reviewing agents with successful DR in hematology. EXPERT OPINION Thalidomide and plerixafor have been successfully repositioned for treating multiple myeloma and harvesting peripheral blood stem cells, respectively. The former was originally developed as a sedative and the latter as an anti-HIV drug. Currently, the feasibility of repositioning various agents is being explored (e.g. an anti-influenza virus drug oseltamivir for primary immune thrombocytopenia, an anti-HIV drug abacavir for adult T-cell leukemia, and a macrolide antibiotic clarithromycin for multiple myeloma). Furthermore, bosutinib for chronic myeloid leukemia or the antiplatelet drug cilostazol have been suggested to have clinical benefits for the management of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and ischemic stroke, respectively. To promote DR, effective application of artificial intelligence or stem cell models, comprehensive database construction shared between academia and pharmaceutical companies, suitable handling of drug patents, and wide cooperation in the area of specialty are warranted.

Abstract
The use of small molecules became one key cornerstone of targeted anti-cancer therapy. Among them, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are especially important, as they were the first molecules to proof the concept of targeted anti-cancer treatment. Since 2001, TKIs can be successfully used to treat chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). CML is a hematologic neoplasm, predominantly caused by reciprocal translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) leading to formation of the so-called BCR-ABL1 fusion gene. By binding to the BCR-ABL1 kinase and inhibition of downstream target phosphorylation, TKIs, such as imatinib or nilotinib, can be used as single agents to treat CML patients resulting in 80 % 10-year survival rates. However, treatment failure can be observed in 20-25 % of CML patients occurring either dependent or independent from the BCR-ABL1 kinase. Here, we review approved TKIs that are indicated for the treatment of CML, their side effects and limitations. We point out mechanisms of TKI resistance focusing either on BCR-ABL1-dependent mechanisms by summarizing the clinically observed BCR-ABL1-mutations and their implications on TKI binding, as well as on BCR-ABL1-independent mechanisms of resistances. For the latter, we discuss potential mechanisms, among them cytochrome P450 implications, drug efflux transporter variants and expression, microRNA deregulation, as well as the role of alternative signaling pathways. Further, we give insights on how TKI resistance could be analyzed and what could be learned from studying TKI resistance in CML in vitro.

Abstract
Simple Summary The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib was the first targeted therapy to show clinical efficacy against chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) through inhibition of the breakpoint cluster region–Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog (BCR-ABL), which is responsible for the disease. Two other generations of TKIs have succeeded imatinib, offering additional therapeutic solutions for a growing number of patients with imatinib-resistant CML. However, these clinical approaches although very effective, generate many unwanted side effects because of their daily administration. Attempts to stop TKI when the disease is no longer detectable at the molecular level, unfortunately result in relapses in more than half of cases. This highlights the presence of undetectable leukemia cells, recognized as leukemic stem cells (LSCs) that are TKI insensitive. It therefore appears necessary to identify new biochemical pathways in LSCs, the targeting of which would make re-sensitization to TKIs possible. The results presented here demonstrate that targeting the protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ) pathway represents a valid alternative for LSC elimination. Abstract Numerous combinations of signaling pathway blockades in association with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment have been proposed for eradicating leukemic stem cells (LSCs) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but none are currently clinically available. Because targeting protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ) was demonstrated to eliminate cancer stem cells (CSCs) in solid tumors, we evaluated the efficacy of PKCδ inhibition in combination with TKIs for CML cells. We observed that inhibition of PKCδ by a pharmacological inhibitor, by gene silencing, or by using K562 CML cells expressing dominant-negative (DN) or constitutively active (CA) PKCδ isoforms clearly points to PKCδ as a regulator of the expression of the stemness regulator BMI1. As a consequence, inhibition of PKCδ impaired clonogenicity and cell proliferation for leukemic cells. PKCδ targeting in K562 and LAMA-84 CML cell lines clearly enhanced the apoptotic response triggered by any TKI. A strong synergism was observed for apoptosis induction through an increase in caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation and significantly decreased expression of the Bcl-xL Bcl-2 family member. Inhibition of PKCδ did not modify BCR-ABL phosphorylation but acted downstream of the oncogene by downregulating BMI1 expression, decreasing clonogenicity. PKCδ inhibition interfered with the clonogenicity of primary CML CD34+ and BCR-ABL-transduced healthy CD34+ cells as efficiently as any TKI while it did not affect differentiation of healthy CD34+ cells. LTC-IC experiments pinpointed that PKCδ inhibition strongly decreased the progenitors/LSCs frequency. All together, these results demonstrate that targeting of PKCδ in combination with a conventional TKI could be a new therapeutic opportunity to affect for CML cells.

Abstract
AIMS Despite their overall favourable safety profile, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are related to severe adverse events including haematological toxicities such as anaemia, leucopenia, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. We designed a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials to compare safety among TKIs (bosutinib, dasatinib, imatinib, nilotinib, ponatinib and radotinib) used by patients diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukaemia. METHODS We obtained data from the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and SciELO databases. The Bayesian approach was used for direct and indirect comparisons, and the treatments were ranked by the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA). RESULTS Seventeen studies were included in the network meta-analysis. Our data show that dasatinib was generally considered worse than the other TKIs, with SUCRA values for 140 mg dasatinib of 90.3% for anaemia, 87.4% for leucopenia, 90.6% for neutropenia and 97.2% for thrombocytopenia. In addition, nilotinib was shown to be safer, with SUCRA values for 600 and 800 mg doses of 21.9 and 35.8% for anaemia, 23.8 and 14.6% for leucopenia, 33.0 and 17.7% for neutropenia, and 28.7 and 32.6% for thrombocytopenia, respectively. CONCLUSION Dasatinib appeared as the least safe drug for chronic myeloid leukaemia, probably because it binds to multiple key kinase targets, being more prone to cause serious haematological adverse events. Nilotinib demonstrated a safer profile, mostly due to its selective binding capacity.

Abstract
Platelets can contribute to tumor progression and metastasis. Cancer patients are at increased risk of thrombosis, and advanced stages of cancer are associated with thrombocytosis or increased platelet reactivity. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are widely used as a targeted strategy for cancer treatment, with the aim of prolonging progression-free survival of the patients. Because of their broad kinase target spectrum, most TKIs inevitably have off-target effects. Platelets rely on tyrosine kinase activity for their activation. Frequently observed side effects are lowering of platelet count and inhibition of platelet functions, whether or not accompanied by an increased bleeding risk. In this review, we aim to give insights into: (i) 38 TKIs that are currently used for the treatment of different types of cancer, either on the market or in clinical trials; (ii) how distinct TKIs can inhibit activation mechanisms in platelets; and (iii) the clinical consequences of the antiplatelet effects of TKI treatment. For several TKIs, the knowledge on affinity for their targets does not align with the published effects on platelets and reported bleeding events. This review should raise awareness of the potential antiplatelet effects of several TKIs, which will be enhanced in the presence of antithrombotic drugs.

Abstract
Failure to comply with treatment recommendations is very common in patients, but still poorly recognised by doctors. The current practice of using oral therapy on a large scale has been increasingly adopted for cancer patients. Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is just such an example, where the introduction of taking new oral medications, the tyrosine kinase BCR-ABL inhibitors (TKI), has now revolutionised the treatment. The aim of our study was to assess treatment adherence in a group of Polish CML patients (a survey was conducted on 140 patient aged ≥18 years) treated with oral TKI (imatinib, dasatinib and nilotinib) taking into account the following variables: gender, age, education, place of residence, family circumstances and duration of therapy. In addition, we evaluated whether there is a relationship between how patients perceive their level of adherence to treatment recommendations with how subjectively the required dosage regimen was followed. Half the patients admitted to skipping at least one drug dose during the entire course of treatment and 39% did so within their last treatment month. Patients were also found to overestimate their own adherence assessment; around 60% of those missing at least 1 drug dose within the last treatment month believed they 'always' followed recommendations. The study demonstrated that adherence deteriorates over time. Furthermore, patients aged >65 years and patients suffering at least one comorbid disease had better adherence (p < 0.011). There were no differences in adherence among patients treated with imatinib, dasatinib and nilotinib (p = 0.249).

Abstract
We previously showed that MNRR1 (Mitochondrial Nuclear Retrograde Regulator 1, also CHCHD2) functions in two subcellular compartments, displaying a different function in each. In the mitochondria it is a stress regulator of respiration that binds to cytochrome c oxidase (COX) whereas in the nucleus it is a transactivator of COX4I2 and other hypoxia-stimulated genes. We now show that binding of MNRR1 to COX is promoted by phosphorylation at tyrosine-99 and that this interaction stimulates respiration. We show that phosphorylation of MNRR1 takes place in mitochondria and is mediated by Abl2 kinase (ARG). A family with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A with an exaggerated phenotype harbors a Q112H mutation in MNRR1, located in a domain that is necessary for transcriptional activation by MNRR1. Furthermore, the mutation causes the protein to function suboptimally in the mitochondria in response to cellular stress. The Q112H mutation hinders the ability of the protein to interact with Abl kinase, leading to defective tyrosine phosphorylation and a resultant defect in respiration.

Abstract
Imatinib has represented a revolution in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), inducing an overall survival never seen with previous therapies. However, with the commonly used dosage of 400 mg, one third of the treated patients does not reach the criteria associated with an optimal outcome and could potentially benefit from a different treatment strategy. Several trials exploring modified imatinib-based treatments or second-generation tyrosine-kinase as front-line therapy have been performed. In some studies, high-dose (800 mg per day) or dose-adapted imatinib or imatinib plus interferon was reported to be able to induce better cytogenetic and molecular responses compared with standard-dose imatinib, although no improvements in progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) have been so far reported. At the moment, these approaches are still considered investigational. On the other side, on the basis of their capacity to induce very fast and deep molecular responses, including major molecular responses (MMRs) and the newly defined very deep molecular responses MR4 and MR4.5, and to prevent at least part of the early progressions to AP/BC that still occur during the first 2–3 years from diagnosis, dasatinib and nilotinib have been approved and registered by FDA and EMA as the first-line therapy for CML patients, opening the possibility to use different therapeutic strategies for newly diagnosed CML patients and a consequent intense debate among hematologists.

Abstract
Recombinant immunotoxins (RIT) are agents being developed for cancer treatment. They are composed of an Fv that binds to a cancer cell, fused to a 38-kDa fragment of Pseudomonas exotoxin A. SS1P is a RIT that targets mesothelin, a protein expressed on mesothelioma as well as pancreatic, ovarian, lung, and other cancers. Because the protein tyrosine kinase family regulates a variety of cellular processes and pathways, we hypothesized that tyrosine kinases might regulate susceptibility to immunotoxin killing. To investigate their role, we used siRNAs to lower the level of expression of the 88 known tyrosine kinases. We identified five tyrosine kinases, INSR, HCK, SRC, PDGFRβ, and BMX that enhance the activity of SS1P when their level of expression is lowered by siRNAs. We further investigated the Src family member HCK in this study. Knocking down of SRC slightly increased SS1P killing in A431/H9 cells, but knocking down HCK substantially enhanced killing by SS1P. We investigated the mechanism of enhancement and found that HCK knockdown enhanced SS1P cleavage by furin and lowered levels of Mcl-1 and raised Bax. We then found that Src inhibitors mimic the stimulatory effect of HCK knockdown; both SU6656 and SKI-606 (bosutinib) enhanced immunotoxin killing of mesothelin-expressing cells by SS1P and CD22-expressing cells by HA22 (moxetumomab pasudotox). SU6656 also enhanced the antitumor effects of SS1P and HA22 in mouse xenograft tumor models. Our data suggest that the combination of immunotoxin with tyrosine kinase inhibitors may be an effective way to treat some cancers.

Abstract
Tumour invasion and metastasis have been recognized as major causal factors in the morbidity and mortality among cancer patients. Many advances in the knowledge of cancer metastasis have yielded an impressive array of attractive drug targets, including enzymes, receptors and multiple signalling pathways. The present review summarizes the molecular pathogenesis of metastasis and the identification of novel molecular targets used in the discovery of antimetastatic agents. Several promising targets have been highlighted, including receptor tyrosine kinases, effector molecules involved in angiogenesis, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), urokinase plasminogen activator, adhesion molecules and their receptors, signalling pathways (e.g. phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, phospholipase Cγ1, mitogen-activated protein kinases, c-Src kinase, c-Met kinases and heat shock protein. The discovery and development of potential novel therapeutics for each of the targets are also discussed in this review. Among these, the most promising agents that have shown remarkable clinical outcome are anti-angiogenic agents (e.g. bevacizumab). Newer agents, such as c-Met kinase inhibitors, are still undergoing preclinical studies and are yet to have their clinical efficacy proven. Some therapeutics, such as first-generation MMP inhibitors (MMPIs; e.g. marimastat) and more selective versions of them (e.g. prinomastat, tanomastat), have undergone clinical trials. Unfortunately, these drugs produced serious adverse effects that led to the premature termination of their development. In the future, third-generation MMPIs and inhibitors of signalling pathways and adhesion molecules could form valuable novel classes of drugs in the anticancer armamentarium to combat metastasis.

Abstract
In drug discovery, the characterisation of the precise modes of action (MoA) and of unwanted off-target effects of novel molecularly targeted compounds is of highest relevance. Recent approaches for identification of MoA have employed various techniques for modeling of well defined signaling pathways including structural information, changes in phenotypic behavior of cells and gene expression patterns after drug treatment. However, efficient approaches focusing on proteome wide data for the identification of MoA including interference with mutations are underrepresented. As mutations are key drivers of drug resistance in molecularly targeted tumor therapies, efficient analysis and modeling of downstream effects of mutations on drug MoA is a key to efficient development of improved targeted anti-cancer drugs. Here we present a combination of a global proteome analysis, reengineering of network models and integration of apoptosis data used to infer the mode-of-action of various tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell lines expressing wild type as well as TKI resistance conferring mutants of BCR-ABL. The inferred network models provide a tool to predict the main MoA of drugs as well as to grouping of drugs with known similar kinase inhibitory activity patterns in comparison to drugs with an additional MoA. We believe that our direct network reconstruction approach, demonstrated on proteomics data, can provide a complementary method to the established network reconstruction approaches for the preclinical modeling of the MoA of various types of targeted drugs in cancer treatment. Hence it may contribute to the more precise prediction of clinically relevant on- and off-target effects of TKIs.

Abstract
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) include Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and the Ph- diseases primary myelofibrosis (PMF), polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET). Since FDA approval of imatinib in 2001, CML treatment has been focused on tyrosine kinase inhibitors. With these targeted therapies, imatinib-resistant CML has emerged as a major problem. Second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have allowed for effective treatment of some patients with imatinib resistance, but bcr-abl mutants such as T315I remain problematic. Additional agents are in development and are discussed here. New clinical issues with TKI treatment include premature termination of therapy due to adverse-effects, the cost of therapy, and the apparently indefinite duration of treatment in patients who have achieved complete molecular response (CMR). In contrast to Ph+ CML, targeted therapy for Ph- MPNs is novel and of less clear therapeutic potential. New insights into Ph- MPNs include alterations in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, particularly as mediated by the JAK2 V617F mutation. The recent development of multiple JAK2 inhibitors has provided hope for the rational and effective management of these disorders. Recently, ruxolitinib was approved as therapy for PMF. Current data suggests, however, that given its vital cell signaling function, the therapeutic benefit of targeting Jak kinases in general, or JAK2 specifically may be less than that derived from ABL-directed TKI treatment of CML. This review focuses on the current treatment options for CML and Philadelphia chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) and limitations faced in current clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and are now widely accepted as the initial therapy of choice in this disease, supplanting interferon and allogeneic stem cell transplantation. There are currently three drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for front-line treatment of CML: imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib. A fourth drug, bosutinib, may also win FDA approval in 2011. The goal of this review is to summarize the most recent information on initial treatment of CML and to aid clinicians in managing newly diagnosed CML patients. RECENT FINDINGS Phase III studies comparing imatinib with nilotinib or dasatinib in newly diagnosed CML were published in June 2010, leading to accelerated FDA approval for both of these 'second-generation' TKIs for initial therapy of CML. There are significant differences between the agents in terms of frequency and rate of responses, progression-free survival, and side-effects. However, the follow-up period on these trials is short, and there are as yet no significant differences in overall survival. Guidelines for monitoring CML patients on TKI therapy have been recently revised. SUMMARY Management of newly diagnosed CML patients in the coming decade will begin to resemble antibiotic treatment of infection, with therapy individualized based on patient risk factors, co-morbidities, and tolerability. In addition, the cost of therapy will emerge as an important consideration as generic imatinib becomes available in 2015. In this context, clinical trials to guide decision-making in newly diagnosed CML patients are needed.
