During the last decade, the introduction of TKI to the treatment regimen of CML has significantly affected the survival of patients. |

One patient showed a typical blood picture for CML transformation, with leukocytosis, neutrophilic left shift with increased blasts, and basophilia. |
|
Most people with CML have an abnormal chromosome, known as the Philadelphia chromosome, in which segments of chromosomes 9 and 22 are fused. |
|
Gleevec controls blood counts in most CML patients but fewer than 10 percent are PCR-negative. |
|
The Bank reported an encouraging start to the PS80bn initiative, with 30 groups signed up, but the CML warned it would take time to filter through to lending. |
|
In view of Philadelphia chromosome positivity and the patient's age, it might be suspected that the patient had CML presenting in blast crisis. |
|
Chronic patients with CML experience skyrocketing white blood cell counts but generally exhibit no symptoms for three to five years. |
|
The brans significantly decreased levels of CML compared to the control. |
|
The meeting, the first in a series this year, was attended by CML patients from all over the country in order to offer the support needed to overcome their condition. |
|
The CML has previously predicted that activity would pick up this year, boosted by Government efforts to unblock the housing market such as its Funding for Lending scheme. |
|
Market activity is set to increase further next year, with around 950,000 sales taking place and PS156bn worth of mortgages advanced, the CML predicted. |
|
The most predominant feature of CML is severe leukocytosis with the entire spectrum of myeloid cell development appearing in the peripheral blood. |
|
The CML chronic phase classically presents with neutrophilic leukocytosis with an increased percentage of myelocytes, metamyelocytes, bands, and segmented neutrophils. |
|
This seemed to outgun STI-571, causing a CML recurrence, Sawyers says. |
