One patient showed a typical blood picture for CML transformation, with leukocytosis, neutrophilic left shift with increased blasts, and basophilia. |
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. |
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. |
During the last decade, the introduction of TKI to the treatment regimen of CML has significantly affected the survival of patients. |
