Abstract 14372: Case Series: Non-Lipid Plaque Formation as the Mechanism for Ponatinib-Induced Vascular Toxicity Using Operator-Assisted Virtual Histology Optical Coherence Tomography
Abstract:Introduction:
The third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor ponatinib approved for treating chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) rendered drug resistant with a threonine-315-isoleucine (T315I) mutation is associated with increased incidence of vascular adverse events (VAEs). This case series sought to elucidate the mechanism of these VAEs.
Methods:
Two patients with CML and two patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphocytic leukemia (Ph+ AL… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
