Chronic myeloid leukemia: the paradigm of targeting oncogenic tyrosine kinase signaling and counteracting resistance for successful cancer therapy

Abstract: Deregulated activity of BCR-ABL1, a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the fusion gene resulting from the t(9;22)(q34;q11) chromosomal translocation, is thought to be the driver event responsible for initiation and maintenance of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). BCR-ABL1 was one of the first tyrosine kinases to be implicated in a human malignancy and the first to be successfully targeted. Imatinib mesylate, the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) to be approved for therapeutic use, was hailed as a magic b… Show more

“…Imatinib was approved for clinical treatment of CML but the problem of drug resistance encouraged the development of new TKI generations (440). Various ncRNAs have been associated with imatinib in CML, either as enhancers or inhibitors.…”

“…Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by an acquired balanced chromosomal translocation with a constitutively active tyrosine kinase ( BCR‐ABL1 ) (Soverini et al , ). The introduction of imatinib mesylate (IM), the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that specifically targeted BCR‐ABL1 oncoprotein, significantly increased survival and quality of life, particularly for those patients in chronic phase (Druker et al , ).…”

“…The TKI resistance mechanism in tyrosine kinase mutation‐driven tumors has been intensively investigated in human tumors, with examples including imatinib resistance in KIT mutation‐driven gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) (Wang et al, ), imatinib resistance in BCR‐ABL mutation‐driven chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) (Soverini, Mancini, Bavaro, Cavo, & Martinelli, ), and gefitinib/erlotinib resistance in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation‐driven lung cancer (Nagano, Tachihara, & Nishimura, ). One of the major mechanisms underlying acquired resistance to TKIs in these tumors is accumulation of additional mutations (secondary mutations) accompanied by concomitant reactivation of the tyrosine kinase, even in the presence of the TKI (Nagano et al, ; Soverini et al, ; Wang et al, ).…”
