摘要:
The present invention relates to a method tor evaluating patterns to help-optimizing the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in a human patient population. Specifically, present invention relates to SHP1 and/or SHP2 as a biomarker for CML patients.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of treating Philadelphia-positive leukemia (Ph+ leukemia), in a particular chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), in a human patient population. More specifically, the present invention pertains to a method of treating Ph+ leukemia, such as CML or Phi+ ALL, in a human patient suffering from Ph+ leukemia comprising the steps of (a) administering a predetermined fixed amount of Imatinib as a free base or in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to the human patient, (b) collecting at least one blood sample from the patient, e.g. within the first 12 months of treatment, (c) determining the plasma trough level (Cmin) of Imatinib, (d) determining the OCT-1 Activity in the blood sample, and (e) adjusting the dose of Imatinib applied to the individual patient in a manner that an Imatinib Cmin value is achieved in the patient of at least 800 ng/mL, if in step (c) an Imatinib Cmin value of less than 800 ng/mL is found and in step (d) an OCT-1 Activity is found below 6.0 to 10.0 ng/200,000 cells.

This invention relates generally to the modulation of expression levels of bone sialoprotein (BSP) in tumors, especially a non-small cell lung cancer tumor, as an indicator of progression to bone metastasis.
摘要:
Chronic HIV infection is treated by administering to a subject an organic thiophosphate alone or in combination with another anti-HIV or anti-AIDS drug. The organic thiophosphate is preferably WR 151327, a compound with antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities, or a functional derivative or analogue thereof. WR 151327 suppresses induction of HIV expression in chronically infected cells mediated by cytokines such as TNF.alpha. and GM-CSF. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one organic thiophosphate in combination with one or more anti-HIV or anti-AIDS drugs are also disclosed.
