Imatinib dose escalation in two patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, with low trough imatinib plasma levels measured at various intervals from the beginning of therapy and with suboptimal treatment response, leads to the achievement of higher plas

Original language description

Despite the prognostic value of trough imatinib plasma levels (IPL) identified in some studies, no recommendations for the use of IPL results in routine management of CML patients have been issued. We report two patients in whom daily imatinib dose was increased from 400 to 600 or 800 mg because of low IPL found at various intervals from the beginning of treatment (7 measurements; mean IPL values = 616.33 and 764.5 ng/mL, respectively). Both patients achieved suboptimal response according to the European LeukemiaNet criteria (complete cytogenetic response was not achieved after 1 year of treatment in patient 1 and major molecular response after 47 months of standard-dose imatinib therapy in patient 2). In addition, we have demonstrated low hOCT-1 expression at diagnosis in both patients, retrospectively.
