Inhibition of this kinase activity by STI571 (Glivec) resulted in 96% of hematological remission and 68% cytogenetic remission in newly diagnosed CML. Molecular remission is possible in a few patients. Quantification of t(9;22) carrying cells can be achieved by real-time quantitative RT-PCR (RQ-PCR) assay that is highly sensitive for evaluating treatment response and minimal residual disease (MRD). We had successfully developed one-step RQ-RT-PCR method that integrated RT and PCR reaction in single tube. The assay can detect one abnormal CML cells among 10 5 normal cells (5-log sensitivity). Amplification of GAPDH control gene was done in separate reaction. Since each PCR reaction has its own kinetics, separate PCR assay for target and control genes can potentially result in inaccurate quantification. Multiplex PCR can further minimize the laboratory procedure and increase the assay accuracy. Whether multiplex RQ-RT-PCR can be applied in detecting MRD in CML has not yet been reported in the literature. Between June 2001 and October 2004, a total of 102 CML patients had been treated with Imatinib in NTUH, including 49 patients in chronic phase (CP), 30 patients in accelerated phase (AP), and 23 patients in blastic phase (BC). Fifty-two were male and 50 female and the median age was 40 years old (ranges 3-80). The median interval from diagnosis to Imatinib treatment was 16 months (0-120) and median Imatinib duration 19.4 months (1-45). Since July 2004, most patients received Imatinib as first-line drug in early chronic phase. Results: the complete hematological rate (CHR) was 98% in CP, 70% in AP and 35% in BC patients (p < 0.001). Major cytogenetic remission (MCyR) was achieved in 70% of CP, 58% in AP and 75% in BC patients (p=0.08). However, only a few patients could achieved molecular remission as defined as MRD < -3.0log reduction: 19% in CP, 11% in AP and 17% in BC. (p=0.341). The probability of leukemic progression-free survival (PFS) at 3 years was 93% for CP, 51% for AP and 4% for BC (p<0.001). PFS was also correlated with cytogenetic response and molecular response. For patients treated in CP or AP stagesand had achieved MRD < -2.0log reduction, none had leukemic progression. Cytogenetic or molecular remission in BC stage didn ’t prevent disease relapse and progression. Sequencing analysis showed that most of them had acquired mutation at BCR-ABL kinase domain. In conclusion, Imatinib was highly effective in CML-CP. For advanced stages, higher doses of imatinib or combination with other drugs are needed to improve response and prevent leukemic progression to improve survival. Sequential monitoring of cytogenetic and molecular analysis is helpful in clinical decision-making.
