Subject: [CML] Early PCRU
My daughter, age 10, was diagnosed with CML in June of this year. She has been on Gleevec (400 mg). She reached CCR in September and her latest PCR showed that she had reached PCRU. Words can never adequately describe my joy and I will forever be grateful to God.
Her oncologist, however, feels that it is unlikely that someone could reach PCRU this quickly. Does anyone out there have experience with this? My thought is that since she is taking a very high dose of Gleevec (she only weighs 60 lbs), the drug might have been able to induce a deeper and more rapid molecular response than is seen in the typical CML patient. She was diagnosed very early, with no enlarged spleen, no blasts in her blood and a WBC of 30,000.
I would appreciate some advice from all of you CML experts!
