Hello everyone. I have not had time to contribute for awhile. But I must let you all know the results of my husband's PCR at his last visit to Dr Talpaz. He was taken off Sprycel due to pleural effusion and we were hoping his undetectable would hold....but it did not. He was subsequently put on bosulif and not showing much improvement after 3 months. So his dosage was changed from 100 mg to 200 mg. And now, after 3 more months, his PCR went from 8.7 to 0.127!! Hopefully in another 3 months he will once again reach undetectable.
The downside of his test results is that the liver function tests have increased a lot. The doctor will not really say that bosulif is to blame, but nothing else has changed. Has anyone of you CML warriors had any problems with the liver while on TKI's? Was there any treatment to help the liver? God bless you all.
