Summary

This study will evaluate a gene expression signature (Growth Factor Signature \[GFS\]) as a biomarker for response/resistance to BRC-ABL oncogene inhibitors.

Conditions

  • Blast Phase Philadelphia Chromosomes Positive (Ph+) Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)
  • Philadelphia Chromosome Positive (Ph+) Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL)

Interventions

OTHER

Comparator: Biomarker evaluation

Patients on standard of care treatment will have blood drawn to evaluate biomarker changes in response to treatment with BCR-ABL inhibitors over a \~3.5 month period. Part I will enroll patients who are beginning treatment with imatinib (recommended dose 400 mg every day \[qd\]), dasatinib (recommended dose 70 mg twice a day \[bid\]), or nilotinib (recommended dose 400 mg bid). Part II will enroll patients who are changing from imatinib therapy to either dasatinib or nilotinib. A decision to initiate Part II will be made based on analysis of the results of Part I.
