Guest guest Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Yes, , it certainly appears likely that I've lost my response to Gleevec. I went from CCR to 3% positive FISH then 5% positive and four positive cells on cytogenetics then 7 positive cells on cytogenetics. Undoubtedly, the Gleevec isn't working and I take 800 mg. And the increase in phillies is happening quickly. L Re: [ ] BMS Trial Setback , I am a little confused.Are you saying that your fish test was negative and than became positive. What is your Gleevec dosage? Do you thing may be you have build a resistance to Gleevec? With our disease we always are good as our results are. It is helpful to be patient and have our hopes up for better results. I have been in CCR since July 2003.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 God Bless you Suzanne. It sounds like one of the normal problem happening with Gleevec.How about drug combination, did your doctor consider it. I don't know what could help you in this situation but I found out avoiding stress have helped me a lot. Good luck and keep us posted with your news.
