Interpretation of PCR Analysis

[Guest guest]

I haven't seen my doctor yet, but did get a copy of my latest PCR Analysis.

Wondered if someone could confirm the analysis for me. I'm anxious to know

if the Gleevec is working. I've been on 400mg since diagnosed July 06.

Results: Positive Major breakpoint (0.006%)

Interpretation=this result is consistent with minimal residual disease

BCR_ABL transcript

Major a13a2=.006%

Major e14a2=not detected

Major combined=.006%

Minor e1a2=not detected

Thanks
