简要总结
RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of imatinib mesylate and how well it works in treating patients with myelofibrosis.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Determine the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of imatinib mesylate in patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia.
- Determine the 3-, 6-, and 12-month major and minor erythroid response rates in patients treated with this drug.
Secondary
- Determine reduction in marrow fibrosis in patients treated with this drug.
- Determine decrease in spleen size in patients treated with this drug.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants With Major and/or Minor Erythroid Responses at 3, 6, and 12 Months of Therapy
时间窗: At 3,6, and 12 months of therapy
A major response = transfusion independent or a\>2.0g/dl rise in hemoglobin without transfusion maintained for at least 8 weeks. Minor response= \> 1 to 2.0g/dl incremental rise in hemoglobin maintained for at lease 8 weeks with a decrease in transfusion requirements of at least 50% compared to the mean transfusion requirement during the 8 week pre-study period.
次要结局
- Reduction in Marrow Fibrosis and Decrease in Spleen Size(After 6 and 12 months of therapy)
