PHASE2

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving imatinib mesylate after a donor stem cell transplant may prevent the rec...

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: Primary * Determine the safety of adjuvant imatinib mesylate after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) in patients with high-risk Philadelphia chromosome-positive ...
