For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]

- 11/29/2016: FDA granted full approval "for the treatment of adult patients with chronic-phase, accelerated-phase, or blast-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome–positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) for whom no other tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy is indicated; and for the treatment of adult patients with T315I–positive CML (chronic phase, accelerated phase, or blast phase) or T315I-positive, Philadelphia chromosome–positive ALL."
