Description
A preclinical study tested the effects of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) on Ba/F3 cell lines with representative primary imatinib-sensitizing mutation del 557-558, which induced IL-3 independent growth, and secondary mutation T670I. The cells were tested for Imatinib resistance. Ba/F3 cells with del 557-558/T670I mutations (IC50 = >10000 nM) showed resistance towards Imatinib compared to Ba/F3 cells with del 557-558 alone (IC50 = 27 +- 8 nM). Similarly, patient-derived GIST-T1/670 cells with 560-578 deletion/T670I mutations (IC50 > 5000 nM) did show resistance towards Imatinib compared to GIST-T1 cells with 560-578 deletion (IC50 = 30 nM). Del 557-558/T670I cells were implanted into mice and treated with Imatinib. Imatinib was not effective in treating the del 557-558/T670I cells in mice as tumor volume progressively increased. In addition, Ba/F3 cells were mutagenized with N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea and incubated with varying concentrations of Imatinib. In Imatinib incubated cells, T670I mutations were seen in approximately 80% of the resistant cell populations.
