1 A Randomized Multi-Center Open Label Study of BMS-354825 vs Imatinib Mesylate (Gleevec®) 800 mg/d in Subjects With Chronic Phase Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Who Have Disease That is Resistant to Iamtinib at a Dose of 400-600 mg/d

RATIONALE: BMS-354825 and imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying BMS-354825 to see how well it works compared to imatinib mesylate in treating patients with chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia that did not respond to previous imatinib mesylate.

2 Dynamics of ABL Mutations in Imatinib Failed Ph Positive or Bcr-Abl Positive CML CP or AP Patients Who Treated With Nilotinib as Second-line TKI Therapy (AMICAN-Prospective)in Asia

The purposes of this study are to investigate expression and frequency of ABL point mutations, a major cause of resistance in imatinib failed CML Asian patients and to find causes of Asian-specific resistance to cancer-targeting therapies through a prospective investigation of dynamics of point mutations and expression of new point mutations during nilotinib treatment.

3 Phase I Trial Adding Ruxolitinib to a Combination of Dasatinib Plus Dexamethasone in Remission Induction Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Patients Aged 40 Years or Older.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a new combination of three oral drugs in Ph+ ALL. These drugs are dexamethasone, dasatinib, and ruxolitinib. All three drugs have been studied before in humans. This is a phase I study in which ruxolitinib dose will start low for the first patient together with dexamethasone plus dasatinib. If this dose does not cause a bad side effect, the ruxolitinib dose will slowly be made higher as new patients take part in the study. This will help the investigators find the right dose of ruxolitinib to give together with dexamethasone and dasatinib that will be used in future studies
