ملخص البحث

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved the prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) by inhibiting the BCR-ABL kinase. There are concerns regarding the effect of TKI on hemostasis by inhibiting platelet aggregation; the possible reason for this is yet unclear.

Objectives

To study platelet aggregation response to different agonists [(adenosine diphosphate (ADP), collagen, and arachidonic acid (AA)] using platelet aggregometry in 75 CML-chronic phase (CML-CP) patients on TKI therapy, in complete hematologic response (CHR).
