摘要：
The invention provides a method for the treatment of Ph+ leukemia in a patient comprising administering to the patient (i) a BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and (ii) an agent which selectively binds to a cell surface receptor expressed on Ph+ leukemic stem cells. The invention further provides for the use of (i) and (ii) in, or in the manufacture of a medicament for, the treatment of Ph+ leukemia in a patient； and a composition for the treatment of Ph+ leukemia in a patient comprising (i) and (ii)； and kits comprising (i) and (ii). In some embodiments, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor is or is not imatinib； or is selected from the group consisting of dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib, axitinib, cediranib, crizotinib, damnacanthal, gefitinib, lapatinib, lestaurtinib, neratinib, semaxanib, sunitinib, toceranib, tyrphostins, vandetanib, vatalanib, INNO-406, AP24534, XL228, PHA-739358, MK-0457, SGX393 and DC2036； or is selected from the group consisting of dasatinib and nilotinib. In some embodiments, the agent binds to a receptor involved in signalling by at least one of IL-3, G-CSF and GM-CSF. In some embodiments, the agent is a mutein selected from the group consisting of IL-3 muteins, G-CSF muteins and GM-CSF muteins. In some embodiments, the mutein is an IL-3 mutein. In some embodiments, the agent is a soluble receptor which is capable of binding to IL-3.
