Categories:

Hellow, I am Dr Mahamud from Bangladesh.
My 21year old younger brother is sufferi g from CML from 2009. He is facing following problem regarding his treatment.

1)Imatinib(Gleevec) was discontinued due to resistance and point mutation...

2)Dasanitib causing severe pulmonary hypertension and also discontinued....

3)Nilotinib(Tasigna) and Bosutinib can't afford due to high price.......

Now what shoud I do for my brother.... Any suggestion please....

You could contact the Max Foundation and ask if your brother qualifies for assistance/advice with access to nilotinib or bosutinib.
