14. PC, diagnosed with Ph+ ALL in
September 2007 at the age of 89.
Treated with Imatinib alone (partly
at homeā¦). Obtained a CHR,
MRD-, and turned 90...
Drived a car and occasionally
helped in the family garageā¦
Relapse in June 2009. IInd CR with
Dasatinib. Relapse in February
2010, responded to VCR.
Died in March of heart failure, at
91, 2Ā½ years from diagnosis.
