2015, Leukemia ResearchCitation Excerpt :Overall in 12 newborns (9.6%) foetal abnormalities were identified; 8 live births, 1 stillbirth and 3 terminations. Cole and colleagues reported the largest review of the English language literature on women who became pregnant while taking TKI treatment [27]. They identified a total of 217 reported pregnancy events and of these, 171 carried their pregnancy to term, 24 had spontaneous abortions, but in 62 cases the outcome of pregnancy was unknown.
How I treat leukemia during pregnancy
2014, BloodCitation Excerpt :A number of distinctive congenital abnormalities have been described after exposure to imatinib in early pregnancy, including skeletal malformations (premature closure of skull sutures, craniosynostosis, absent hemivertebrae, shoulder anomaly, and scoliosis), renal (duplex kidney, renal agenesis), respiratory (hypoplastic lungs), and gastrointestinal (exomphalos, omphalocele) abnormalities (Table 466,70TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT-79).70 TTT-72 In particular, the incidence of exomphalos in these cases is roughly 100-fold greater than expected and a cause for significant concern. In animal studies, imatinib was found to be teratogenic in mice but not in rabbits and these abnormalities are postulated to be as a result of PDGFRA inhibition.80
Pregnancies in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor
2013, Leukemia ResearchCitation Excerpt :The patient received imatinib one week after successful delivery. There have been several reports of successful treatment of CML during pregnancy with leukapheresis, as it allows the patients to avoid the undesirable fetal exposure to drugs with potential teratogenic effects and has been suggested to be proper options [18,19]. In some instances, for those pregnant patients with a more stable chronic phase, an approach of no intervention could be considered with very close monitoring of the patients and the baby.
