Brief Summary: Primary Objective

1 To assess the safety and toxicity of imatinib mesylate when given to patients with Ph CML ALL or AML within the first 100 days following allogeneic bone marrow or stem cell transplantation

Secondary Objectives

1 To identify any clinically significant drug interactions with imatinib in the post-transplant setting
2 To develop specific monitoring parameters for imatinib use when utilized in the early post-BMT setting
3 To record one-year survival data in this patient cohort to assess any effect of early imatinib administration on this endpoint
Detailed Description: Imatinib mesylate is an FDA-approved commercially available drug for patients with acute or chronic leukemias carrying the Philadelphia chromosome Women who are able to have children must have a negative blood pregnancy test before taking this drug

No earlier than three weeks after the bone marrow or stem cell transplant you will start taking imatinib mesylate by mouth You will take it once or twice a day until roughly 100 days following the transplant or until you are released from the Houston area by your M D Anderson physician Imatinib mesylate should be taken with a meal and a glass of water preferably in the morning

The dose will be gradually increased as long as you dont experience severe side effects If severe side effects occur imatinib will be stopped either temporarily or permanently

After about 100 days or after leaving Houston the medication may be continued at the discretion of the study doctor but the study will be considered completed

This is an investigational study A total of up to 40 patients will take part in this study All will be enrolled at M D Anderson The study is partially funded by the manufacturer of imatinib mesylate see below although the drug is not provided free of charge
