Abbreviations: cont.=continuous; IFNα=interferon-α, SRD=self-renewal deficit; Supp.=Supplementary; TKI=tyrosine kinase inhibitor. w/o (or with) SRD refers to the simulation scenarios in which the additional IFNα-mediated SRD of normal and leukaemic cells was taken into account (or not, respectively). Symbols in parentheses indicate whether the simulation scenarios predict beneficial or neutral treatment effects (+), therapy failure (−), or scenarios in which temporary, high values of BCR–ABL/ABL ratios have to be expected (!).
