Primary imatinib resistance was defined as no complete hematologic response at or after 3 months of therapy; as no minimal cytogenic response at or after 6 months; or as no major cytogenic response at or after 12 months.
Secondary imatinib resistance was defined as loss of complete hematologic response, loss of minimal cytogenic response, loss of major cytogenic response, or development of clonal evolution.
