Molecular responses in patients with imatinib-resistant and imatinib-intolerant CML treated with nilotinib. The molecular response was evaluated according to the international scale of standardized quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction at the beginning of the study and every 3Â months thereafter. The X-axis shows the time-point and patient number for molecular response evaluation. The Y-axis shows the percentage of patients who achieved a molecular response.
