| 摘要 |
Methods are provided for treating diseases associated with abnormal activity of kinases such as chronic myelogenous leukemia. The method comprises: administering a DNA methylation inhibitor to the patient in therapeutically effective amount; and administering a kinase inhibitor such as imatinib mesylate to the patient in therapeutically effective amount, such that the in vivo activity of the kinase is reduced relative to that prior to the treatment. The method can be used to treat cancer associated with abnormal activity of kinases such as phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (P13K), protein kinases including serine/threonine kinases such as Raf kinases, protein kinase kinases such as MEK, and tyrosine kinases such as those in the epidermal growth factor receptor family (EGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor family (PDGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) family, nerve growth factor receptor family (NGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor family (FGFR) insulin receptor family, ephrin receptor family, Met family, Ror family, c-kit family, Src family, Fes family, JAK family, Fak family, Btk family, Syk/ZAP-70 family, and Abl family. |
