*

Includes previous tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies. Percentages may not total 100% because of rounding.

Patients simultaneously meeting the protocol definitions for imatinib resistance and imatinib intolerance are categorized as having imatinib resistance.

The reason for stopping imatinib was not reported.
