The conformational control inhibitor of tyrosine kinases DCC-2036 is effective for imatinib-resistant cells expressing T674I FIP1L1-PDGFRα.

The cells expressing the T674I point mutant of FIP1-like-1-platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (FIP1L1-PDGFRα) in hypereosinophilics syndrome (HES) are resistant to imatinib and some second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). There is a desperate need to develop therapy to combat...
