More than 90% of patients diagnosed with  Chronic Myeloid  Leukemia bear a Philadelphia chromosome t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2), which is a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 22 (BCR locus) and chromosome 9 (ABL1 locus (1,  also see '''[http://www.omim.org/entry/613065 OMIM]''').  The Drug  Imatinib mesylate, also known as Gleevec, was the one of the first molecularly developed drugs, and has a remarkably high success rate in treatment of patients with Chronic Myeloid  Leukemia (5)
