More than 90% of patients diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia bear a Philadelphia chromosome resulting from t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2), which is a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 22 (''BCR'' locus) and chromosome 9 (''ABL1'' locus) (see '''[http://www.omim.org/entry/613065 OMIM]''') [1].  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 by targeting the BCR/ABL1 fusion product [5].
