Imatinib Mesylate is a specific inhibitor of a number of tyrosine kinase enzymes. It occupies the TK active site, leading to a decrease in activity.In this condition the white blood cells start growing out of control so Imatinib is used to inhibit the growth of these cells. Hence cures leukaemia.

Fast Fact
As Imatinib Mesylate is a selective chemotherapeutic agent, its tolerability profile is better than previous cytotoxic agents. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are acceptable for a potentially fatal disease.
Tyrosine kinases present attractive drug targets for specific types of cancers. Gleevec, a well-known therapeutic agent against chronic myelogenous leukemia, is an effective inhibitor of Abl tyrosine kinase. However, Gleevec fails to inhibit closely homologous tyrosine kinases, such as c-Src.
Imatinib is a cytotoxic drug which works by inhibiting the growth of abnormal cells in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. In this condition, the white blood cells start growing out of control so Imatinib is used to inhibit the growth of these cells.
