Core Tip To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of acute myeloid leukemia with KMT2A gene rearrangements in a patient with a gastrointestinal stromal tumor receiving imatinib mesylate (IM) treatment. Although there is no known mechanism by which IM causes acute leukemia, there have been reports supporting the speculation that IM may have a direct mutagenic effect on normal hematopoietic precursors. Physicians should consider the potential risks of developing hematologic malignancies, including therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia, in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors receiving IM treatment.
