2 Figure 1 Improvement in skin tightness after imatinib therapy. (A) Baseline. (B) After 6 months of treatment, there is increased pigmentation but marked reduction in rippled appearance of the skin (dose, 200 mg daily). (C) End of active treatment (9 months), there is persistent pigmentation but overall marked improvement in ROM. (D) One year after ending active treatment, patient continues to have increased softening of skin fibrosis and reduction in hyperpigmentation (partial response, patient 7).

4 Figure 3 Pharmacokinetics of imatinib treatment in patients with ScGVHD. Data for steady state serum levels in 8 patients receiving imatinib treatment in cohort 2. Levels are superimposed on 100-mg and 200-mg daily dose population controls, shown in black and red, respectively. Patients with ScGVHD show much higher than expected levels at the 200-mg dosing level. One patient had no detectable levels at either time point (not shown).
