  20. GI stromal tumor or GIST most common histology (also called leiomyosarcoma). Present with bleeding, anemia, abdominal pain. Most common in the stomach (62%), Small intestine (28%), Colon (10%). Metastasize to the peritoneum and liver; later to lung. Refractory to standard systemic chemotherapy. Chemoembolization of liver with cisplatin can be palliative. GI-TRACT SARCOMAS

  21. Cell of origin is the Interstitial cell of Cajal. Constitutively expresses c-Kit c. 90% of GISTs are c-Kit positive. C-Kit is one of the few tyrosine kinases specifically inhibited by Gleevec (STI-571). Preliminary data suggest 50-90% activity An intergroup study started 12/15/00. GIST
