Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to a nanoparticulate compositions of imatinib mesylate, or a salt or derivative thereof, having improved pharmacokinetic profiles and reduced fed/fasted variability. The nanoparticulate imatinib mesylate particles of the composition have an effective average particle size of less than about 2000 nm and are useful in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia, gastrointestinal stromal tumors and related diseases.
