I will be interested to hear.

My recollection was that pona was not only active across the blood/brain barrier, but was actually present at greater concentrations than in the body generally.

Both of the patients in that article had been on pona prior to the FDA halt and then switched to dasatinib. It was during their dasatinib treatment that the CNS problems occurred.

This appears to be a clear win for pona over dasatinib, esp given the growing understanding that dasatinib and nilotinib both appear to have worse risk profiles than were generally assumed prior to pona's blow-up.
