How do you approach non-surgical patients with GIST who are intolerant to imatinib 400 mg daily and unlikely to tolerate other TKIs?

Great question! I usually try splitting it first: 200 in the am and 200 in the pm. I also aggressively manage side effects. If still a problem, I may have to reduce the dose.
