5. Clinical and Genetic studies in Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia
Abstract : This thesis explores strategies to enhance deep molecular response (DMR) rates and treatment-free remission (TFR) eligibility in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), investigates factors linked to treatment milestone failures, describes tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) discontinuation outcomes in a population-based cohort, and examines TFR probabilities after a second TKI discontinuation. In paper I we examined data from the Swedish CML registry on 128 CML patients in chronic phase with a reported TKI discontinuation of ≥1 month due to DMR. READ MORE
