This trial is for adults with Philadelphia-chromosome-positive or BCR::ABL1-positive chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia after one previous kinase-inhibitor treatment. Entry requires specified inadequate-response, resistance or intolerance criteria. A history of the T315I mutation excludes participation.

The idea: asciminib blocks the BCR::ABL1 protein that drives leukemia-cell growth by binding a distinct pocket. Patients take 80 milligrams orally once daily in continuous 28-day cycles for two years. Researchers measure molecular response at twelve months, side effects, symptoms and longer-term disease outcomes.

This phase 2 study plans 40 patients. Ghayas Issa leads MD Anderson’s recruiting Houston site.
