Abstract
Imatinib, the first ABL-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), was approved in 2000 for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Second- and third-generation TKIs, as well as asciminib, which targets a different site of BCR-ABL1 (the myristoyl pocket), were later approved in 2022. Currently, six drugs are approved for the treatment of CML. Revisions to the clinical guidelines for hematopoietic tumors in 2023 provided new guidance on the utility of new agents as well as TKI dose reduction and treatment discontinuation. This article outlines recently reported predictions regarding TKI treatment response, the role of asciminib in the treatment of CML, and development of new agents, as well as the latest findings regarding the current state of TKI treatment discontinuation.
