NCT ID NCT04948333

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study tested an oral drug called asciminib in 199 adults with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) whose cancer had not responded well to at least two previous treatments. The goal was to see how many patients achieved a major molecular response—a significant drop in leukemia-related genetic markers—after 48 weeks. Results help doctors understand how to best use this medication for people with limited options.
