New hope for CML patients with Hard-to-Treat mutation?

NCT ID NCT06514534

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing the drug asciminib in 20 adults with chronic myeloid leukemia who have a specific genetic change (T315I mutation) and cannot take the standard drug ponatinib. The goal is to see if asciminib can control the leukemia and improve outcomes. Participants take asciminib pills twice a day, and the study will measure how well the cancer responds after 12 months.

asciminib (Scemblix®)

What this could lead to

If successful, asciminib could offer a new treatment option for CML patients with the T315I mutation who have run out of other therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work as hoped or could have side effects.
