New hope for CML patients: dasatinib shows promise in early treatment
NCT ID NCT00254423
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether the drug dasatinib can control chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in its early chronic phase. 150 adults with newly diagnosed CML took dasatinib, and researchers measured how many achieved a major molecular response (very low levels of cancer genes) after 12 months. The goal was to see if dasatinib can keep the disease under control with manageable side effects.
