NCT ID NCT01742299
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 32 times
Summary
This study provided continued access to imatinib for 155 patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) or chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who were already benefiting from the drug in a previous Novartis trial. The main goal was to track long-term safety and ensure patients could keep receiving treatment as long as their doctor felt it was helping. It was not designed to test new effects, but to support ongoing care.
