Abstract
Purpose of review: Long-term outcomes have significantly improved with treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. With proper treatment, most patients will achieve similar survival rates compared to an age-matched population. Treatment-free remission is not attainable for over half of patients and chronic treatment carries with it unique challenges. We provide a pragmatic approach to the monitoring and management of chronic adverse effects (AEs).
Recent findings: In the presence of severe or intolerable AEs, switching tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is reasonable but is not without risk. Dose reductions can be attempted when response is stable to reduce AE intensity. More frequent molecular monitoring with any change is essential. Treatment strategies must adapt to the personalized treatment goal of each patient. Long-term survival remains good even when response is less than a complete molecular response. Consider risks of new AEs when changing therapy and evaluate for dose reductions when appropriate.
期刊介绍：
his journal intends to provide clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts that review the most important, recently published clinical findings related to the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of hematologic malignancy.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and T-cell and other lymphoproliferative malignancies. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
