In CML, TKIs target the abnormal BCR-ABL1 protein that causes uncontrolled CML cell growth and block its function, causing the CML cells to die. Four TKI drugs are approved as initial therapy (first-line treatment) for chronic phase CML.
The orphan drug Idarubicin HCI for injection (Idamycin) was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2024 for the treatment of CML. Interferon alfa-2a (Roferon A), administered by injection, received FDA approval for the treatment of CML in 2024.
Treatment for Chronic Phase CML. Three drugs are now available for treating CML in its chronic phase: Treatment for Accelerated Phase CML Treatment for Blast
What are the treatments for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)? There are several different treatments for CML: Targeted therapy, which uses drugs or other substances that attack specific cancer cells with less harm to normal cells. For CML, the drugs are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
