Asciminib in Real-Life Clinical Practice, Safety and Efficacy Profile in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Pretreated Patients

Introduction: asciminib is a first-in-class STAMP (Specifically Targeting the ABL Myristoyl Pocket) inhibitor that potently inhibits aberrant kinase activity of the BCR-ABL1 oncoprotein via allosteric binding. asciminib has shown high efficacy profile in heavily pretreated Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients with an adequate safety profile in phase I and III clinical trials. However, data from the use of asciminib in real life setting are still scarce.
