Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of asciminib among young adults with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) across the Gulf region. The data source for this study will consist of routinely collected clinical information documented within the electronic health records (EHR) of participating centers.
