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.

Inclusion criteria

* Confirmed diagnosis of Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (Ph+ CML-CP) * Adult patients aged ≥ 18 years at the index date (or adult as defined by applicable national regulations) * Documented exposure to asciminib during the identification period (May 2023 to May 2026) * Provision of signed informed consent for secondary use of data, or an ethics committee-approved waiver of consent, where applicable (including for deceased patients or where data were previously collected within the EHR system)

Exclusion criteria

* Patients who do not meet the eligibility criteria specified above * Patients with insufficient medical record documentation to determine asciminib exposure or key study outcomes

Proportion of Patients who Achieve an Early Molecular Response Milestone of BCR::ABL1 IS ≤ 1% After 6 Months of Treatment6 months
MMR in Patients Aged > 40 yearsApproximately 12 monthsMMR is defined as BCR::ABL1 IS ≤ 0.1%.
Rate of Deep Molecular ResponseApproximately 12 monthsDeep molecular response includes: * Molecular response (MR) 4.0 (BCR::ABL1 IS ≤ 0.01%), and * MR4.5 (BCR::ABL1 IS ≤ 0.0032%), where available.

Duration of CML at Time of Asciminib Treatment InitiationBaseline
Asciminib Starting DoseBaseline
Number of Patients With Dose ModificationsApproximately 3, 6, and 12 monthsNumber of patients with dose modifications including up titration or dose reduction.
Number of Treatment InterruptionsApproximately 3, 6, and 12 months
Duration of Treatment InterruptionsApproximately 3, 6, and 12 months
Number of Patients by Reasons for Treatment Interruptions and Subsequent Treatment SwitchingApproximately 3, 6, and 12 months
Number of Patients by Reason for Treatment SwitchApproximately 3, 6, and 12 months
Number of Patients by Clinicopathological CharacteristicsUp to 12 months pre-Baseline, Baseline, and approximately 3, 6 , and 12 months post-BaselineClinicopathological characteristics include: * Demographics (gender, ethnicity, nationality, smoking status, and insurance status) * Clinical presentation (signs and symptoms of disease) * Laboratory parameters (lipid panel, complete blood count, clinical chemistry, kidney, liver and pancreas function tests) * Molecular findings (BCR::ABL1 transcript types, additional cytogenetic abnormalities, and other reported mutations)
