Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase II trial studies how stopping tyrosine kinase inhibitors will affect treatment-free remission in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase. When the level of disease is very low, it's called molecular remission. TKIs are a type of medication that help keep this level low. However, after being in molecular remission for a specific amount of time, it may not be necessary to take tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It is not yet known whether stopping tyrosine kinase inhibitors will help patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase continue or re-achieve molecular remission.

- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Basic Science (stop taking TKI, biospecimen collection)
- description
- Patients stop taking TKI medication within 10 days after enrollment. Patients undergo peripheral blood collection to monitor loss of MMR every 4 weeks in year 1, every 6 weeks in year 2, and every 12 weeks in year 3. Patients who lose their molecular remission may restart TKI medication and are monitored every 4 weeks in year 1, every 6 weeks in year 2, and every 12 weeks in year 3.

Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Treatment-free remission (TFR)
- timeFrame
- From date of TKI discontinuation to the date of the first event (molecular recurrence, hematologic relapse, cytogenetic relapse, re-initiation of TKI therapy, second malignant neoplasm, or death) or censoring, assessed up to 2 years
- description
- The Kaplan Meier method will be used to estimate 2-year TFR along with a 95% confidence interval.
