- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- initially treated patients
- description
- The dose of tyrosin kinase inhibitors (imatinib, or nilotinib, or dasatinib) in patients meeting all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be reduced in two consequent steps, during the first 6 months after study entry by 50%, during the second 6 months by 50% again; the medication is discontinued then and the patients are followed each month in the first 6 months after withdrawal, each 1,5 month in the next 6 months, and each 3 months in the next 12 months.

- timeFrame
- 6 months after entry
- description
- Proportion of patients in major molecular response (MMR) ie BCR-ABL1 (oncogenic BCR-ABL gene fusion) transcript levels \<= 0.1%) and Molecular Recurrence-Free Survival (MRFS, ie time from study entry to MMR loss, ie BCR-ABL1 transcript levels \> 0.1% in 2 consecutive samples, or death from any cause) at month 6 after study entry

Previous interferon-α treatment allowed with any treatment effect (intolerance / failure) 8. Deep molecular response \>= MR4.0 lasting \> 2 years 9. Participants in a fertile clinical trial must agree to use prescribed contraceptive methods from entry to study until one year after the last dose of study medication: * Women - Proper use of a highly reliable contraceptive method, ie combined hormonal contraceptives (in oral, vaginal or transdermal dosage form), gestagen hormonal contraceptives associated with ovulation inhibition (in oral or injectable dosage form), non-hormonal IUDs (intrauterine device) or IUDs , ev. presence of bilateral tubular occlusion, partner vasectomy, or adherence to sexual abstinence * Men - Observance of sexual abstinence or use of adequate contraceptive method (ie condom) in the case of sexual intercourse for the period from enrollment to 1 year after the last dose of the drug Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with Ph1-positive and / or BCR-ABL1-positive CML in the second chronic phase, in the accelerated phase or blast crisis (AP/BC) at any time in the history of the disease 2. Non-quantifiable type of BCR-ABL1 transcript on an international scale 3. Treatment of TKI in the second or subsequent lines due to treatment failure according to ELN (European LeukemiaNet) criteria in 2006, 2009 or 2013 4. Previous failure of TKI treatment according to ELN criteria of 2006, 2009 or 2013 5. Previous allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation 6. Previous participation in a TKI withdrawal study with a real withdrawal history 7. Previous discontinuation of TKI outside the study for other reasons (eg intolerance or pregnancy) lasting more than 9 months and / or if a treatment response was lost during less than 12 months prior to screening 8. Life expectancy of less than 36 months due to severe concurrent disease 9. Severe concurrent disease that could limit adherence to study protocol or study completion 10. Pregnancy and breastfeeding 11. Disagreement or impossibility to comply with the contraceptive measures described in point 9 of the inclusion criteria
