Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to determine if using dasatinib together with ropeginterferon can help control chronic myeloid leukemia in its chronic phase. Researchers will also study how safe this combination is for patients.
Description
The main goal of this study is to see how many patients achieve a significant reduction in leukemia markers in their blood after 12 months of treatment with dasatinib and ropeginterferon. Researchers will also look at how many patients have no detectable leukemia cells in their blood or a major reduction in leukemia markers after 12 months. They will track the number of patients who maintain a deep response to treatment over two years or more. The study will also evaluate the safety of the treatment and monitor patients' survival without events related to leukemia for up to 10 years after the last patient joins the study.
