CML, all patients in our cohort (n = 59); AP/BP, the blast phase subset (n = 16); CP/CP-All, chronic phase subset (n = 43). Fractionation of CP patients into subsets based on their treatment responses: progressive, patients progressed to AP/BP; poor, patients who failed to achieve MMR at any time; responsive, patients who achieved MMR either by 12 months (optimal) or after 12 months (suboptimal).

2G, second generation; BM, bone marrow; CCyR, complete cytogenetic response; Hb, hemoglobin; MMR, major molecular response; minCyR, minimal cytogenetic response; NA: no available data; PB, peripheral blood; PCyR, partial cytogenetic response; WBC, white blood cell.
