November 2022 - What are the next big challenges in CML? What are the most promising new approaches? What brings us closer to a cure for CML? These are challenging questions and finding a cure for CML is complex. However, we want to address exactly this.

We’re pleased to share the 2021-2022 iCMLf Annual Report. To begin, it’s a pleasure to start with a note from the Chairman and Chief Executive.

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

This year as we slowly work our way into a new normal after the peak of the pandemic, our efforts have solidified into two key areas:

Harnessing our power through global research
Raising the bar for CML best practice around the world

As we began our financial year in September 2021 the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 had yet to arrive and we were still collecting cases for the iCMLf COVID-19 registry. Two hundred physicians from 58 countries submitted a total of 1,050 cases giving a truly global perspective of the impact of COVID-19 on people with CML. The four publications from this registry data have all shown that people with well-controlled CML have the same risk profile as that of the general population for outcomes of COVID-19. We are incredibly proud of the work and global collaboration that resulted from this registry in spite of the devastation that made it necessary.

October 2022 - Are you coming to the ASH Annual Meeting this year? And would you like to join us for a multi-stakeholder discussion on future directions of CML?

If so, please save the date for this year’s iCMLf Forum hat will take place on Friday 9^th December from 12-3 pm.
