In 1999, the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) transformed the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia - and changed the course of cancer care worldwide.

This year, we mark 25 years since that breakthrough. It’s more than a scientific milestone - it’s a story of lives extended and a global community working to ensure access to treatment for all.

To honor this anniversary, the iCMLf is sharing reflections, resources, and real-world impact from across our network:
