The recently launched new module of the iCMLf’s Virtual Education Program presents the results of a global survey on the non-adherence of CML patients – a key problem in CML. The survey conducted by the CML Advocates Network evaluated data from 2,546 CML patients from 79 countries.
The webcast is presented by Giora Sharf, co-founder of the CML Advocates Network and President of the Israeli CML Patient Organization.
Over 100 physicians attended the 2012 annual 'iCMLf Forum for Physicians from Emerging Economic Regions'. Held during the annual American Society of Hematology meeting (ASH) and in partnership with the Max Foundation (MAX), this iCMLf Forum is an ideal opportunity for physicians from these regions to meet and discus the challenges they face treating CML in a resource limited setting. The 2012 iCMLf Forum specifically focused on three examples of solutions implemented to address these challenges and projects were presented from India, Paraguay and Sri Lanka.
