Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Major Molecular Response (MMR) Rate at Week 48 for All Patients With no Evidence of MMR at Baseline
Week 48

Major Molecular Response (MMR) is defined as a significant reduction in the level of BCR::ABL1 transcripts, which are the genetic markers of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Specifically, MMR is achieved when there is a ≥ 3.0 log reduction in BCR::ABL1 transcripts compared to a standardized baseline, which corresponds to a BCR::ABL1/ABL1 ratio of ≤ 0.1% on the international scale (IS). The Major Molecular Response (MMR) rate at Week 48 for all patients with no evidence of MMR at baseline refers to the percentage of patients who achieve MMR after 48 weeks of treatment, despite not having MMR at the start.

Secondary Endpoints
MMR Rate at Week 12, 24, 36, 72, 96 and 144 for Patients With no MMR at Baseline
Week 12, 24, 36, 72, 96 and 144

ABL001EXPERIMENTALParticipants will be treated with 80 mg of ABL001 (40 mg BID or 80mg QD). In patients not achieving MMR at 48 weeks or losing the response after the week 48 assessment up to week 108, asciminib dose may be escalated to 200 mg q.d. if in the investigator's opinion the patient may benefit from the escalation.
