Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug in children. The goal is to see if it works better than other drugs already being used to treat kids with cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for pediatric patients aged 1 to <18 years with chronic myeloid leukemia who have been treated with at least one TKI. They must not be pregnant, have a history of severe liver disease or pancreatitis, and cannot plan for a stem cell transplant. Eligible participants should have stable blood counts and organ functions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two formulations of asciminib (pediatric and adult) in young patients previously treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). It aims to establish the appropriate dose for children while assessing safety by comparing responses between age groups.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not specified but may include those common to cancer treatments such as nausea, fatigue, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk, liver issues, and potential heart problems.
