Popis: Current treatment options for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with imatinib allowed achieving long-term progression-free and overall survival and improved patient quality of life. In cases of imatinib resistance therapy with second-generation tyrosine kinases inhibitors – dasatinib and nilotinib – is also possible. The article represents a literature review evaluating efficacy and toxicity of both drugs and highlighting some of the practical issues of CML treatment after first-line therapy failure.
