The risk of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) reactivation in CML patients under TKI therapy has been reported, but there are no clear guidelines and recommendations regarding screening and monitoring of HBV in CML patients receiving TKIs and experience on Hepatitis B reactivation under CML treatment is limited.
On the initiative of Professor Dragana Milojkovic (Imperial College London, UK), the iCMLf has formed a HBV and CML Working Group to answer open research questions. This group will collect and collate global experiences of physicians treating people with CML and HBV, with the aim of developing recommendations on monitoring and treatment for HBV in patients with CML.
The iCMLf Hepatitis B virus (HBV) Screening and Management Survey is now open and we would be delighted to learn from you.
