The experience of a physician at a clinical center is among the critical factors in managing chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) during its treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The authors conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire to investigate barriers to physician use of published evidence-based guidelines in CML management in a real-world setting. Among the participating physicians (N = 407), 99.8% of physicians reported that CML guidelines were useful; however, only 62.9% of physicians reported that they follow guidelines in real-time. Although 90.7% of physicians prefer second-generation TKIs as the first-line treatment, imatinib (88.2%) remains the most widely administered TKI in the first-line setting. Only 50.6% of physicians switched the treatment when patients failed to achieve early molecular response (at 3 months), whereas 70.3% of physicians switched the treatment when patients' response to TKI was inadequate at 6 months and/or 12 months. Moreover, only 43.5% of physicians considered treatment-free remission (TFR) as one of the top 3 goals for their patients. The major concern to obtain TFR was patients' adherence. This study demonstrated that CML management was generally in line with the current guidelines, but some of the details at the point of care are needed to be improved in CML.
