title: Turkish Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Study: Retrospective Sectional Analysis of CML Patients.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  here have been tremendous changes in treatment and follow-up of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in the last decade. Especially, regular publication and updating of NCCN and ELN guidelines have provided enermous rationale and base for close monitorization of patients with CML. But, it is stil needed to have registry results retrospectively to evaluate daily CML practices.
  
  
  METHODS
  In this article, we have evaluated 1133 patients' results with CML in terms of demographical features, disease status, response, resistance and use of second-generation TKIs.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The response rate has been found relatively high in comparison with previously published articles, and we detected that there was a lack of appropriate and adequate molecular response assessment.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We concluded that we need to improve registry systems and increase the availability of molecular response assessment to provide high-quality patient care.
