iCMLf Abstract Selected for Oral Presentation at ASH 2025

We’re delighted to share that the first analysis from the iCMLf/HARMONY Foundation CML Genomics Project will be presented at the ASH Annual Meeting 2025.

Professor Susan Branford will present:
Somatic mutations at diagnosis in patients with chronic phase CML receiving frontline imatinib are associated with a higher rate of treatment failure: First analysis from the International CML Foundation (iCMLf) Genomics Alliance on the HARMONY platform.

🗓 Saturday, December 6th, 9:30am (Orlando time)
📍 Oral Abstract Session: Chronic Myeloid Leukemia – Clinical and Epidemiological

Based on data from 468 patients, the study shows that somatic mutations—particularly ASXL1—may influence treatment outcomes, offering new insights for future risk stratification and CML management.

Congratulations to Professor Branford and all collaborators involved in this milestone work from the iCMLf/HARMONY CML Genomics Project.

🏃What a morning to remember!

Thank you to everyone who joined the 2025 John Goldman Fun Run during the ESH-iCMLf 27th Annual John Goldman Conference on CML: Biology and Therapy in Estoril.

More than 50 participants set off before sunrise for a 5-km seaside run—dressed in bright purple shirts, full of energy, laughter, and camaraderie. Together, we raised US $2,900 - our highest total yet! 🎉

Every step, every smile, and every donation supports the iCMLf’s mission to improve access to CML education and care in low- and middle-income countries, helping physicians and patients where it’s needed most.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who ran, walked, cheered, and donated. Your support makes a real difference.
