Abstract

The development of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) subsequent to chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is an uncommon occurrence, challenging conventional expectations of disease evolution in chronic leukaemia.Extensive and appropriate testing is necessary to promptly identify secondary CML in CLL patients.Targeted therapy with dasatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, may demonstrate efficacy in reducing leukocytosis and BCR-ABL1 levels in patients with coexisting CLL and CML.
