Preferred treatment options for patients with accelerated phase CML include second- or third-generation TKIs (bosutinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, or ponatinib). The first-generation TKI, imatinib, or the protein synthesis inhibitor, omacetaxine, may be considered for patients in whom a second- or third-generation TKI is contraindicated or resisted.
