CML Adherence to TKI Therapy Survey

Message from Giora:

I would like to share with you some data on our international CML patients adherence survey.
We launched the survey on 22.9 - five days ago.
This morning we had 507 responses from 54 countries! This is a great response in such a short time.

We need at least 70-80 responses from each participating country in order to complete a valid analysis of the collected data.

So far Germany has the majority of responses.........with.Holland, UK and US following close behind.

I encourage you all to answer this important survey.

Best regards, Giora.

Can we all catch up with Germany?
This is an easy survey to complete and the data collected will help undertand the complex issues we all have with trying to ahere to TKi therapy over the longer term.

Please access the survey on our 'Survey Page' which you will find on the left hand lower menu

Hi All
Thanks for participating in the International CML patients adherence survey.
Even though it seems quite obvious that a CML patient will take his life saving drugs on a daily basis, 2 studies, The Adagio and the Hammersmith, have shown that about 25-30 % of the patients don’t take as prescribed, and non adherence is directly associated with poor response and the main reason of loosing response.
A group of CML advocates has designed this important survey to better understand the reasons behind non adherence, and also to learn the cultural influences of different countries and regions. We hope that the results of this survey, will help us develop tools for patients and healthcare givers, to improve adherence.
Because this is a research done by patients for patients, we will share the results with you and other patients around the globe.
I encourage all of you who didn’t answer the survey, to take few minutes and do it

Have a great weekend all
