Is it possible to turn from cml to aml?

Categories:

My diagnosis is Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Chronic Phase.
At first my blast was 5% but now it is 00%
My pcr is 0.033
Is it possible to turn AML or other leukemia?

CML can progress to "blast crisis", which is similar to AML in many ways. But this is not that common really and usually occurs when someone has been diagnosed very late when the disease is already advanced.

However, with 0% blasts in your blood and given you are in MMR, and not that far from MR4 you are not at risk of this, at all.
