CML patients and the coronavirus: What you should know
COVID-19
CML - Chronic myeloid leukemia
Important message from the iCMLf group
COVID-19 case collection and case discussion
By iCMLf - International Chronic myeloid Foundation
"At present we do not have data on CML patients who have been infected with COVID-19. To help gather CML specific information, the iCMLf is collecting details of CML patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
We are collecting both confirmed and suspected cases."
COVID-19 & Hematology Information Center - EHA

ALERT
"All TKI have the capacity to prolong the QTc interval and strongly interact with drugs such as chloroquine and azithromycin, 2 drugs that are currently evaluated against COVID-19. Combining these medications with TKI in the absence of medical prescription and supervision may lead to fatal torsade de pointe."
