Cml into aml: CML can transform into a blastic phase but we will still refer it as as CML and not aml. Treatment depends upon what therapies have been used already. If Gleevec (imatinib) used before, we can still try nilotinib or dasatinib. In younger patients transplant would be considered too if they go in remission.
