At the moment, chronic myeloid leukaemia is mainly described using three phases: chronic, accelerated and blast. In the chronic phase, less than 10 to 20 in every 100 cells in the blood or bone marrow are leukaemia cells. The blast phase means the leukaemia is growing more rapidly and there is a higher level of abnormal cells in the blood or bone marrow.

Targeted cancer drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors are the main treatment for chronic myeloid leukaemia. These drugs work by switching off the tyrosine kinase that the BCR-ABL1 gene makes. The BCR-ABL1 gene causes the cell to make too much of this protein, which encourages leukaemia cells to grow and multiply.
