Thanks, Gerry. But I was hoping it would say, "The new drug mxyzptlk will cure CML after a single dose. And it costs just $10.00".

Diagnosed in February 2014. Started Imatinib 400 in April.
2014:     3.18     0.91
2015:     0.22     0.16     0.04     0.55
2016:     0.71     0.66

(Started Imatinib 600 in April 2016)
2016:     0.42     0.13     0.45
2017:     0.17     0.06     0.10     0.06     0.34

Dom,
Let's add no side effects to that idea. :-)

On the plus side hopefully they can work out why TFR doesn't work and engineer something from that finding.
