ABSTRACT=<p>The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has transformed the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Each approved TKI has its own risk-benefit profile, and patients have choices across lines of therapy. Identifying the initial and subsequent treatment that will lead to the best possible outcome for individual patients is challenging. In this review, we summarize data for each approved TKI across lines of therapy in patients with CML in chronic phase, highlighting elements of each agent’s safety and efficacy profile that may impact patient selection, and provide insights into individualized treatment sequencing decision-making aimed at optimizing patient outcomes.</p>
