A 63-year-old woman with chronic myeloid leukemia who achieved a complete cytogenic response after 6 years of interferon-alpha went on to lose molecular response 2 years after treatment cessation. In this Case Study, Monica Bocchia and colleagues demonstrate the positive outcome in this patient following treatment with a therapeutic vaccine that consists of the p210 BCR–ABL1-derived peptide. The patient has maintained a complete molecular response for over 39 months.
