Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

Imatinib is tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It is useful in many cancers including CML.
But it is not like that imatinib cure the cancer completely.
Other treatment options are other chemotherapy or bone marrow transplantation.
Consult your doctor and plan accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health
