Summary:

      The study purpose is to test the hypothesis that Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
      (CP-CML) patients with stable Complete Molecular Response (CMR) who discontinue Dasatinib
      treatment are able to maintain a sustained remission in the long-term, with undetectable or
      minimally detectable BCR-ABL residual disease.

          -  Target Population

               1. Men and women diagnosed with CP-CML, on treatment with dasatinib for a minimum of
                  2 years at the time of enrollment and in dasatinib-induced complete molecular
                  remission ongoing for at least 1 year prior to study entry.

               2. Patients are eligible if they have been in stable dasatinib induced CMR for a
                  minimum of nine months, documented by at least three assessments, conducted 2 -
                  6.5 months apart, at a local lab.

               3. Subjects who have received dasatinib beyond first or second line treatment and
                  meet other enrollment criteria are eligible for the study provided prior
                  Tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKI) were discontinued due to intolerance or lack
                  efficacy, although only one instance of lack of efficacy to TKI is allowed.

               4. Eastern Co-Operative Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) of 0-1

          -  Age and Reproductive Status

               1. Men and women, ages ≥18

               2. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine
                  pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the restart of study drug

               3. Women must not be breastfeeding

               4. WOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of contraception at the
                  restart of treatment with study drug (dasatinib) and for the duration treatment
                  plus 30 days (duration of ovulatory cycle) for a total of 30 days post-treatment
                  completion

               5. Men who are sexually active with WOCBP must agree to follow instructions for
                  method(s) of contraception for 90 days after study entry (withdrawal of
                  dasatinib), at restart of study drug (dasatinib) and for the duration of
                  treatment with study drug (dasatinib) plus 90 days (duration of sperm turnover)
                  for a total of 90 days post-treatment completion

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Target Disease Exceptions

               2. A serious uncontrolled medical disorder or active infection that would impair the
