Accelerated phase chronic myelogenous leukemia is a phase of chronic myelogenous leukemia in which the disease is progressing. In this phase, 6% to 30% of the cells in the blood and bone marrow are blast cells (immature blood cells). Prognosis is very poor once chronic myelogenous leukemia reaches the accelerated phase-it behaves simalary to acute myeloid leukemia.
