* Male or female patients ≥ 18 years of age.
* Patients with CML-CP within 3 months of diagnosis.
* Diagnosis of CML-CP (European Leukemia Network \[ELN\] 2020 criteria) with cytogenetic confirmation of the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome. A cryptic Ph chromosome should be confirmed by metaphase Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) • Documented chronic phase CML will meet all the below criteria (Baccarani et al 2013): \~ \< 15% blasts in peripheral blood and bone marrow,

* Evidence of typical BCR::ABL1 transcript \[e14a2 and/or e13a2\] which is amenable to standardized RQ-PCR quantification by the central laboratory assessment. However, if a local qualitative assay, validated according to local regulation, from an accredited local laboratory has confirmed evidence of typical BCR::ABL1 transcript \[e14a2 and/or e13a2\], these results can be used for eligibility if the central Real Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RQ-PCR) results arrived are not available at the time of randomization.

  * QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 450 ms on the average of three serial baseline ECG (using the QTcF formula). If QTcF ≥ 450 ms and electrolytes are not within normal ranges, electrolytes should be corrected and then the patient re-screened for QTcF.
  * Long QT syndrome, family history of idiopathic sudden death or congenital long QT syndrome, or any of the following:

    * Risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP) including uncorrected hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia, history of cardiac failure, or history of clinically significant/symptomatic bradycardia.

    * Inability to determine the QTcF interval.
* Severe and/or uncontrolled concurrent medical disease that in the opinion of the Investigator could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol (e.g. uncontrolled diabetes, active or uncontrolled infection; uncontrolled arterial or pulmonary hypertension, uncontrolled clinically significant hyperlipidemia).
* History of significant congenital or acquired bleeding disorder unrelated to cancer.

Testing for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag) and Hepatitis B core antibody (HBc Ab/anti HBc) will be performed at screening. If anti-HBc is positive, HBV-DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) evaluation will be carried out at screening. A patient having positive HBV-DNA will not be enrolled in the study. Also, a patient with positive HBsAg will not be enrolled in the study. HCV Ab testing will also be performed at screening. For details on the criteria see Appendix 10.4
* History of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) unless well-controlled on a stable dose of anti-retroviral therapy at the time of screening.
* Impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of study treatment (e.g., ulcerative disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, small bowel resection, or gastric bypass surgery).
* Participation in a prior investigational study within 30 days prior to randomization or within 5 half-lives of the investigational product, whichever is longer.
* Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women
* Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception while taking study treatment and for a period of time after stopping study medication. For asciminib, this period of time is 3 days after last dose; if local regulations or locally approved prescribing information differ from the protocol required duration of contraception, the longer duration must be followed and the same requirements will be described in the Informed Consent Form (ICF). Participants taking nilotinib should be willing to follow contraception requirements in the locally-applicable prescribing information for nilotinib.

Highly effective contraception methods include:

* Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
* Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy) or total hysterectomy or bilateral salpingectomy, at least six weeks before taking study treatment. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment.
* Bilateral tubal occlusion, Bilateral tubal ligation (at least six weeks before taking study treatment).
* Male partner's sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening). For female participants on the study, the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that participant
* Use of combined, estrogen and progesterone hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, intravaginal or transdermal. Progesterone only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, injected or implanted, or placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS).

In case of use of oral contraception women should have been stable on the same pill for a minimum of 3 months before taking study treatment.

Women are considered post-menopausal if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g., age appropriate history of vasomotor symptoms). Women are considered not of child bearing potential if they are post-menopausal or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy or bilateral salpingectomy at least six weeks prior to enrollment on the study. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered to be not of child bearing potential.

Sexually active males taking study treatment do not require contraception. - Known hypersensitivity to the study treatment. Note: The Investigator has the discretion to include/exclude a patient in the study, who will be found to have symptoms representative of coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) or tested positive for COVID-19 during the screening phase. Such patients should be managed as per the country specific guidelines related to COVID-19. For patients who test positive for COVID-19, re-testing is recommended before initiating study treatment.

Exclusion Criteria for optional Treatment Free Remission (TFR) Phase:

• Participants in the TRI Phase cannot re-enter the TFR Phase for second attempt TFR.

Exclusion criteria for Treatment Re-initiation (TRI) Phase

* In case of a pregnancy or nursing (lactating) during the TFR Phase, the female participant must be discontinued from the study upon loss of MMR (\>0.1% BCR::ABL1 IS at a single assessment) and cannot enter the TRI Phase.
* Relevant exclusion criteria for treatment phase apply including but not limited to:

  * Impaired cardiac function or cardiac repolarization abnormality.
  * Severe and/or uncontrolled concurrent medical disease that in the opinion of the Investigator could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol.
