Brief Summary: Advances in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) therapy led to an expected survival prolongation of \> 20 years after diagnosis. So far, discontinuation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors led to recurrence of disease in the majority of patients. The trial aims to improve treatment strategies in CML by improving induction therapy and deescalating maintenance therapy using low dose IFN as inducer of immunosurveillance. The trial will provide important data on the duration of active therapy in CML patients. Considering the rapidly increasing prevalence of CML this is of individual but also socioeconomic importance.
Detailed Description: Objectives

Primary:

* Evaluation of the major molecular response (MMR) rate at 18 months of nilotinib compared to nilotinib+pegylated Interferon alpha (IFN) in adult patients with newly diagnosed Ph/BCR-ABL CML in chronic phase.
* Evaluation of the feasibility to discontinue drug therapy in stable deep molecular response (MR4) after nilotinib versus IFN maintenance therapy.

Secondary:

* Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of IFN added to nilotinib 2x300 mg/day.
* Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of a maintenance therapy with nilotinib versus IFN after stable MMR after at least 24 months of nilotinib therapy.
