Hi @mjbulte. I don’t have any personal experience with Danziten but a little sleuthing this morning shows it’s a revised version of Nilotinib (Tasinga) which you mentioned.
Here’s the briefing from Azurity Pharmaceuticals:

I haven’t found any members specifically mentioning Danziten yet. But since it’s a relatively new drug on the market it may take a little time for more replies to trickle in.
Fingers crossed for the drug approval! In the meantime, are you still taking the HU?

I started Danziten (half dose) last week. So far no severe side effects, just a bit more fatigue than normal and inflammation if I eat sugar. Blood work to be done soon and that should show how well, or not, this medication is working. So far, I haven’t heard from anyone who is taking Danziten. I’m feeling like a guinea pig!

Yes i am still taking HU. When I switch to Danziten, I will reduce HU to one capsule a day for up to 7 days and then only take Danziten. I know it’s a very new medication but would like to hear from anyone taking it. Maybe start a new thread?
