Abstract We analyzed the association between achievement of early complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) and event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase treated with imatinib 400 mg (n = 73), or imatinib 800 mg daily (n = 208), or second- generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (n = 154). The overall CCyR rates were 87%, 91%, and 96%, respectively (P = .06); and major molecular response (MMR) rates were 77%, 87%, and 89%, respectively (P = .05). Their 3-year EFS rates were 85%, 92%, and 97% (P = .01), and OS rates were 93%, 97%, and 100% (P = .18), respectively. By landmark analysis, patients with 3-, 6-, and 12-month CCyR had significantly better outcome: 3-year EFS rates of 98%, 97%, and 98% and OS rates of 99%, 99%, and 99%, respectively, compared with 83%, 72%, and 67% and 95%, 90%, and 94%, in patients who did not achieve a CCyR. Among patients achieving CCyR at 12 months, the depth of molecular response was not associated with differences in OS or EFS. In conclusion, second tyrosine kinase inhibitors induced higher rates of CCyR and MMR than imatinib. The achievement of early CCyR remains a major determinant of chronic myeloid leukemia outcome regardless of whether MMR is achieved or not.

Abstract Second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors are effective in Philadelphia chromosome–positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Occasionally, patients with Ph+ ALL, or accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) CML achieve a major cytogenetic response (MCyR) but not a complete hematologic response (CHR). We analyzed 126 patients with CML in AP or BP, or with Ph+ ALL treated with dasatinib or nilotinib after imatinib failure. Twenty patients received sequential treatment with both dasatinib and nilotinib for a total of 146 instances. CHR and MCyR rates were 54% and 37%, respectively in AP, 17% and 39% in BP, and 33% and 50% in Ph+ ALL. Failure to achieve a CHR at the time of achievement of a MCyR was associated with an inferior outcome, similar to that of patients without a MCyR (2-year survival rate, 37% and 35%, respectively). In contrast, patients with MCyR and concomitant CHR had a 77% 2-year survival rate. Twelve of 29 patients with MCyR without concomitant CHR later achieved a CHR; the 2-year survival rate for these patients was 55% compared with 22% for those who never achieved a CHR. These results suggest that achievement of a MCyR without concomitant CHR is associated with poor outcome.

Abstract Abstract 4442 Introduction: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a model of disease in the development of targeted therapies. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have transformed the approach to management of CML and have dramatically improved patients' outcome. Clinical response is obtained in the majority of patients. However, a significant proportion of patients do not achieve the optimal desirable outcome or are completely resistant to this treatment. ABL kinase domain mutations have been extensively implicated in the pathogenesis of TKI resistance. Treatment with second-generation TKIs has produced high rates of hematologic and cytogenetic response in mutated ABL patients. The aim of this study was analyzed the presence of ABL mutations in imatinib resistant patients and determine the importance of changing to second-generation TKIs treatment as soon as failure or suboptimal response is recognized. Patients and methods: From 420 CML patients diagnosed in 6 centers between 2004 and 2010, we have amplified and sequenced the ABL1 domain from BCR-ABL1 amplicon of 45 imatinib resistant patients (23 patients with suboptimal response, 14 with treatment failure, 4 who lost the molecular response and 4 patients who progressed to blast phase). The obtained sequences were compared with the published ABL1 sequence, GenBank U07563, using BLAST 2 software. Results: We have detected mutations in 15 of 45 patients (33%), some of them with more than one mutation (Table 1). Seven of these patients were treated with second-generation TKIs as a single treatment. Three of them achieve a major molecular response (MMR), one patient is in complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) and the other two patients are in major (MCyR) and partial (PCyR) cytogenetic response. Another patient received nilotinib followed by hematological stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and is in MMR. Two patients were submitted to a HSCT and achieve MMR. Only one patient treated with nilotinib as second option has not reach a cytogenetic response one year after detection of the mutation. Two of the patients with the T315I mutation were treated with IFN and nilotinib achieving PCyR and MCyR, respectively, and are still alive. The other T315I patient, and two patients in blast-crisis (BC) disease with the F317L mutation who received dasatinib prior to the study of ABL mutations, died before a change of treatment could have been performed. Conclusions: Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

The Impact

Abstract In 2020, for the great majority of patients with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), life expectancy is unaffected by a diagnosis of CML because of the unparalleled efficacy of ABL-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in halting disease progression. A wealth of choices exist for first-line treatment selection, including the first-generation TKI imatinib and the second-generation TKIs bosutinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib. How I select first-line therapy between first-generation and second-generation TKIs is discussed in the context of patient-specific CML disease risk, therapy-related risks, and treatment goals. Although rare, identifying patients with CML at higher risk for disease progression or resistance is important and influences first-line TKI selection. I review the impact of first-generation vs second-generation TKI selection on treatment response and outcomes; the ability to achieve, as well as the timing of, treatment-free remission; and the impact of specific TKIs on longer-term health.

Abstract Introduction. Overall survival (OS) of patients in chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) dramatically increased in the era of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). Meanwhile nearly half of patients discontinue 1-st line Imatinib due to resistance or intolerance. Half of them subsequently failure treatment with second line TKI. It seems that 20-25% of CP CML patients need 3-d line therapy (TKI-3l). There are a few reports regarding durable outcome of TKI-3l. Materials and Methods. In our retrospective study 53 patients (20 male, 33 female) with CML CP treated either by Nilotinib 400 mg BID (n=18), Dasatinib 100 mg QD (n=33) or Bosutinib 500 mg QD (n=5) as TKI-3l were included. The median age at the time of diagnosis was 46 years (23-88 years). The main reason for previous TKIs discontinuation was resistance: 48/53 (91%) had failure of one and 42/53 (79%) patients had failure of both previous TKIs treatment. Median CML duration before TKI-3l was 55 months (2-314 months). Before TKI-3l mutation analysis was performed in 35 patients: 18 mutations were revealed in 16 (46%) patients including T315I mutation in 3 cases. At the moment of 3-d line TKIs therapy initiation, all patients were in CP and 43/53 (81%) had at least complete hematologic response (CHR), 8/53 (15%) patients had major cytogenetic response (MCyR) including 1 patient with complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). Results. At the time of analysis, the median duration of TKI-3l therapy was 21 months (1-67 months). No additional patients achieved CHR, but during observational time CHR was maintained nearly in all 40/43 (93%) patients with CHR at baseline. New cases of MCyR and CCyR were observed in 15/45(33%) and 11/52(21%) of patients, respectively. Median time to MCyR and CCyR was 3.4 (3-8) and 5.2 (3-13) months, respectively. Median duration of MCyR and CCyR was 9.3 (1-43) months and 4.5 (3-6) months, respectively. Patients with resistant mutations did not obtain any cytogenetic response. TKI-3l treatment was discontinued in 21 patients. Intolerance was the reason of treatment discontinuation in 5/53(10%) cases. Progression to accelerated or blastic phases during therapy or after discontinuation occurred in 8/53 (15%) patients. Median time to progression was 14.7 months (1-46 months). There were 13 deaths in overall group of 53 patients. Two-year OS in TKI-3l was 67%. All patients with MCyR were alive and preserved CP phase. Concluson: Our results showed that 20% of patients might obtain at least CCyR and benefit with TKIs as third line. Therefore, after two TKI lines patients, who are not eligible for allogeneic transplantation and without resistant mutations should be treated with one more line of TKI therapy.
