  Purpose

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of nilotinib in adult patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive/BCR-ABL positive chronic myeloid leukaemia in chronic phase. The aim of the study is to confirm the rates of complete molecular remission (CMR) of nilotinib in newly diagnosed CML chronic phase patients in a pan-European population using the EUTOS standardized laboratories.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Rate of complete molecular response (CMR). Levels of BCR-ABL transcripts will be determined by RQ-PCR testing of peripheral blood and analysed at an appropriate national EUTOS reference laboratory. [ Time Frame: after 18 months of study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    CMR is defined as undetectable BCR-ABL transcripts by quantitative RT-PCR in a peripheral blood sample of at least 10 ml with a minimum sensitivity of 1:10,000.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Rate of early progression to accelerated phase and blast crisis in year 1 and 2 and the rate of events in patients achieving a CMR at 1 year [ Time Frame: at 12 and 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • The rate of MMR at, as well as by, 12 and 24 months; the rate of CCyR at, as well as by , 12 and 24 months; the rate of CHR at, as well as by, 12 and 24 months [ Time Frame: at as welll as by 12 and 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • The rate of early events, event free survival, overall survival; and safety and tolerability of nilotinib [ Time Frame: at 12 and 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Exploratory endpoints patterns [ Time Frame: at, as well as, by 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 21, and 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Exploratory endpoints include the kinetics of MMR and the dynamics of molecular response and potential patterns
