RESUMEN
Asciminib targets the BCR::ABL1 myristoyl pocket, maintaining activity against BCR::ABL1T315I, which is resistant to most approved adenosine triphosphate-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We report updated phase I results (NCT02081378) assessing safety/tolerability and antileukemic activity of asciminib monotherapy 200 mg twice daily in 48 heavily pretreated patients with T315I-mutated chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP; data cutoff: January 6, 2021). With 2 years' median exposure, 56.3% of patients continued receiving asciminib. Overall, 62.2% of evaluable patients achieved BCR::ABL1 ≤1% on the International Scale (IS); 47.6% and 81.3% of ponatinib-pretreated and -naive patients, respectively, achieved BCR::ABL1IS ≤1%. Of 45 evaluable patients, 48.9% achieved a major molecular response (MMR, BCR::ABL1IS ≤0.1%), including 34.6% and 68.4% of ponatinib-pretreated and -naive patients, respectively. MMR was maintained until data cutoff in 19 of 22 patients who achieved it. The most common grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) included increased lipase level (18.8%) and thrombocytopenia (14.6%). Five (10.4%) patients experienced AEs leading to discontinuation, including 2 who discontinued asciminib and died due to COVID-19; these were the only deaths reported. These results show asciminib's effectiveness, including in almost 50% of ponatinib pretreated patients, and confirm its risk-benefit profile, supporting its use as a treatment option for T315I-mutated CML-CP.

BACKGROUND: The dual inhibition of the BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase and BCL-2 could potentially deepen the response rates of chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of the combination of dasatinib and venetoclax. METHODS: In this phase 2 trial, patients with CML-CP or accelerated phase (clonal evolution) received dasatinib 50 mg/day for three courses; venetoclax was added in course 4 for 3 years. The initial venetoclax dose was 200 mg/day continuously but reduced later to 200 mg/day for 14 days, and to 100 mg/day for 7 days per course once a molecular response (MR)4.5 was achieved. After 3 years of combination, patients were maintained on single-agent dasatinib. The primary end point was the rate of major molecular response (MMR) by 12 months of combination. RESULTS: Sixty-five patients were treated. Their median age was 46 years (range, 23-73). By 12 months of combination, the MMR, MR4, and MR4.5 rates were 86%, 53%, and 45%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 42 months, the 4-year event-free and overall survival rates were 96% and 100%, respectively. Outcomes with the combination were comparable to historical outcomes with single-agent dasatinib (cumulative 12-months MMR rate of 79% with both strategies). The incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia was 22% with the combination and 11% with single-agent dasatinib (p < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Treatment with dasatinib and venetoclax was safe and effective in CML-CP. The cumulative response rates with the combination were similar to those with single-agent dasatinib. Further follow-up is needed to evaluate the rates of durable deep molecular response and treatment-free remission.

BACKGROUND: Diminished bioavailability of imatinib in leukemic cells contributes to poor clinical response. We examined the impact of genetic polymorphisms of imatinib on the pharmacokinetics and clinical response in 190 patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). METHODS: Single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped using pyrophosphate sequencing. Plasma trough levels of imatinib were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Patients carrying the TT genotype for ABCB1 (rs1045642, rs2032582, and rs1128503), GG genotype for CYP3A5-rs776746 and AA genotype for ABCG2-rs2231142 polymorphisms showed higher concentration of imatinib. Patients with T allele for ABCB1 (rs1045642, rs2032582, and rs1128503), A allele for ABCG2-rs2231142, and G allele for CYP3A5-rs776746 polymorphisms showed better cytogenetic response and molecular response. In multivariate analysis, carriers of the CYP3A5-rs776746 G allele exhibited higher rates of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) and major molecular response (MMR). Similarly, patients with the T allele of ABCB1-rs1045642 and rs1128503 demonstrated significantly increased CCyR rates. Patients with the A allele of ABCG2-rs2231142 were associated with higher MMR rates. The AA genotype for CYP3A5-rs776746, and the CC genotype for ABCB1-rs104562, and rs1128503 polymorphisms were associated with a higher risk of imatinib failure. Patients with the G allele for CYP3A5-rs776746 exhibited a higher incidence of anemia, and T allele for ABCB1-rs2032582 demonstrated an increased incidence of diarrhea. CONCLUSIONS: Genotyping of ABCB1, ABCG2, and CYP3A5 genes may be considered in the management of patients with CML to tailor therapy and optimize clinical outcomes.

Dasatinib is one of the second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) which is approved for the treatment of patients with chronic phase CML (CP-CML) both in the front line and in the second line setting. Pleural effusion (PE) is a unique toxicity associated with dasatinib use. Our aim was to study the incidence of pleural effusion in our cohort of patients who were treated with dasatinib for CP-CML and the safety upon TKI switch. A total of 390 patients were treated with dasatinib during their course of treatment for CP-CML. A total of 69 patients (17.6%) developed any grade of PE. About 33 (48%) patients developed CTCAE grade 2 PE, 34 (49%) grade 3 and only 1 patient developed grade 4 PE. Recurrence of PE was observed in 34 (49%) patients. While only 12 patients (17.3%) continued using dasatinib after development of PE, dasatinib was discontinued in the other 57 patients. Therapy was switched to bosutinib in 13 patients out of which 6 (46%) patients re-developed PE. While only 12.5% patients developed re-accumulation of pleural fluid in patients switched to imatinib, none of the patients switched to nilotinib re-developed PE. A change in TKI to bosutinib was associated with a 46% risk of recurrence of PE in patients who develop PE on dasatinib for the treatment of CP-CML. The incidence of recurrent PE was markedly lower in patient switched to imatinib or nilotinib.

Advancements in the management of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) allowed them to achieve survival comparable with their healthy counterparts. Consequently, their care has widened with growing focus on quality of life, including parenting children. Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are contraindicated in pregnancy given their teratogenic effect, their effect on male fertility is less clear with contradictory results from animal studies and case reports/series. We compared the sperm analysis parameters, as the gold-standard assessment for male fertility, of 11 patients with CP- CML before and after TKI therapy. Median therapy duration was 5.1 years (range: 2.5-16.5). The sperm concentration, % progressive, and total motility before and after therapy were not significantly different (p = 0.376, 0.569, and 0.595, respectively). Our results suggest no impairment in fertility potential in male patients after TKI therapy. A larger sample size is crucial to support/refute our findings.

The BYOND study evaluated the efficacy and safety of bosutinib 500â¯mg once daily in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) resistant/intolerant to prior tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). These post-hoc analyses assessed the efficacy and safety of bosutinib by resistance or intolerance to prior TKIs (imatinib-resistant vs dasatinib/nilotinib-resistant vs TKI-intolerant), and cross-intolerance between bosutinib and prior TKIs (imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib), in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic phase CML. Data are reported after ≥3 years' follow-up. Of 156 patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic phase CML, 53 were imatinib-resistant, 29 dasatinib/nilotinib-resistant, and 74 intolerant to all prior TKIs; cumulative complete cytogenetic response rates at any time were 83.7%, 61.5%, and 86.8%, and cumulative major molecular response rates at any time were 72.9%, 40.7%, and 82.4%, respectively. Of 141, 95, and 79 patients who received prior imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib, 64 (45.4%), 71 (74.7%), and 60 (75.9%) discontinued the respective TKI due to intolerance; of these, 2 (3.1%), 5 (7.0%), and 0 had cross-intolerance with bosutinib. The response rates observed in TKI-resistant and TKI-intolerant patients, and low cross-intolerance between bosutinib and prior TKIs, further support bosutinib use for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic phase CML resistant/intolerant to prior TKIs. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02228382.

BACKGROUND: There are limited data comprehensively comparing therapy responses and outcomes among nilotinib, dasatinib, flumatinib and imatinib for newly diagnosed chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia in a real-world setting. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from patients with chronic-phase CML receiving initial a second-generation tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (2G-TKI, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib) or imatinib therapy from 77 Chinese centers were retrospectively interrogated. Propensity-score matching (PSM) analyses were performed to to compare therapy responses and outcomes among these 4 TKIs. RESULTS: 2,496 patients receiving initial nilotinib (n = 512), dasatinib (n = 134), flumatinib (n = 411) or imatinib (n = 1,439) therapy were retrospectively interrogated in this study. PSM analyses indicated that patients receiving initial nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib therapy had comparable cytogenetic and molecular responses (p = .28-.91) and survival outcomes including failure-free survival (FFS, p = .28-.43), progression-free survival (PFS, p = .19-.93) and overall survival (OS) (p values = .76-.78) but had significantly higher cumulative incidences of cytogenetic and molecular responses (all p values < .001) and higher probabilities of FFS (p < .001-.01) than those receiving imatinib therapy, despite comparable PFS (p = .18-.89) and OS (p = .23-.30). CONCLUSION: Nilotinib, dasatinib and flumatinib had comparable efficacy, and significantly higher therapy responses and higher FFS rates than imatinib in newly diagnosed CML patients. However, there were no significant differences in PFS and OS among these 4 TKIs. These real-world data may provide additional evidence for routine clinical assessments to identify more appropriate therapies.

BACKGROUND: Myelofibrosis is reported in around 40% of newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients and have an important role in the pathobiology and prognosis of CML. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the effects of bone marrow (BM) fibrosis on disease prognosis and the effects of specific tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) on BM fibrosis in CML patients. METHODS: The study included 96 patients (>18 years) diagnosed with chronic phase (CP) CML. The clinical and demographic information were collected from the medical files. Post-treatment BM aspirate and core biopsy samples were analyzed for the presence of fibrosis and dysplasia. RESULTS: The mean age of the study patients was 52.69 years; 47.9% of the patients were female. At the onset, 53 (63.1%) patients had BM fibrosis. The difference in the overall survival of the patients with respect to BM fibrosis grades was significant (p = .001). Within the BM fibrosis grade groups, there were significant differences between grade 0 vs. grade 2, grade 0 vs. grade 3, and grade 1 vs. grade 3 (p = .005, p = .002, and p = .003 respectively) There was no significant association between the presence of BM fibrosis at the onset and not responding to first-line therapy (p = .724). Moreover, no significant association was found between the presence of BM fibrosis at the onset and molecular (p = .623) or cytogenetic response (p = .535) to first-line therapy. Additionally, the association between the type of second-line and third-line therapy and molecular response (p = .773 and p = .424, respectively) or cytogenetic response (p = .298 and p = .641) was not significant. CONCLUSION: Although BM fibrosis seems to be a crucial complication of CML with a poor prognosis, it can be reversed via TKI treatment which may result in improved survival. It might be considered to check the BM for this complication on a regular basis during therapies to test its prognostic influence in CML patients in prospective controlled trials. Further studies focused on this issue are required to utilize BM fibrosis as a candidate prognostic factor.

Over the past several years, advances in research, treatment, and market dynamics have impacted treatment strategies in chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). They include the broader availability of cost-effective generic imatinib, and soon other generic second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Access to affordable generics means that all patients with CML-CP should have access to safe and highly effective lifelong therapies. When overall survival is the treatment endpoint, imatinib provides a good treatment value. Second-generation TKIs may be the best frontline strategy when treatment-free remission is the goal. Recent studies have shown maintained efficacy and reduced toxicity when TKIs are used at reduced dosing. Reduced-dose schedules of second-generation TKIs (which are less toxic and induce faster deep molecular responses) may render generic second-generation TKIs a more attractive treatment option. Adjusting the dose of TKI in the presence of mild-to-moderate, or even severe but reversible, adverse events may be preferable to switching to a different TKI. The selection of second-line and beyond therapies depends on the evolving patterns observed with frontline treatment. Dose-adjusted ponatinib schedules have demonstrated improved efficacy and safety in patients resistant to second-generation TKIs or those with T315I-mutated disease. For asciminib, longer-term follow-up is needed to better evaluate its safety and efficacy compared with ponatinib. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation represents a valid alternative to newer-generation TKIs, with a better treatment value when TKIs are priced at >$40,000/year.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is defined by the presence of Philadelphia chromosome resulting from a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 [t9;22] that gives rise to a BCR::ABL1 fusion gene. CML occurs in 3 different phases (chronic, accelerated, and blast phase) and is usually diagnosed in the chronic phase in developed countries. Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy is a highly effective treatment option for patients with chronic phase-CML. The primary goal of TKI therapy in patients with chronic phase-CML is to prevent disease progression to accelerated phase-CML or blast phase-CML. Discontinuation of TKI therapy with careful monitoring is feasible in selected patients. This manuscript discusses the recommendations outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of patients with chronic phase-CML.

The management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) diagnosed during pregnancy is a rare and challenging situation. We report the treatment and outcome of 87 cases diagnosed in chronic phase from 2001-2022 derived from the largest international observational registry, supported by the European LeukemiaNet (ELN), of 400 pregnancies in 299 CML women. Normal childbirth occurred in 76% without an increased rate of birth abnormalities or life-threatening events, including in patients untreated or treated with interferon-α and/or imatinib in 2nd-3rd trimester. The low birth weight rate of 12% was comparable to that seen in the normal population. Elective and spontaneous abortions occurred in 21% and 3%, respectively. The complete hematologic response rate before labor was 95% with imatinib and 47% with interferon only. No disease progression during pregnancy was observed, 28% of the patients switched their therapy at varying times after delivery. Treatment options balance the efficacy and safety for mother and infant: interferon-α can commence in the 1st trimester and continued throughout in cases of good disease control and tolerability. Because of limited placental crossing, selected tyrosine kinase inhibitors (imatinib and nilotinib) seem to be safe and effective options in 2nd and 3rd trimester while hydroxycarbamide offers few benefits.

Ponatinib, the only approved all known-BCR::ABL1 inhibitor, is a third-generation tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) designed to inhibit BCR::ABL1 with or without any single resistance mutation, including T315I, and induced robust and durable responses at 45 mg/day in patients with CP-CML resistant to second-generation TKIs in the PACE trial. However, cardiovascular toxicities, including arterial occlusive events (AOEs), have emerged as treatment-related AEs within this class of TKIs. The OPTIC trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of ponatinib using a novel, response-based, dose-reduction strategy in patients with CP-CML whose disease is resistant to ≥2 TKIs or who harbor T315I. To assess the dose-response relationship and the effect on the safety of ponatinib, we examined the outcomes of patients with CP-CML enrolled in PACE and OPTIC who received 45 mg/day of ponatinib. A propensity score analysis was used to evaluate AOEs across both trials. Survival rates and median time to achieve ≤1% BCR::ABL1IS in OPTIC were similar or better than in PACE. The outcomes of patients with T315I mutations were robust in both trials. Patients in OPTIC had a lower exposure-adjusted incidence of AOEs compared with those in PACE. This analysis demonstrates that response-based dosing for ponatinib improves treatment tolerance and mitigates cardiovascular risk.

INTRODUCTION: Limited data exist comparing dasatinib with imatinib in clinical practice. This study assessed real-world outcomes associated with first-line (1L) dasatinib or imatinib treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective, observational, United States multisite cohort study analyzed electronic medical record data from adults with Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) CML in the chronic phase (CML-CP) after 1L dasatinib or imatinib between January 2014 and September 2018. Rates of and times to major molecular response (MMR) and deep molecular response (DMR) were assessed overall and in subgroups (low vs. intermediate/high risk, aged <65 vs. ≥65 years, low/normal vs. high body mass index [BMI]). RESULTS: The dasatinib cohort (n = 309) experienced higher rates of MMR (n = 304, 79% vs. 65%, P < .001) and DMR (44% vs. 25%, P < .001) vs. the imatinib cohort with shorter median times to MMR (11.9 vs. 14.7 months, P < .001) and DMR (30.3 vs. 66.1 months, P < .001). Patients with intermediate-/high-risk disease and those aged <65 years had higher MMR and DMR rates and achieved response earlier with dasatinib (P < .01). Patients with low-risk disease treated with dasatinib had higher rates of DMR (60% vs. 32%, P = .01). Across BMI strata, rates of MMR and DMR were higher with dasatinib (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CML-CP treated with 1L dasatinib achieved higher rates of, with shorter times to, MMR and DMR versus 1L imatinib. These clinically meaningful improvements were observed across subgroups.

O tratamento da leucemia mieloide crônica (LMC) foi radicalmente modificado com a introdução dos inibidores de tirosina quinase (ITK) na prática clínica. Entretanto, a resistência aos ITK é um problema clínico crescente que acomete 35% dos pacientes com LMC em fase crônica (FC). Dentre os mecanismos envolvidos na resistência, se destaca a presença de mutações no domínio quinase (DQ) da proteína BCR-ABL. Porém, estas mutações ocorrem em 3060% dos pacientes resistentes, evidenciando a heterogenidade dos mecanismos subjacentes ao aparecimento da resistência. Processos epigenéticos, como a metilação do DNA, modificação de histonas e expressão de microRNAs (miRNAs) ainda não foram amplamente estudados em relação à resistência na LMC. Os miRNAs, pequenos RNAs que regulam a expressão gênica, têm surgido recentemente como um mecanismo epigenético importante na fisiologia do câncer. O objetivo principal deste trabalho foi analisar os padrões de resposta de um grupo de pacientes com LMC submetidos à terapia com Imatinibe (IM), visando identificar mecanismos genéticos e epigenéticos relacionados com a resposta e a resistência aos ITK. Para isto, foram estudados 264 pacientes com LMC tratados com IM por um tempo médio de 30 meses (6-123), com 70% dos casos utilizando o inibidor por >12 meses. As taxas de resposta foram de 76% de resposta citogenética completa (RCgC), 63% de resposta molecular maior (RMM) e 29% de resposta molecular completa (RMC) nos pacientes com LMC-FC. Foi identificado um grupo de respondedores tardios, que representam ~30% dos pacientes que não alcançaram uma RCgC e/ou RMM nos tempos ótimos após inicio do IM. Um grupo de 126 pacientes foi selecionado para pesquisa de mutações no DQ. A presença de mutações foi avaliada por sequenciamento direto, por um ensaio de PCR alelo específico (PCR-AS) para detecção da mutação T315I e a quantificação dos clones mutados foi realizada por pirosequenciamento. Dos casos analisados, 23% apresentaram mutações no DQ. As mutações mais frequentes foram T315I (20%) e F359I/V (11,4%). A quantificação realizada por piro-sequenciamento forneceu informações complementares relevantes sobre o papel do tamanho do clone mutado na resposta ou resistência. Em um grupo de 17 pacientes, selecionados de acordo à resposta obtida com IM, foi realizada uma análise do perfil de expressão de miRNAs maduros através de arrays de TLDA (do inglês TaqMan Low Density Array). Foi identificado um grupo de 4 miRNAs diferencialmente expressos ao diagnóstico quando comparados os grupos de pacientes com resposta ao IM vs resistentes ao IM: miR-155, -451, -18b, -125a-5p. Um grupo de 29 miRNAs apresentou um padrão similar de variação da expressão durante o tratamento. Os níveis de expressão dos miR-451 e miR-148a mostraram uma correlação inversa com a carga tumoral aferida pelos níveis do transcrito BCR-ABL. Esta correlação foi mais consistente para o miR-148a. As análises in silico para predição de alvos para o miR148a indicaram 6 alvos potencialmente relacionados com a LMC: os genes E2F3, PIK3R3, IKKα, IKKß, p27Kip e SHP-2. Foi comprovado que a expressão do miR-148a em linhagens celulares de LMC está regulada por metilação do DNA.

The incidence of one or other rearrangement in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients varies in different reported series. In this study we report the frequencies of BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript variants studied in 43 CML patients from Sudan. The study includes 46 Sudanese patients, three of which negative for the BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript. More than half of 43 positive patients showed b2a2 fusion transcript (53.5 percent), while (41.9 percent) showed b3a2 transcript and the remaining (4.6 percent) coexpression of b3a2/ b2a2 and b3a2/b2a2/e19a2. We detected neither coexpression of p210/p190 nor e1a2 alone. Male patients showed a tendency to express b2a2, while female tende to express b3a2 (p = 0.017). Moreover, a single nucleotide polymorphism was detected in BCR exon 13 in one out of four patients and this patient showed only b2a2 expression. In conclusion, we observed a significant correlation between sex and type of BCR-ABL1 transcript, an observation that deserves further investigation.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The increasing number of patients waiting for bone marrow transplantation in our service led to the implement of an early hospital discharge program with the intention of reducing the interval between diagnosis and transplantation. In this study we analyzed the results from early discharge, with outpatient care for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. DESIGN AND SETTING: Retrospective study at the Bone Marrow Transplantation Unit of Hospital das Clínicas, Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo. METHODS: We compared clinical outcomes within 100 days post-transplantation, for 51 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who received partially outpatient-based allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and the results were compared with a historical control group of 49 patients who received inpatient-based hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. RESULTS: There were significantly fewer days of hospitalization (p = 0.004), Pseudomonas-positive cultures (p = 0.006) and nausea and vomiting of grade 2-3 (p < 0.001) in the outpatient group. There were no significant differences in mortality between the groups and no deaths occurred within the first 48 days post-transplantation in the outpatient group. CONCLUSIONS: This partially outpatient-based hematopoietic stem cell transplantation program allowed an increased number of transplantations in our institution, in cases of CML and other diseases, since it reduced the median length of hospital stay without increasing morbidity and mortality.
CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: O número crescente de pacientes com indicação de transplante de medula óssea levou à implantação da alta hospitalar precoce em nosso serviço, com o intuito de reduzir o intervalo entre o diagnóstico e o transplante. Neste trabalho, avaliamos os resultados da alta precoce, com acompanhamento ambulatorial dos pacientes submetidos ao transplante de medula óssea alogênico portadores de leucemia mielóide crônica. TIPO E ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo retrospectivo, realizado no Serviço de Transplante de Medula Ossea do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados os resultados do transplante de medula óssea alogênico, de doadores aparentados, até o dia 100 pós-transplante, de 51 pacientes portadores de leucemia mielóide crônica que receberam alta precoce, antes da pega medular. Os resultados foram comparados com o controle histórico constituído por 49 pacientes que receberam alta somente após a pega medular. RESULTADOS: Houve significativamente menos dias de hospitalização (p = 0,004), culturas positivas para Pseudomonas sp. (p = 0,006) e náusea e vômitos graus 2-3 (p < 0,001) no grupo de alta precoce. Não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos quanto à mortalidade e não ocorreu nenhum óbito até o dia 48 pós-transplante no grupo de alta precoce. CONCLUSÕES: O programa de alta precoce permitiu aumento do número de transplantes em leucemia mielóide crônica e outras doenças em nosso serviço, com redução do número de dias de internação hospitalar sem aumento da morbidade ou da mortalidade.

El pronóstico de la leucemia mieloide crónica (LMC) mejoró substancialmente con el tratamiento con Interferón alfa (IFNalfa) y los mejores resultados estarían relacionados a la respuesta genética (RG). Para evaluar tal presunción, se compararon los resultados terapéuticos obtenidos en 30 pacientes con LMC Ph+ en primera fase crónica, tratados con IFN alfa 5 MU/M²/d (Grupo 1) con los resultados obtenidos en 31 pacientes pertenecientes a un protocolo previo basado en IFN alfa 3 MU 3/v/sem., más 6-mercapto purina 150mg/d/v.o. y citarabina 150 mg/d/sc por cuatro días por mes (Grupo 2). El Grupo 1 tuvo mejores respuestas hematológicas completas (80 por ciento) y RG (76 por ciento) que el Grupo 2 (29 por ciento y 17 por ciento respectivamente) (p < 0.001). La duración de la fase crónica fue más larga en el Grupo 1, 43 meses contra 18 meses en el Grupo 2 (p < 0.001). Además, la probabilidad de sobrevida a 5 años (SV) fue mejor en el Grupo 1, 62 por ciento contra 15 por ciento en el Grupo 2 (p < 0.001). En nuestra experiencia, 5 MU/M²/d de IFN alfa prolongó la SV y la duración de la fase crónica, independientemente de la RG, sugiriendo que los beneficios del IFN alfa podrían relacionarse a otros mecanismos de acción, además de la supresión del cromosoma Ph.
