ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To describe the real-world effectiveness and safety of bosutinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).METHODS:
This was a multi-center, retrospective, non-interventional chart review study conducted in 10 hospitals in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.RESULTS:
Eighty-seven patients were included. Bosutinib was the third-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in 33 (38%) and fourth-line in 44 (51%) patients. Median treatment duration was 15.6 months. Among 84 patients in chronic phase (CP) at baseline, 26 (31%) switched to bosutinib due to resistance and 57 (68%) due to intolerance to prior TKIs. Cumulative complete cytogenetic and major molecular response rates in CP patients were 67% and 55%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 21.5 months, nine (11%) patients in CP died; estimated overall survival rates at 1 and 2 years postbosutinib initiation were 95% and 91%, respectively. Overall, 33/87 (38%) patients discontinued bosutinib due to either lack of efficacy/disease progression (17%), adverse events (14%), death (2%), or other reasons (5%). Eighty-two (94%) patients experienced ≥1 adverse event possibly related to bosutinib, most commonly diarrhea (52%).CONCLUSIONS:
Bosutinib used in routine clinical practice in heavily pretreated patients with CML is an effective treatment for patients in CP and is generally tolerable.Palabras clave
