Extensión de respuestas moleculares con nilotinib en pacientes con leucemia mieloide crónica (CML) en fase crónica de diagnóstico reciente

Nilotinib

This was an open-label, single-arm, prospective, multi-center, Phase IIIb clinical study with nilotinib 300 mg bid treatment in newly diagnosed CML-CP patients not previously treated with imatinib therapy and diagnosed within 6 months of study entry. For patients insufficiently responding to nilotinib 300 mg bid, the dose may have been increased to 400 mg bid. Among patients with adverse events who had dose reduction, this study also allowed a possible re-escalation to 300 mg bid.
