  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Diagnosis of Ph+ or BCR-ABL positive CML in early CP (i.e. time from diagnosis <12 months). Except for hydroxyurea and/or 1-2 doses of cytarabine (up to 6g/m2 total), patients must have received no or minimal prior therapy, defined as 30 days of prior approved tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI).

However, patients with clonal evolution as the only criterion of AP have a significantly better prognosis, and when present at diagnosis may not impact the prognosis at all. Thus, patients with clonal evolution and no other criteria for AP will be eligible for this study.

  • Women of pregnancy potential must practice an effective method of birth control, unless otherwise instructed, during the course of the study in a manner such that risk of failure is minimized
  • Prior to study enrollment, women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must be advised of the importance of avoiding pregnancy during study participation and the potential risk factors for an unintentional pregnancy
  • Postmenopausal women must be amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential
  • Women must continue birth control for the duration of the study and at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women are excluded
  • All WOCBP must have a negative pregnancy test prior to first receiving the study drug. If the pregnancy test is positive, the patient must not receive the study drug and must not be enrolled in the study.

About this study

Official title: Randomized, Open-Label, Phase II, Multicenter, Multi-Country Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Dasatinib 50 mg in First-Line Treatment of Early Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

The purpose of this multicenter randomized study is to compare efficacy and safety of dasatinib 50 mg once daily and dasatinib 100 mg once daily in patients with early chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)

Read the detailed description

A multicenter, prospective, open-label, randomized Phase II study to compare efficacy by measuring rates of major molecular response (MMR) at 12 months in patients with Ph+ chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) randomized to receive either dasatinib 50 mg QD or dasatinib 100 mg QD. Approximately 100 patients are expected to be randomized. The duration of patient participation will be 18 months

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of patients who achieve and maintain MMR at 12 months using RQ-PCR test

    Major molecular response (MMR) is defined as BCR-ABL1 ≤ 0.1%

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Incidence of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) to dasatinib

    Evaluation of adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), and clinically relevant changes in laboratory tests according to laboratory reference ranges

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Transformation free survival (TFS) in eligible patients randomized to dasatinib 50 mg or dasatinib 100 mg treatment arms

    Transformation free survival was measured from the start of therapy to the date of transformation to accelerated or blastic phases while on therapy or to the date of last follow-up.

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Event free survival (EFS)

    EFS is measured from the start of treatment to the date of any of the following events : loss of CHR, loss of CCyR or MCyR, dose escalation, discontinuation of therapy for toxicity or lack of efficacy, progression to AP or BP, or death from any cause at any time

    Measured: 18 months

  4. Blastic phase (BP) transformation

    BP is defined as the presence of 30% blasts or more in the peripheral blood or bone marrow

    Measured: 18 months

  5. Overall survival

    Overall survival time is defined as the time from date of randomization until the date of death from any cause at any time or date of last follow up

    Measured: 18 months

  6. Proportion of patients with Complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) at 12 months

    defined as 0% Ph+ metaphases, or FISH ≤2%, or BCR-ABL transcripts (IS) ≤1%

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Proportion of patients with MR 4.5 at 18 months

    (BCR-ABL transcripts ≤ 0.0032%)

    Measured: 18 months

  8. Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL): EORTC QOLCML24

    Mean change in Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) utilizing EORTC QOLCML24 questionnaire throughout treatment visits

    Measured: 18 months

  9. Frequency of not taking the medications as prescribed

    Evaluated by identifying the frequency of not taking the medications as prescribed and the reasons. The decision on non-compliance is based on the treating physician's judgment.

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Dasatinib in people with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, run by Hikma Pharmaceuticals LLC at 5 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients who achieve and maintain MMR at 12 months using RQ-PCR test (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2023.
