Trial summary

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) diagnosis is based on the demonstration of a BCR-ABL fusion transcript expressed by the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome by RQ-PCR and/or the demonstration of t(9;22)(q34;q11) by conventional karyotyping or interphase FISH. Read more about this study

About this study

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) diagnosis is based on the demonstration of a BCR-ABL fusion transcript expressed by the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome by RQ-PCR and/or the demonstration of t(9;22)(q34;q11) by conventional karyotyping or interphase FISH. As per standard practice, response to therapy is monitored using either molecular or cytogenetic tests or both; specifically, patients are monitored by quantitative PCR on peripheral blood, supplemented by bone marrow karyotyping if it was clinically indicated. ABL kinase mutational analysis is carried out when the transcript ratio has increased over two sequential samples or on clinical demand. Testing for T315I mutation is also performed for patients who fail to respond to first line TKI and all patients who acquire TKI resistance over the course of their treatment.

Data collection is initiated six months after date of diagnosis; research nurses working to agreed operating procedures and data standards visit each of the 14 hospitals in the region and abstract a core clinical dataset from the patients' medical records. The information collected includes demographic details, baseline blood count data and first line treatment. All details are abstracted onto structured forms and entered onto the web-based system, which integrates Haematological Malignancy Research Network (HMRN) and Haematological Malignancy Diagnostic Service (HMDS) data. An important feature of data acquisition is the emphasis on primary source information; data from radiology reports, blood tests, clinical examination, and clinician summaries are recorded, enabling embedded algorithms in the database system to automatically generate stage and prognostic scores. Further data abstraction from the medical records has been undertaken to capture information on subsequent treatment lines. Information on date and cause of death were obtained from the National Health Service (NHS) Central Register.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients who received tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), by treatment llne

    Measured: Up to 18 years

  2. Year treatment started, by TKI

    Measured: Up to 18 years

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of patients with response to TKIs

    Disease response was defined as either a major molecular response (MMR, ≤ 0.1% BCR-ABL1) or as an MR2, which is a molecular response (MR, ≤ 1.0% BCR-ABL1), or complete cytogenetic remission (CCyR).

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  2. Time to response to TKIs

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  3. Reason for switching TKI

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  4. Number of patients tested for T315I mutation by treatment line

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  5. Overall survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time (in years) from initiation of treatment (i.e., the index date) to death (any cause).

    Measured: Up to 10 years

  6. Progression-free survival

    PFS was defined from the initiation of treatment (i.e., the index date) to the earliest documentation of disease progression to accelerated phase/blast crisis (AP/BC) or date of death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 10 years

  7. Time to treatment discontinuation

    Measured: Up to 10 years

  8. Relative survival by treatment line

    Relative survival (RS) was estimated to examine the CML-specific mortality rate. The Stata program strel (v1.2.7) was used to estimate RS and corresponding 95% Confidence Intervals (95%CI); with age and sex-specific background mortality rates being obtained from national life tables.

    Measured: Up to 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 8 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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.

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?

Number of patients who received tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), by treatment llne (time frame: Up to 18 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jun 2023.
