Bosutinib has been evaluated for treatment of chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) in several clinical studies, including in Japan. This open-label, single-arm, phase 2 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of bosutinib at a starting dose of 400 mg once daily in Japanese patients (n = 60) with newly diagnosed CP-CML. The minimum follow-up period was 3 years and median duration of treatment was 35.9 months. At study completion, 60% of patients were still on treatment. Cumulative rates of major molecular response (MMR), molecular response4 (MR4), and MR4.5 at any time were 70.0%, 53.3%, and 48.3%, respectively. No patient who achieved MMR or MR4 had a confirmed loss of response. No patient experienced on-treatment transformation to accelerated/blast phase or died within 28 days of the last bosutinib dose. Any-grade treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 100% (grade ≥ 3: 81.7%) of patients. The most common TEAEs were diarrhea (86.7%), increased alanine aminotransferase (55.0%), and increased aspartate aminotransferase (46.7%). No new safety signals emerged during the follow-up period. Bosutinib continues to demonstrate a favorable benefit/risk profile and is an important treatment option for Japanese patients with newly diagnosed CP-CML. Optimal management of TEAEs during initial treatment with bosutinib should be prioritized.Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03128411. |
