Popis: The article is focused on the results of the multicenter observational study “Quality of life and symptom profile in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase in long-term follow-up of second-line treatment” (2012–2015). Thirty imatinib-resistant or-intolerant patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase were observed in the real-world clinical setting during 24 months after start of second-line treatment with dasatinib. Mean age – 48 years old (SD = 13.1); males / females – 14 / 16; one third of patients were with comorbidity, Charlson Index – 0–5 scores. All the patients received dasatinib in the dosage of 100 mg daily. Study time points – 12, 18 and 24 months after second-line treatment start. Treatment outcomes were analyzed in terms of clinical efficacy and safety as well as in terms of patient-reported outcomes, including quality of life and symptom profile assessment. For quality of life and symptom assessment the SF-36 and CSP-CML questionnaires were used, respectively. Statisticallly significant changes in quality of life and symptom severity were analyzed by generalized estimated equation (GEE). Complete hematological response was observed in 96.3 % patients, complete cytogenetic response – in 66.6 % patients, complete or major molecular response – in 60 % patients. The acceptable tolerability of dasatinib treatment was shown during long-term follow-up: hematological and non-hematological serious adverse events were rare and didn’t lead to treatment discontinuation. Significant improvement of physical functioning, role physical functioning, role emotional functioning, vitality and mental health as compared to base-line parameters was observed (p < 0.05). The severity of a number pronounced symptoms decreased and the proportion of patients with severe symptoms reduced (p = 0.01) after 24 months of second-line treatment start. Quality of life treatment response in terms of stabilization or improvement was registered in 83 % of patients. The data of this real-world study in CML patients are in line with the results of clinical studies in terms of dasatinib treatment efficacy and safety. In addition, they demonstrate the value of patient-reported outcomes to evaluate benefits and risks of long-term dasatinib treatment from patient perspective.
