    Abstract: Background. The end phase or metamorphosis is one of the remaining challenges of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) management. Blast crisis (BC) is a late marker. Earlier diagnosis may improve outcome. The detection of additional chromosomal abnormalities (ACA) at low blast levels might allow earlier treatment when outcome is better. Methods. We made use of 1536 Ph+CML-patients in chronic phase followed in the randomized CML study IV (Hehlmann et al, Leukemia 2017) for a median of 8.6 years. 1510 cytogenetically evaluable patients were analyzed for ACA and blast increase (Flow chart). According to impact on survival ACA were grouped into high-risk (+ 8; +Ph; i(17q); +17; +19 +21; 3q26; 11q23; -7; complex) and low-risk (all other). Prognosis with +8 alone was clearly better than with +8 accompanied by further abnormalities, but still worse than with low-risk ACA. +8 alone was therefore included in the high-risk group. The presence of high- and low-risk ACA was linked to 6 thresholds of blast increase (1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 30%) in a Cox proportional hazards model. Results. 139 patients (9.2%) displayed ACA at any time before BC diagnosis, 88 (5.8%) had high-risk and 51 (3.4%) low-risk ACA. ACA emerged after a median of 17 (0-133) months. 79 patients developed BC. 43 (61%) of 71 cytogenetically evaluable patients with BC had high-risk ACA. 3-year survival after emergence of high-risk ACA was 48%, after emergence of low-risk ACA 92%. At low blast levels (1-15%), high-risk ACA showed an increased hazard to die (ratios: 3.66 in blood; 6.84 in marrow) compared to no ACA in contrast to low-risk ACA. This effect was not observed anymore at blast increases to 20-30% (Figure). 38 patients with high-risk ACA died, 36 with known causes of death which were almost exclusively BC (n=26, 72%) and progression-related transplantation (n=8, 22%). Only 2 patients died of CML-unrelated causes. Conclusions. High-risk ACA herald death by BC already at low blast levels and may help to define CML end phase in a subgroup of patients at an earlier time than is possible with current blast thresholds. Cytogenetic monitoring is indicated when signs of progression surface and response to therapy is unsatisfactory. More intensive therapy may be indicated at emergence of high-risk ACA.

    Final Evaluation of Randomized CML-Study IV: 10-Year Survival and Evolution of Terminal Phase
    American Society of Hematology ; 2017
    In:  Blood Vol. 130, No. Suppl_1 ( 2017-12-07), p. 897-897

    Abstract: Background Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)-study IV was designed to explore whether treatment with imatinib (IM) at 400mg/day (n=400) could be optimized by doubling the dose (n=420), adding IFN (n=430) or cytarabine (n=158) or using IM after IFN-failure (n=128). Methods From July 2002 to March 2012, 1551 newly diagnosed patients in chronic phase were randomized into a 5-arm study. The study was powered to detect a survival difference of 5% at 5 years. The impact of patients' and disease factors on survival was prospectively analyzed. At the time of evaluation, at least 62% of patients still received imatinib, 26.2% were switched to 2nd generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Results After a median observation time of 9.5 years, 10-year overall survival was 82%, 10-year progression-free survival 80% and 10-year relative survival 92%. In spite of a faster response with IM800mg, the survival difference between IM400mg and IM800mg was only 3% at 5 years. In a multivariate analysis, the influence on survival of risk-group, major-route chromosomal aberrations, comorbidities, smoking and treatment center (academic vs. other) was significant in contrast to any form of initial treatment optimization. Patients that reached the response milestones 3, 6 and 12 months, had a significant survival advantage of about 6% after 10 years regardless of therapy. The progression probability to blast crisis was 5.8%. Blast crisis was proceeded by high-risk additional chromosomal aberrations. Conclusions For responders, monotherapy with IM400mg provides a close to normal life expectancy independent of the time to response. Survival is more determined by patients' and disease factors than by initial treatment selection. Although improvements are also needed for refractory disease and blast crisis, more life-time can currently be gained by carefully addressing non-CML determinants of survival.

    Abstract: 7049 Background: It is unclear whether IM 400 mg is the optimum choice for the successful treatment of CML. Treatment optimization was therefore attempted. Methods: From July 2002 to March 2012, 1551 newly diagnosed patients in chronic phase (CP) were randomized into a 5-arm study to analyze 2 IM doses and 3 combinations. 1536 patients were evaluable, 400 for IM 400 mg, 420 for IM 800 mg, 430 for IM + Interferon (IFN), 158 for IM + Ara C and 128 for IM after IFN. Recruitment to the latter two arms was stopped after a pilot phase. Results: 10-year overall survival (OS) of all patients was 82%, 10-year progression free survival (PFS) 80%. 10-year OS was 80% with IM 400 mg, 79% with IM 800 mg, 84% with IM + IFN, 84% with IM + Ara C and 79% with IM after IFN. The differences were not significant. 10-year PFS was 80% with IM 400mg, 77% with IM 800mg, 83% with IM + IFN, 82% with IM + Ara C and 75% with IM after IFN. The differences were not significant either. Survival with any treatment was not significantly different from IM 400mg at any risk level by any risk score (Euro Sokal, EUTOS, ELTS). 87 patients progressed to blast crisis (BC). The 10-year cumulative incidence of BC was 5.8% (95% CI: 4.7%; 7.1%) equally distributed across treatment arms. Most BC occurred in the first 2 years. Median survival after BC was 7.9 months across treatment arms. 275 patients have died, 23 after stem cell transplantation in first CP. Two thirds of deaths were unrelated to CML. Incidence of death due to CML by competing risk analysis with death unrelated to CML as competing risk was not different between the 5-treatment arms. 10-year relative survival probability was 92% when compared to matched general population data. Patients reaching the cytogenetic or molecular response landmarks according to European LeukemiaNet criteria ( 〈 10% BCR-ABL IS at 3 months, 〈 1% BCR-ABL IS or complete cytogenetic remission at 6 months, 〈 0.1% BCR-ABL IS (MMR) at 12 months) had a significantly better survival than those not reaching the landmarks regardless of therapy. Conclusions: In conclusion, outcome of CML is currently more determined by prognostic markers than by choice of therapy. IM400 mg remains an excellent choice for initial therapy of CP-CML. Clinical trial information: NCT00055874.
