Nilotinib vs Imatinib in Adult Patients With Philadelphia (Ph+) Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Chronic Phase (CML-CP) (ENEST)

November 4, 2011 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A Phase III Randomized, Open- Label Multi-center Study of Nilotinib Versus Imatinib in Adult Patients With Ph+ Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Chronic Phase (CML-CP) Who Have a Suboptimal Cytogenetic Response (CyR) on Imatinib

In this study, the efficacy and safety of nilotinib 400 mg twice daily, will be compared with imatinib 400 mg twice daily in patients with a suboptimal response to imatinib for their Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP).

Detailed Description

This trial was to evaluate the CCyR rate at 12 months of nilotinib therapy when compared to imatinib treatment in patients with suboptimal response to imatinib. The patients were stratified by prior duration of initial imatinib treatment, and were randomized to receive either 400 mg/twice daily of continuous nilotinib or imatinib treatment. The first stratum patients were treated with imatinib = 6 to < 12 months and having at least a minimal cytogenetic, but no partial cytogenetic response; and the second stratum patients were treated with imatinib = 12 months to < 18 months and having partial cytogenetic response (PCyR), but no CCyR.

  • Patients who have achieved partial or complete cytogenetic response and lost that response prior to entering the study.
  • Prior treatment with greater than 400 mg/day imatinib.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Cytogenetic Response Rate(CCyR) in Patients Who Had a Suboptimal Cytogenetic Response on Imatinib
Time Frame: 12 months
Due to early termination of the trial, the number of patients was too small and imbalanced and therefore analysis was not performed.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Durable Complete Cytogenetic Response Rate
Time Frame: 24 months
Due to early termination of the trial, the number of patients was too small and imbalanced and therefore analysis was not performed.
24 months
