Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patients who achieve and maintain major molecular response (MMR) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
Proportion of patients who achieve and maintain major molecular response (MMR) at 12 months using RQ-PCR test (Appendix II) using Chi-square test. The MMR is defined as ration of BCR-ABL to ABL (or other housekeeping gene) ≤ 0.1% on the international scale (MMR is equal to a 3-log reduction in the ratio of BCR-ABL1: ABL from a standardized median baseline value).
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the safety & tolerability of imatinib after 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months

In both cohorts, the safety & tolerability of imatinib after 12 months of treatment will be assessed by:

  • The number, type, severity and frequency of the adverse reactions particularly those described in the SmPC of the reference product.
  • Incidence of adverse events (AEs) & serious adverse events (SAEs).
  • AEs leading to permanent treatment discontinuation.
  • Clinically relevant changes in laboratory tests (according to laboratory reference ranges).
12 months
Progression free survival (PFS) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Event free survival (EFS) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Survival without blastic phase (BP) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Overall survival (OS) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Deep Molecular response (DMR) at 12 months
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
Treatment compliance
Time Frame: 12 months
Treatment compliance while on imatinib will be evaluated by identifying the frequency of not taking the medications as prescribed and the reason behind that based on the prescription pattern. The decision on non-compliance is based on the treating physician's judgment."
