ABSTRACT

Background. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) into real-world clinical practice considerably improved the prognosis for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, during long-term follow-up, almost 1/2 and 2/3 of patients in the chronic phase (CP) discontinue TKI therapy of the first or second line, respectively. According to the Russian and International clinical guidelines, the third-line therapy should include allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). And yet, some patients on the third-line therapy achieve and sustain optimal response on long-term TKI administration. Up to now, no clear-cut prognostic factors of TKI efficacy in the third-line therapy have been identified. This creates a challenge for treatment decision making after the failures of two lines of TKI therapy.

Aim. To assess the efficacy of the third-line TKI therapy in real-world clinical practice and to identify the factors affecting the long-term therapy outcomes in CML-CP.

Materials & Methods. The retrospective study enrolled 73 CML-CP patients aged ≥ 18 years, treated with TKIs in the third-line at 5 specialized institutions in Saint Petersburg and Leningrad Region. Among the patients there were 26 men (35 %). The median age of the patients was 51 years (range 25–88 years).

Results. With the median (range) third-line TKI therapy duration of 14 (1–120) months, the rate of complete cytogenetic response (CCR) was 30 % (n = 22) in the total cohort. The median time before achieving CCR was 9 (4–25) months. With the median follow-up time from the beginning of third-line TKI therapy till the last visit of 25 (3–136) months, progression to accelerated phase or blast crisis was observed only in 13 (17 %) out of 73 patients. Death was reported in 26 % (n = 19) of cases, among them 5 patients whose death was not CML-associated. At the last visit, 13/73 (18 %) patients were still on third-line TKI therapy. Direct and long-term therapy outcomes, including achievement of CCR and assessment of overall and progression-free survivals, were significantly better in patients with any cytogenetic response (CR) than in those without it or without complete hematologic response.

Conclusion. The implementation of TKIs in the third-line CML-CP therapy seems to be suitable for patients with at least some CR, especially if an optimal donor of hematopoietic stem cells is unavailable or if the risk of severe allo-HSCT complications is too high.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, chronic phase, complete cytogenetic response, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, third-line therapy, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, minimal residual disease.

ABSTRACT

Background. A withdrawal of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with optimal response, especially in patients with drug toxicity, is a matter of current interest. According to the results of numerous clinical studies, the probability of sustaining treatment-free remission (TFR) in CML patients with deep molecular response (DMR) is about 40–60 %. Great attention has recently been paid to personalized therapy consisting in TKI dose modification aimed at reducing or preventing therapy adverse events. Many large retrospective studies showed that reduced TKI doses in CML patients with major molecular response (MMR) and DMR is a safe therapy option. The follow-up of patients receiving reduced TKI doses is also carried out under prospective clinical studies as a stage prior to therapy discontinuation. This approach shows that the probability of sustaining TFR after the stage of TKI dose reduction is about 70 % which is higher than that after the withdrawal of standard TKI doses.

Aim. To present the background, aim, and main objectives of the study as well as the design and expected results.

Materials & Methods. READIT-2020 (Russian prospective study of REduction And DIscontinuation Treatment of TKI) is a Russian prospective non-randomized clinical study with the main aim of developing a safe management regimen for CML patients with MMR and DMR, who receive reduced TKI doses, with subsequent follow-up in the period of TFR under the control of minimal residual disease. The study is going to enroll 100 patients. Each stage of the clinical study will include a regular molecular genetic monitoring at the central laboratory (National Research Center for Hematology, Moscow). The primary objective is to assess survival without MMR loss (BCR-ABL > 0.1 %) both on reduced TKI doses and during TFR. The primary endpoint is the follow-up period of 12 months after TKI discontinuation.

Trial Registration No.: NCT04578847 (Clinicaltrial.gov).

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, major molecular response, deep molecular response, adverse events.

ABSTRACT

The feasibility of treatment-free follow-up in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients is an important issue in the era of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). The clinical trials of TKI withdrawal in case of a stable deep molecular response prove the probability of sustaining molecular remission in 40–60 % of patients. Treatment-free remission (TFR), even under persistence of residual leukemia cells, suggests that there are special biologically determined mechanisms of tumor cell proliferation control, which are independent of BCR-ABL kinase activity. The search for factors determining differences in residual leukemia clone kinetics upon TKI withdrawal is an objective which is crucial for understanding TFR as a new biological phenomenon. The review provides worldwide evidence dealing with the study of immunological, genetic, and other biological mechanisms underlying the control of minimal residual disease upon TKI discontinuation in CML patients.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, treatment-free remission, deep molecular response, minimal residual disease.

ABSTRACT

The term “mastocytosis” refers to a group of rare heterogeneous disorders resulting from proliferation and accumulation of neoplastic mast cells in various organs. The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies these diseases into three types: cutaneous mastocytosis, systemic mastocytosis (SM), and mast cell sarcoma (MCS). Depending on the degree of aggressiveness SM can be indolent, smoldering, aggressive (ASM), or associated with another proliferative hematological disease of non-mast cell line (SM-AHD). SM also includes mast cell leukemia (MCL). Numerous studies confirm the prognostic value of the WHO classification. All mastocytosis patients require treatment aimed at reducing the symptoms of mast cell activation. In case of prognostically unfavorable types of mastocytosis, such as ASM, SM-AHD, MCL, and MCS, more intensive treatment methods should come into consideration, which include allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, cytoreductive therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), interferon-α, and cladribine. In the pathogenesis of mastocytosis, mutations in different KIT gene exons have a dominating role. Most common is KITD816V activating mutation (80–90 % of SM cases). Some of TKIs (imatinib mesylate and midostaurin) had been successfully used in clinical trials and were approved for treating prognostically unfavorable mastocytosis. However, in some patients exclusive TKI treatment does not result in long-lasting remission due to therapy resistance induced by KIT activating mutations as well as other additional somatic mutations and molecular changes. For the purpose of comparative analysis, the review provides the results of major clinical trials dealing with various methods of mastocytosis treatment.

Keywords: mast cells, mastocytosis, KITD816V mutation, targeted therapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, imatinib, midostaurin.

ABSTRACT

Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy results in deep molecular response (MR) in 60–70 % of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. However, despite high efficacy of TKIs, many patients experience drug toxicity during the treatment. According to clinical studies, the probability of sustaining off-treatment remission in CML patients with deep MR is about 40–60 %. Great attention has recently been paid to personalized therapy of chronic phase CML. It consists in TKI dose modification to reduce or prevent adverse events. Major retrospective studies proved that in patients with optimal response TKI reduced doses can be considered safe from the point of view of sustaining major and deep MRs achieved with standard TKI doses. Also, prospective clinical trials deal with the follow-up using TKI reduced doses as pre-withdrawal period. But up to now, the results of only 4 of such studies have been available. To take a closer look at long-term follow-up of CML patients receiving reduced doses of TKIs, prospective clinical trials need to be carried out. The present article reviews the results of main studies dealing with management of CML patients treated with TKI reduced doses.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, major molecular response, deep molecular response, adverse events, pharmacokinetics of tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

ABSTRACT

Aim. To study the impact of different clinical and biological factors on sustaining molecular remission after discontinuation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) therapy in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with a stable deep molecular response (MR).

Materials & Methods. The prospective multi-center trial on molecular remission sustainability after TKIs withdrawal, held from 2015 to 2019, enrolled 98 CML patients. The trial included patients with chronic phase CML treated with TKIs at least during 3 years and having a stable deep MR (≤ МО4; BCR-ABL < 0.01 %) during at least 2 years. Molecular monitoring was carried out every month during first 6 months after TKIs withdrawal, every 2 months during 0.5–1 year, and every 3 months after 1-year follow-up. In case of the loss of major MR (BCR-ABL > 0.1 %) therapy was reinitiated.

Results. Three-year molecular relapse-free survival was 51 % (95% confidence interval 41–61 %) in all patients, 25 % in patients with the failure of prior treatment discontinuation, and 53 % in patients who discontinued TKI therapy for the first time. According to univariate analysis, the following factors proved to be significant: persistance of deep MR, duration of therapy, and depth of MR. It was shown that TKI therapy duration, but not deep MR persistance, has independent prognostic value for the Russian population of CML patients. No significant differences were identified in 3-year molecular relapse-free survival in the groups of patients treated only with imatinib (55 %) compared with patients who received 2nd generation TKI (TKI2) as first-line (70 %; p = 0.26) and second-line (39 %; p = 0.09) therapy. However, duration of therapy in patients treated with TKI2 as first-line therapy was more than twice as short as in patients treated with imatinib as first-line therapy (median 41.5 vs. 96.4 months, respectively; p < 0.0001).

Conclusion. Longer therapy duration and MR depth (≤ MО4.5) before TKI withdrawal raise the probability of sustaining off-treatment remission. The study showed that molecular relapse-free survival does not significantly increase with the use of TKI2 as first-line treatment compared to imatinib. Nevertheless, TKI2 as first-line treatment enables to halve the duration of therapy needed to achieve comparable molecular relapse-free survival, as compared with imatinib.

ABSTRACT

Background. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) era is marked by a long-term favorable prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In this context CML patients of reproductive age are faced with major issues of family planning with due regard to the risk of TKI treatment interruption during pregnancy. Additionally, TKI impact is another potential risk to the fetus.

Aim. To develop differentiated approach to CML treatment during pregnancy.

Materials & Methods. Analysis includes literature data and clinical experience based on 166 pregnancies of 120 CML patients from CML Pregnancy Registry.

Results. Pregnancy planning is recommended after achieving stable and deep molecular response (with BCR-ABL > 0.01 %, IS) within the period of at least 2 years. At conception TKI therapy does not have to be interrupted. However, early pregnancy detection and TKI treatment interruption after pregnancy confirmation are of vital importance due to teratogenic risks. Furthermore, no TKI may be administered during organogenetic period, i.e. up to the 15th week of gestation. In the absence or loss of complete hematologic response and growth of BCR-ABL > 1 % after the 15th week of gestation imatinib or nilotinib administration is justified in the interest of pregnant patients taking into account limited transfer of these drugs through placenta. In the absence of complete hematologic response before the 15th week of gestation interferon-α can be administered. With BCR-ABL < 1 % patients can be either followed-up without therapy or they can receive interferon-α throughout pregnancy. Dasatinib, bosutinib, and other TKI are contraindicated at any stage of pregnancy. There are no special recommendations for childbirth, delivery is to be adapted to obstetric conditions. Breast feeding is not recommended because of the lack of practical evidence for its safety.

Conclusion. A regular molecular monitoring of BCR-ABL and hematologic status is indispensable, health condition of fetus should be continuously monitored as well. CML patient management should be conducted by cooperating hematologists and gynecologists.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, pregnancy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib.

ABSTRACT

Background. Current clinical guidelines on diagnosis and treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) define indications for substitution of first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) at therapy failure during different phases of disease progression.

Aim. To assess the efficacy of CML treatment with implementing the protocol of timely monitoring and switching to another TKI.

Materials & Methods. Patients were included into pilot prospective study РИТМ during 5 years. Data on 100 CML patients were analyzed. Therapy and monitoring were conducted according to the Federal clinical guidelines on CML diagnosis and therapy, 2013.

Results. Median follow-up after initiation of treatment was 46 months (range 12–74). Imatinib mesylate was administered as first-line therapy to 91 (91 %) patients, 9 (9 %) patients received 2nd generation TKI (TKI2). Therapy failure was registered in 31 (31 %) patients; 26 (84 %) of them were switched to TKI2. At the time of analysis 95 (95 %) patients were followed-up. Cumulative incidence of CML-associated mortality was 2 %. By the fifth year of follow-up cumulative probability of complete cytogenetic, major and deep molecular responses was 93 %, 88 % and 66 %, respectively.

Conclusion. CML treatment according to current guidelines yields the results comparable with those achieved by first-line TKI2 therapy. This approach reduces CML treatment costs and lowers the risk of TKI2-associated adverse events. Due to a high rate of deep molecular response the proportion of CML patients in remission without treatment can be increased in the future.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, monitoring, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, TKI switch.

ABSTRACT

In the present review the cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are discussed. It covers current views on pathogenesis of TKI cardiovascular toxicity. The pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is considered as a part of the so-called pathophysiological continuum, i.e. a complex of processes developing at the molecular and cellular levels before clinical symptoms of the above diseases occur. Cardiovascular toxicity of certain TKIs can contribute to progression of pathophysiological processes in CML patients. The study of mechanisms underlying cardiovascular complications of TKI-based therapy is essential for evaluating the risks of their development in each patient. Identification of CVD predictors during TKI-based therapy can allow to elaborate a scheme for cardiovascular monitoring and safe patient management under consideration of individual risks and to avoid severe life-threatening complications.

Keywords: chronic myeloid leukemia, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, adverse effects, cardiotoxicity, cardiovascular events.

ABSTRACT

Aim. To evaluate the clinical experience of bosutinib use for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with intolerance and resistance to other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), as well as to compare the obtained results with the data of clinical trials.

Materials & Methods. The analysis was conducted on case history records of 51 CML patients (25 men and 26 women; median age was 56 years, range 28–86). By the beginning of bosutinib therapy 37 chronic phase, 8 acceleration phase, and 6 blast crisis patients were included in the study. Bosutinib was administered as second–line TKI treatment in 10 patients, as third–line treatment in 18 patients, and as fourth–line treatment in 23 patients. The causes for switching to bosutinib were poor tolerance of previous TKI therapy in 21 patients and resistance to previous TKI therapy in 30 patients.

Results. The median duration of bosutinib treatment was 6 months (range 1–50). Bosutinib toxicity profile and its tolerance in common clinical practice corresponded to the data of clinical trials. Because of adverse events the therapy was discontinued only in 5 (10 %) patients. Complete hematological response was 88 % (persistent response was maintained in 76 % of patients); complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) was 39 %, (persistent response in 37 % of cases); major molecular response (MMR) was 31 % (it was confirmed in 25 % of patients during the last follow-up visit). The efficacy of bosutinib in the real clinical setting was slightly higher compared to the results of clinical trials. This difference was associated with a disease phase, a reason for withdrawal of the previous TKI, line of treatment, BCR–ABL mutations, and the form of them. The therapy was continued in 22 (43 %) patients, most of them reached stable optimal response, both CCyR and MMR.

Conclusion. Bosutinib appears to be an acceptable alternative to other TKIs having its specific mechanisms of action and adverse events. The efficacy and safety of bosutinib proved in routine clinical practice are sufficient to recommend it for use in national hematology.
