What is the purpose of the study
This is a study to compare the tolerability of asciminib versus nilotinib for the treatment of newly diagnosed, previously untreated patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase (Ph+ CML-CP).
What will happen during the study
In this study, participants will be randomized into two groups and receive either oral asciminib 80 mg once daily or nilotinib 300 mg twice daily.
Key inclusion criteria
This study includes patients of all sexes who:
- are aged 18 years or older
- have been diagnosed with Philadelphia chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) within 3 months of study entry
- have evidence of a typical BCR::ABL1 transcript [e14a2 and/or e13a2] that can be quantified on standardized real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) by the central laboratory
- have an Eastern Co-Operative Group (ECOG) status of 0 or 1.
Further criteria may apply. Please discuss these with your doctor or study staff.
Key exclusion criteria
This study does not include patients who:
- have been treated previously for CML with any other anti-cancer agents including chemotherapy and/or biologic agents or prior stem cell transplant, with the exception of hydroxyurea and/or anagrelide.
- have known infiltration of the central nervous system (CNS) by malignant cells, as confirmed by cytopathology (a specialist diagnostic technique to examine cells)
- have impaired cardiac function or cardiac repolarization abnormality.
Further criteria may apply. Please discuss these with your doctor or study staff.
