OBJECTIVETo evaluate the early hematologic, cytogenetic and molecular responses in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase（CML-CP）and initially treated with a generic imatinib（Xinwei）, manufactured by Jiansu Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd.
METHODS107 newly diagnosed patients of CML-CP, whose ages were above 18- year- old and who had never received any tyrosine kinase inhibitor（TKI）were treated with Xinwei 400 mg QD. The hematologic, cytogenetic and molecular responses were assessed at 3- and 6-month, and adverse effects were evaluated throughout the study.
RESULTS107 patients were treated with Xinwei for at least 3 months, 54 of them were treated for 6 months or more. At 3- month, the complete hematologic responses（CHR）rate were 98.1%（105/107）; 47/57（82.5%） patients achieved major cytogenetic response（MCyR）, and 20/57 （35.1%） patients complete cytogenetic response（CCyR）; BCR- ABLIS was ≤10% in 77/106 patients （72.6%）, 11 of them（10.4%）achieved major molecular response（MMR, BCR-ABLIS was ≤0.1%）. At 6-month, the CHR rate was 100%（54/54）; 28/39 patients（71.8%）achieved CCyR; BCR-ABLIS was ≤1% in 37/54 patients （68.5% ）, 18 of them （33.3% ） achieved MMR. The grade Ⅲ leukopenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia rates were 19.5%, 23.0% and 13.8%, respectively. No grade Ⅳ hematologic toxicity occurred. The common non- hematologic toxicities were edema（74.7%）, nausea（48.3%）, bone pain（42.5%）, rash（36.8%）, diarrhea（34.5%）, fever（23.0%）, cramp（11.5%）and impaired liver function （3.4%）. No patient experienced grade Ⅳ non- hematologic toxicity. No adverse effects related death occurred.
CONCLUSIONOur results revealed the excellent early haematology, cytogenetic and molecular responses and safety of Xinwei in treating patients with CML-CP.
