Résumé
Accelerated phase (AP) CML at onset and have poorer prognosis than CP-CML. We hypothesize that off-license use of second generation TKI (TKI2) as front-line therapy might counterbalance this poor prognosis, with limited toxicity. In "real-life" conditions, newly diagnosed patients meeting the ELN cytological criteria for AP-CML or harboring ACA and treated with first-line TKI2 were included in this retrospective multicenter observational study. We enrolled 69 patients [69.5 % male, median age 49.5 years, median follow-up 43.5 months], segregated into hematologic AP [HEM-AP (n = 32)] and cytogenetically defined AP [ACA-AP (n = 37)]. Hematologic parameters were worse in HEM-AP [spleen size (p = 0.014), PB basophils (p < .001), PB blasts (p < .001), PB blasts+promyelocytes (p < .001), low hemoglobin levels (p < .001)]. Dasatinib was initiated in 56 % patients in HEM-AP and in 27 % in ACA-AP, nilotinib in 44 % and 73 % respectively. Response and survival do not differ, regardless of the TKI2: 81 % vs 84.3 % patients achieved CHR, 88 % vs 84 % CCyR, 73 % vs 75 % MMR respectively. The estimated 5-year PFS 91.5 % (95%CI: 84.51-99.06 %) and 5-year OS 96.84 % (95%CI: 92.61-100 %). Only BM blasts (p < 0.001) and BM blasts+promyelocytes (p < 0.001) at diagnosis negatively influenced OS. TKI2 as front-line therapy in newly diagnosed AP-CML induce excellent responses and survival, and counterbalance the negative impact of advanced disease phase.
