Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Although allogeneic stem cell transplantation is curative in CML, evidence of the BCR-ABL oncogene at low levels is still found in long-term follow-up of survivors. Such low levels of BCR-ABL post-transplant which do not fulfill criteria for molecular relapse are monitored regularly and considered to be suppressed by the GVL effect. Treatment with donor lymphocyte infusions is only instituted when quantifiable BCR-ABL transcript levels rise steadily, indicative of a true molecular relapse . Similarly, BCR-ABL is still detectable in the majority of CML patients treated with imatinib who achieve complete cytogenetic response, although the amount of BCR-ABL transcripts seem to decline with longer follow-up. With 5 years follow-up of CML patients at CP who received imatinib, the estimated cumulative best rates of complete hematologic response and complete cytogenetic response were 98 percent and 87 percent, respectively10. For the minority of CP-CML patients who do not respond satisfactorily to imatinib, second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors are now the recommended next line of treatment. A major question facing clinicians is whether imatinib and the other more pharmacologically potent second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors;can suppress the CML clone at the leukemic stem cell level as effectively as allogeneic stem cell transplantation. This protocol is designed to scientifically compare the treatment responses of patients who are treated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation with patients who receive imatinib or second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The primary endpoint of this trial will be the proportion of patients who have detected minimal residual disease (DMRD) in primitive CD34 plus progenitor subpopulations no earlier than 60 days from the onset of their respective treatments.
