Summary

To test whether increasing the dose of imatinib or combining it with IFNalpha or ara-C increases the rate of molecular response (as measured by the decrease in BCR-ABL transcripts after 12 months of treatment) in patients with previously untreated CML in chronic phase. To compare overall survival in a selected arm according to molecular response at 1 year from randomization with the reference arm.

Outcome

Met primary endpoint

paper The rate of a superior molecular response was significantly higher among patients receiving imatinib and peginterferon alfa-2a (30%) than among patients receiving 400 mg of imatinib alone (14%) (P=0.001). PMID 21175313 ↗
