ABL Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) Are Associated with Increased Rho-Associated Kinase (ROCK) Activity That May Contribute to Vascular Toxicity in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)
ConclusionsWe found that patients on 2nd and 3rd generation TKIs have higher leukocyte ROCK activity compared to those not receiving TKIs, and higher leukocyte ROCK activity in patients on Dasatinib compared with patients receiving Imatinib. These results are consistent with the known lower-risk of cardiovascular side-effects observed with Imatinib in comparison to the next generation ABL TKIs. Limitations include small sample size and heterogeneity in the patient population in terms of age, cardiovascular risk factors, specific TKI used, and total duration and sequencing of TKI agents. The study continues to accrue CML su...

Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Patients with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: A Single Institution Retrospective Study
Discussion: Our limited data suggests that use of DOACs in patients with MPN is feasible with an acceptable balance between risk of hemorrhage and recurrent thrombosis. Additional data on long term outcomes of DOACs in MPNs are needed.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Real-World Comparisons of Cardiovascular Events between Different Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Among Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
CONCLUSION: CP-CML patients treated with different TKIs (ponatinib, bosutinib, imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib) did not have different incidence of cardiovascular events (MACE, AOEs, VTEs) in this small cohort of real-world patients with ≥6-month of follow-up. The results were consistent among patients with prior use of one and two TKI types.DisclosuresLevy: Takeda (Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.): Consultancy. Xie: STATinMED Research: Employment.

Asciminib, a Specific Allosteric BCR-ABL1 Inhibitor, in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Carrying the T315I Mutation in a Phase 1 Trial
We report results from the largest cohort: pts with confirmed T315I mut at screening (tested locally by Sanger sequencing) and treated with asciminib 200 mg BID, which showed the most robust efficacy (data cutoff: April 30, 2018).At the data cutoff, treatment was ongoing in 23/24 pts (95.8%) (Table); 1 pt (4.2%) had ended treatment. Median duration of follow-up and asciminib exposure were both 28.5 wk (range, 0.1-74.7 wk). Most pts had received multiple prior TKIs, and PON was the most recent TKI for 12/24 (50.0%). Pts who were PON naive had underlying conditions, such as CV risk factors. Eight of 24 pts achieved MMR by 24...

Therapy-free remission in chronic myeloid leukemia: possible mechanism.
Authors: Gale RP, Hochhaus A Abstract Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) can be cured using tyrosine kinase-inhibitors (TKIs) when cure is defined as achieving a life-expectancy similar or even better than sex- and age-matched persons without CML. Most deaths in persons with CML are now from non-leukemia-related causes including heart disease, diabetes other cancers and stroke. Contrary to expectation, 40-50 percent of persons with CML treated for a few years with TKIs and who achieve a deep molecular response can stop TKI-therapy without leukemia recurrence for several years, some possibly indefinitely. Consequently, ...

Cardiovascular Events After Exposure to Nilotinib in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Long-term Follow-up
Conclusion The incidence of CVEs and the frequency of asymptomatic PAD in this population was low, and CVEs were associated with cardiovascular risk factors. Aggressive risk factor modification and applying standard definitions for measuring cardiovascular outcomes might have contributed to the findings. Further prospective and adequately powered studies are needed to explore the effect of the cardiovascular risk profile on CVEs in CML patients taking nilotinib. Micro-Abstract The present study evaluated the incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) in 63 chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients after long-term exposure to ...

Elevated Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Patients With Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Seen in Community-based Oncology Practices in the United States
Conclusion The increased risk of CVD observed in this real-world analysis of CML patients underscores the importance of current NCCN® recommendations to consider CV risk when selecting TKIs. Teaser Guidelines recommend that comorbidities, including CVD, be considered when selecting TKIs for the treatment of CML. An increased risk of CVD and its risk factors in CML patients treated by community-based US oncologists was identified in a real-world analysis of an EMR database (N=1,639). These results underscore the importance of current NCCN® recommendations to consider CV risk when selecting TKIs.

Intracranial stenting for nilotinib treatment-associated cerebrovascular stenosis in chronic myeloid leukemia.
Authors: Ozaki T, Nakamura H, Izutsu N, Masaie H, Ishikawa J, Kinoshita M Abstract One of the second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), nilotinib, is increasingly used for imatinib-resistant or intolerant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Nilotinib is considered well tolerated with few side effects including hyperglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia and elevated levels of pancreatic enzymes. However, there is growing evidence that nilotinib accelerates atherosclerosis and causes peripheral arterial occlusive disease such as stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA) and cardiovascular diseases. Herein, we report a ca...

Analysis of adverse events associated with dasatinib and nilotinib treatments in chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia patients outside clinical trials.
Abstract We analyzed adverse events (AEs) in 201 chronic phase CML patients treated with nilotinib (n = 120) or dasatinib (n = 81) as first- or second-line therapy. The dasatinib group had significantly higher grade 3-4 AEs compared to the nilotinib group (22 vs. 54%, p < 0.001), and had more frequent dose reduction, interruption, and discontinuation (p < 0.001, p = 0.004, and p = 0.006, respectively). Of 59 patients who discontinued treatment, 47 (80%) discontinued treatment due to AEs; 50% of the AEs causing drug discontinuation were of grade 2 severity. Compared to the second-line setting, dis...

Cardiovascular Complications of Targeted Therapies for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Opinion statementThe development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) dramatically changed the treatment landscape for many different cancers including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). With the introduction of imatinib, the first TKI developed and approved to effectively treat CML, patient survival has increased dramatically and, in some cases, this fatal cancer can be managed as a chronic disease. Since the approval of imatinib in 2002, four additional TKIs have been developed to treat this disease including the second-generation TKIs nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib and the third-generation TKI ponatinib. Despite their...

Mortality and Vascular Events Among Elderly Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Retrospective Analysis of Linked SEER-Medicare Data
Conclusion Elderly patients with CML had greater mortality and greater rates of MI, stroke, PE, and PAD than did noncancer patients. The event rates were not elevated among the TKI-treated (primary imatinib) patients, suggesting that the VE risk in these patients with CML was driven primarily by the underlying factors associated with CML. Micro-Abstract Tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) can be associated with vascular events (VEs). We examined the event rates and mortality among elderly patients with and without CML using linked cancer registry and Medicare claims data from 2003 t...
