About this study

Official title: A Phase 4 Study of Nilotinib in Korean Patients With Philadelphia Chromosome-positive Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Chronic Phase

ENESTKorea is a phase 4, multi-institutional, single-arm, open-label study investigating the efficacy and safety of nilotinib at the currently approved dose (300 mg twice daily) and its exposure-outcome relationship, in adult patients diagnosed as Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase.

Read the detailed description

Nilotinib is a second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor with improved efficacy compared to imatinib. However, there are still many patients for whom the therapeutic response is inadequate, or toxicity is limiting the treatment. Serum concentration of nilotinib was shown to affect time to response and progression in previous studies. Therefore, the investigators hypothesized that the optimal plasma level of nilotinib that is sufficient to achieve adequate clinical response while not generating major adverse events could be elucidated by the analysis of combined clinical and pharmacokinetic data.

ENESTKorea is a phase 4, multi-institutional, single-arm, open-label study investigating the efficacy and safety of nilotinib at the currently approved dose (300 mg twice daily), in adult patients diagnosed as Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). Plasma samples are collected every three months, for up to 12 months, to determine plasma nilotinib concentrations (PNCs). The primary endpoint is the cumulative rate of molecular response 4.5 (MR4.5; BCR-ABL1IS ≤ 0.0032%) by 24 months. Secondary endpoints include the cumulative rates of MR3 (BCR-ABLIS ≤ 0.1%) and MR4 (BCR-ABLIS ≤ 0.01%) by 12 and 24 months; time to MR3, MR4, and MR4.5; progression-free survival (PFS); overall survival (OS). Correlations between PNCs and clinical outcomes are also analyzed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nilotinib in people with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, Chronic Phase, run by Seoul National University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cumulative rate of molecular response 4.5 by 24 months (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03332511, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2017.
