About this study

Official title: Association of Adverse Events in the Real World With Treatment Adjustments, and Burden of AEs in Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of adverse events (AEs) experienced by chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and evaluate their impact on treatment adjustments as well as the burden of AEs on healthcare resource use (HRU) and costs.

This study used real-world administrative claims data from the PharMetrics Plus database. AEs of interest were selected based on information obtained from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Clinical Practice Guidelines, Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Version 1. 2024 and clinical inputs. Given the nature of claims data, only AEs of interest that required medical attention (i.e., resulted in a claim record) were captured in this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Leukemia, Chronic Myeloid, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 1 site in United States.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

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?

Number of Patients With AEs of Interest During the Study Period Among Those Without the Specific Event During the Baseline Period (time frame: Up to approximately 7 years and 3 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 3 Sep 2025.
