Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Major Cytogenetic Response (MCyR) at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    Cytogenetic response was based on the prevalence of Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) metaphases among cells in metaphase on a bone marrow sample (aspirate/biopsy). MCyR was defined as Complete CyR (CCyR; 0% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow) or Partial CyR (PCyR; >0% to 35% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow).

Secondary outcomes

  1. MCyR at Any Time Prior to Crossover

    Time frame: Baseline (within 4 weeks of Day 1), every 12 weeks until crossover or off-study timepoints. Restricted to precrossover measurements.

    Cytogenetic response was based on the prevalence of Ph+ metaphases among cells in metaphase on a bone marrow sample (aspirate/biopsy). MCyR was defined as CCyR (0% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow) or PCyR (>0% to 35% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow).

  2. Duration of MCyR at 12 Months and 18 Months

    Time frame: 12 months, 18 months

    Percentage of participants who achieved MCyR and did not progress at 12 and 18 months.

  3. Duration of MCyR at 24 Months

    Time frame: 24 Months

    Percentage of participants who achieved MCyR and did not progress at 24 months.

  4. Time to MCyR Prior to Crossover

    Time frame: Baseline (within 4 weeks of Day 1), every 12 weeks, at crossover or off-study timepoints; restricted to precrossover measurements.

    Median time from first dosing date to date of MCyR

  5. Complete Hematologic Response (CHR) at Any Time Prior to Crossover

    Time frame: Baseline (within 4 weeks of Day 1), weekly until Week 12 and then every 12 weeks until crossover or off-study; restricted to precrossover measurements.

    Participants achieving CHR prior to crossover. CHR=all of the following criteria: white blood cell count ≤ institutional upper limit of normal; platelets < 450,000/mm³; no blasts or promyelocytes in peripheral blood; < 5% myelocytes plus metamyelocytes in peripheral blood; peripheral blood basophils ≤ 20%; no extramedullary involvement. Confirmed CHR is defined as CHR maintained at least 4 weeks after first documented at ≥ Day 14. Failure to maintain criteria of CHR was defined by 2 or more consecutive records of non-response.

  6. Duration of Complete Hematologic Response (CHR)

    Time frame: 12 months, 24 months

    Percentage of participants who achieved CHR and did not progress at specified time points. CHR=all of the following criteria: white blood cell count ≤ institutional upper limit of normal; platelets < 450,000/mm³; no blasts or promyelocytes in peripheral blood; < 5% myelocytes plus metamyelocytes in peripheral blood; peripheral blood basophils ≤ 20%; no extramedullary involvement. Confirmed CHR is defined as CHR maintained at least 4 weeks after first documented at ≥ Day 14. Failure to maintain criteria of CHR was defined by 2 or more consecutive records of non-response.

  7. Time to CHR Prior to Crossover

    Time frame: Baseline (within 4 weeks of Day 1), weekly until Week 12, then every 12 weeks until crossover or off-study; restricted to precrossover measurements.

    Median time from first dosing date to date of CHR. CHR=all of the following criteria: white blood cell count ≤ institutional upper limit of normal; platelets < 450,000/mm³; no blasts or promyelocytes in peripheral blood; < 5% myelocytes plus metamyelocytes in peripheral blood; peripheral blood basophils ≤ 20%; no extramedullary involvement. Confirmed CHR is defined as CHR maintained at least 4 weeks after first documented at ≥ Day 14. Failure to maintain criteria of CHR was defined by 2 or more consecutive records of non-response.

  8. Major Molecular Response (MMR)

    Time frame: Pretreatment, then after every 4 weeks for 12 weeks, then after every 12 week period out to 2 years; restricted to precrossover measurements.

    Number of participants Achieving MMR. MMR is defined as ≤3 log reduction (ie, international ratio ≤0.1), in BCR-ABL levels from the standardized baseline value of BCR-ABL: Control Gene ratio. The international ratio is obtained by multiplying BCR-ABL: Control gene ratio by the lab-specific conversion factor.

Confirmed CHR is defined as CHR maintained at least 4 weeks after first documented at ≥ Day 14. Failure to maintain criteria of CHR was defined by 2 or more consecutive records of non-response.

  10. Cytogenetic Response After Crossover

    Time frame: every 12 week period out to 2 years and off-study timepoints; restricted to postcrossover measurements

    Cytogenetic response was based on the prevalence of Ph+ metaphases among cells in metaphase on a bone marrow sample (aspirate/biopsy). MCyR was defined as Complete CyR (0% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow) or Partial CyR (>0% to 35% Ph+ cells in metaphase in bone marrow).

    Time frame: Continuously from baseline through 2 years

    AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition regardless of causal relationship with treatment. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence at any dose that: results in death; is life-threatening; requires or prolongs inpatient hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability; is cancer; is congenital anomaly/birth defect; results in drug dependency/abuse; is an important medical event. Graded by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0. (1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe, 4=Life-threatening/disabling, 5=Death)

  12. Health-Related Quality of Life Prior to Crossover

    Time frame: Every 4 weeks for the first 24 weeks, then every 12 weeks for the remainder of treatment. Last questionnaire was to be completed at first follow-up visit after off-study date.

    Health-related quality of life as measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G). FACT-G=27 questions in 4 domains: physical, social/family, emotional, & functional well-being (PWB, SWB, EWB, FWB). Higher scores=better health-related quality of life. Total Score change of 7 or more=minimal clinical important change; PWB, EWB, & FWB score change of 3 or more, & SWB score change of 2 or more=minimal clinical important change.

  13. Blood Sample Collection for Pharmacokinetic (PK) Analysis of Dasatinib

    Time frame: Day 8: pretreatment trough sample, a sample between 30 minutes and 3 hours following treatment, a sample between 5 and 8 hours following treatment, and a sample at 12 hours, prior to the next dose.
