Progression to AP/BC or death due to CML while on core study treatment. Estimated 3-y rates of progression-free survival in ENESTnd were previously reported (99.3%, 98.7%, and 95.2% for nilotinib 300 mg twice daily, nilotinib 400 mg twice daily, and imatinib, respectively; P = .0059 and .0185 for nilotinib 300 mg twice daily and nilotinib 400 mg twice daily, respectively, vs imatinib).11 

Confirmed loss of MMR was defined as BCR-ABLIS >0.1%, with a fivefold or more rise in BCR-ABL ratio from the lowest value achieved up to that time point, confirmed by a duplicate analysis of the same sample and by another PCR sample analyzed ≥4 weeks later.

Patients later progressed to AP/BC on treatment.

§

Patients later discontinued due to suboptimal response.

||

Confirmed loss of CCyR was defined as 2 cytogenetic assessments ≥4 weeks apart with Ph+ >0%, regardless of the number of metaphases analyzed.
