ere Asian and 4% were Hispanic. Thirty-six (47%) patients had failed treatment with imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib. Most patients had also received prior non-TKI treatments, most commonly hydroxyurea (54%), interferon (30%), and/or cytarabine (29%).
The efficacy endpoint was based on MCyR (adjudicated by a DMC).

Cytogenetic response eva luation is based on standard cytogenetic analysis (at least 20 metaphases).
Complete: 0% Ph+ cells, Partial > 0% to 35% Ph+ cells
The mean time to MCyR onset in the 14 patients was 3.5 months. The median duration of MCyR for the 14 patients was 12.5 months (Kaplan-Meier estimate).
14.2 Accelerated Phase CML (AP CML)
A total of 35 patients with accelerated phase CML were included in the efficacy analysis. The demographics were: median age was 63 years, 57% were male, 46% were 65 years of age or older, 68% were Caucasian, 23% were African-American, 3% were Asian and 3% were Hispanic. Twenty-two (63%) of 35 patients with accelerated phase had failed treatment with imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib. Most patients had also received prior non-TKI treatments, most commonly hydroxyurea (43%), interferon (31%), and/or cytarabine (29%). The efficacy endpoint was assessed based on MCyR and MaHR (complete hematologic response [CHR] or no evidence of leukemia [NEL]). The efficacy results for the patients with accelerated phase as adjudicated by the DMC are shown in Table 5.

MaHR is defined as complete hematologic response (CHR) or no evidence of leukemia (NEL): CHR - absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 109/liter, platelets ≥ 100 × 109/liter, no blood blasts, bone marrow blasts < 5%, no extramedullary disease; NEL - Morphologic leukemia-free state, defined as <5% bone marrow blasts.
The mean time to response onset in the 5 patients was 2.3 months. The median duration of MaHR for the 5 patients was 4.7 months (Kaplan-Meier estimate).
