Key clinical point: Bosutinib is effective in patients with Philadelphia chromosome–positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (Ph+ CML-CP) resistant/intolerant to prior therapy across age groups and the Charlson Comorbidity Index score without the age component (mCCI) scores.

Major finding: A substantial proportion of patients attained or maintained molecular response across age groups and mCCI scores molecular response. Older patients and those with mCCI 4 showed a trend towards higher rates of grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events.

Study details: The data come from the ongoing, phase 4, single-arm, open-label BYOND study examining the safety and efficacy of bosutinib.

Disclosures: The study was sponsored by Pfizer. No data available regarding conflicts of interest.
