5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in imatinib induced CHR are randomized between imatinib 400 mg daily and imatinib 400 mg daily + PegIntron 30 ug weekly. Primary endpoint: To compare at 12 months between the treatment arms the rate of Major Molecular Response (=99,9% tumour reduction) at 12 months
Detailed Description
130 patients registered, 112 randomized. 56 pats in each treatment arm. 12 months study duration. Rate of Major Molecular Response was at 12 months 53 vs 82 % (p=0.002) in favour of the combination arm.
