Summary

The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to nilotinib for eligible patients diagnosed with relapsed or refractory Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

Detailed description

Currently, preliminary responses of nilotinib monotherapy in adults with refractory or relapsed Ph+ ALL show limited clinical benefit in this population of patients with a high unmet medical need. Remissions induced by imatinib are of short duration and resistance to imatinib represents a major clinical challenge. The exact benefit and role of nilotinib in this leukemia remains to be determined and requires further analysis. Until further data is available patients with Ph+ ALL should be treated with nilotinib through the Individual Patient Program.. Studies to date indicate that nilotinib may provide clinical benefit to Ph+ ALL patients and may represent a novel treatment option for these patients.
