Pulmonary Hypertension (PHT) and Pleural Effusion During Dasatinib Therapy For CML Frequently Lead To Drug Withdrawal

Abstract: Aim/Background Imatinib, a tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI), first line therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) for over a decade, has an established side-effect profile. Clinical trials with 2nd generation (2G) TKIs have significantly deeper and faster cytogenetic and major molecular responses (MMR), though impact on long-term toxicity and survival remains to be determined. Dasatinib (DAS), an oral 2G TKI 350x more potent than imatinib in vitro, is generally well tolera… Show more

“…Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare but serious dasatinib toxicity with the potential of occurring at any time after treatment is initiated (Montani et al, 2012;NCCN, 2014;Tatarczuch, Seymour, Creati, Januszewicz, & Burbury, 2013). The 2014 NCCN guidelines recommend evaluating patients for underlying cardiopulmonary disease (as no specific methodology is given, evaluation must be done per provider discretion) prior to and during dasatinib therapy and discontinuing dasatinib permanently in any patient with PAH (NCCN, 2014).…”
