Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of nilotinib and imatinib as frontline therapy in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase(CML-CP). Methods: Until December 31st 2016, 18 patients using nilotinib and 83 using imatinib were recruited in our study. The efficacy and safety of two groups were evaluated. Results: A total of 101 patients with CML-CP included 18 receiving nilotinib and 83 imatinib. The optimal response rates at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months in nilotinib and imatinib group were 88.9% (16/18) vs 57.3% (47/82) (P=0.012), 82.4% (14/17) vs 55.7% (44/79) (P=0.041), 9/12 vs 63.9% (39/61) (P=0.460), 6/9 vs 68.9% (31/45) (P=0.896) respectively. The optimal response rates by 3 months in low sokal risk group on nilotinib and imatinib were 9/9 vs 76.5%(26/34) (P=0.107), in intermediate and high sokal risk group were 7/8 vs 45.2%(14/31) (P=0.032). At the end of follow-up, the rate of major molecular response (MMR) in nilotinib group was 72.2%, which was higher than 56.6% in imatinib group (P=0.021). The rate of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) in nilotinib group was 100%, which was higher than 71.1% in imatinib group (P = 0.002). Progression free survival (PFS) rates in nilotinib and imatinib groups were 94.4% and 98.8% (P=0.019) respectively; whereas event free survival (EFS) rates were 88.9% and 48.2% (P=0.045). The incidence of drug related adverse reactions in nilotinib and imatinib was similar with only minor proportion of grade 3/4 adverse reactions. Conclusions: Nilotinib achieves a deeper molecular response in a shorter time than imatinib in newly diagnosed patients with CML-CP, especially in patients with high risk outcome. Good safety is obtained in both groups so as to ensure a long-term administration and improving prognosis.
