Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percent of Patients Achieving Stable Disease (SD)
During the first 4 months

Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for Partial Response nor sufficient increase to qualify for Progression Disease, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameter since the treatment started.

Percent of Patients Achieving Partial Response (PR)
during the first 4 months

The primary efficacy variable was defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall response of CR by Week 16/Month 4 based on local assessment according to RECIST (Version 1.0). This is an at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter.

Percent of Patients Achieving Complete Response (CR)
during the first 4 months

Complete response (CR) is the Disappearance of all target lesions.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) From Central Radiology Review Based on Primary Analysis (Data Cut-off: June, 2008)
Up to 16 months

Progression-free survival (PFS) is the time from date of randomization to the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause. If a participant has not had an event, progression-free survival is censored at the time of last adequate tumor assessment. Progression is defined according to Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (modified RECIST) criteria as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, worsening of the non-target lesions or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) From Local Investigator's Assessment Based on Treatment Crossover Analysis Set
Up to 34 months

PFS is defined as the time from the first date of cross-over to nilotinib therapy from the control arm to the date of the first observation of documented disease progression. Tumor assessment was based on the local investigator's measurement using Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (modified RECIST) criteria. Progression is defined according to modified RECIST criteria as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, worsening of the non-target lesions or the appearance of one or more new lesions.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Adverse events were reported from enrolment until 30 days after last dose of study treatment, up to approximately 10.3 years.

Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) (any AE regardless of seriousness), serious adverse events (SAEs), Fatal SAEs and treatment related AEs.

Safety and tolerability of nilotinib either as single agent or in combination with Imatinib
AE monitored continuously from day 1 cycle 1 to the study completion visit; safety laboratory and cardiac safety monitored every 3 treatment cycles (every 3 months) from day 1 cycle 1 to the study completion visit

Assessed by AE evaluation, including safety laboratory and cardiac safety (ECG, cardiac enzymes, ECHO) measures.

ArmTypeDescription
NilotinibEXPERIMENTALnilotinib 400 mg twice daily (bid).
Control/cross-over to NilotinibACTIVE_COMPARATORIn core study phase, patients in this arm received Best Supportive Care (BSC) with or without imatinib or sunitinib at the last tolerated dose or at the investigator's choice until documented disease progression followed by cross-over to nilotinib arm. Patients entering the extension study on this control arm were permitted to cross over to nilotinib arm only upon documented disease progression.
Monotherapy: AMN107EXPERIMENTALinitial dose of imatinib (dose level 1) was 400 mg bid was administered orally on a continuous daily schedule and was not escalated during the study
Combination Therapy: AMN107 + ImatinibACTIVE_COMPARATORsix possible doses of Nilotinib (100 mg once daily (qd), 200 mg qd, 400 mg qd, 200 mg bid, 300 mg bid, and 400 mg bid). four possible doses of Imatinib (0 mg, 400 mg qd, 600 mg qd, and 400 mg bid).the initial dose of nilotinib (dose level 1) was 200 mg qd and could have been escalated up to 400 mg bid
