About
The purpose of this study is to characterize the efficacy of ponatinib administered in 3 starting doses (45 mg, 30 mg, and 15 mg daily) in participants with CP-CML who are resistant to prior tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy or have T315I mutation, as measured by <=1 % Breakpoint Cluster Region-Abelson Transcript Level using International Scale (BCR-ABL1IS) at 12 months.
Full description
The drug being tested in this study is ponatinib. This study will characterize the safety and efficacy of ponatinib over a range of 3 starting doses.
The study will enroll 276 participants in 3 cohorts and each cohort will have 92 participants. All the participants will be randomized to receive once-daily oral administration of 1 of 3 starting doses of ponatinib:
The study is designed to consist of 2 periods: 24-cycle Main treatment period and optional treatment continuation period. Participants will be treated with their randomized dose of study drug in the Main Treatment Period until the occurrence of at least one of the following: absence of CHR by 3 months, absence of MCyR at 12 months, absence of <=1% BCR-ABL1IS at 12 months, loss of <=1% BCR-ABL1IS development of intolerance, or completion of all 24 cycles of treatment (whichever occurs first). Following completion of approximately 5 years or following early withdrawal, participants may enter into an optional treatment continuation period.
This multi-center trial will be conducted in the United States, United Kingdom, Republic of Korea, Spain, France, Taiwan, Australia, Canada, Italy, Chile, Japan, Germany, Argentina, Poland, Czech Republic, Denmark, Hong Kong, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Switzerland, and Sweden. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 96 months. Participants will make a final visit to the clinic approximately 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.

Inclusion criteria
Have chronic phase-chronic myelogenous leukemia/chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) and have received at least two prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies and have demonstrated resistance to treatment OR have documented history of presence of T315I mutation after receiving any number of prior TKI.
o] The diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) will be made using standard hematopathologic and cytogenetic criteria; CP-CML will be defined by all of the following: i <15% blasts in bone marrow ii <30% blasts plus promyelocytes in bone marrow iii <20% basophils in peripheral blood. iv >= 100*10^9/liter (L) platelets (>=100,000/mm^3). v No evidence of extramedullary disease except hepatosplenomegaly vi No prior diagnosis of AP-CML, and BP-CML o] Cytogenetic assessment at screening must demonstrate the BCR-ABL1 fusion by presence of the t(9;22) Philadelphia chromosome.
i Variant translocations are only allowed provided they meet inclusion criterion 1d.
o] Resistance to prior TKI therapy is defined as follows (participants must meet at least 1 criterion): i Three months after the initiation of prior TKI therapy: No cytogenetic response (>95% Ph+) or failure to achieve CHR or new mutation ii Six months after the initiation of prior TKI therapy: BCR-ABL1IS >10% and/or Ph+ >65% or new mutation iii Twelve months after the initiation of prior TKI therapy: BCR ABL1IS >10% and/or Ph+ >35% or new mutation iv At any time after the initiation of prior TKI therapy, the development of a new BCR-ABL1 kinase domain mutation(s) v At any time after the initiation of prior TKI therapy, the development of new clonal evolution vi At any time after the initiation of prior TKI therapy, the loss of CHR, or CCyR, or the confirmed loss of MMR in 2 consecutive tests, one of which has a BCR-ABL1IS transcript level of >=1% or new mutation o] >1% of BCR-ABL1IS as shown by real-time polymerase chain reaction

Have adequate renal function as defined by the following criterion:
o] Serum creatinine <=1.5*ULN for institution o] Estimated creatinine clearance >=30 milliliter per minute (mL/min) (Cockcroft-Gault formula)
Have adequate hepatic function as defined by the following criteria:
o] Total serum bilirubin <=1.5*ULN, unless due to Gilbert's syndrome o] Alanine transaminase (ALT) <=2.5*ULN, or <=5*ULN if leukemic infiltration of the liver is present o] Aspartate transaminase (AST) <=2.5*ULN, or <=5*ULN if leukemic infiltration of the liver is present

Have a negative pregnancy test documented prior to enrollment (for females of childbearing potential).
Agree to use a highly effective form of contraception with sexual partners from randomization through at least 4 months after the end of treatment (for female and male participants who are fertile).
Provide written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria
