CML indicates chronic myeloid leukemia; CI, confidence interval; DAS, dasatinib; IM, imatinib mesylate; CHR, complete hematologic response; and CCyR, complete cytogenetic response.

*

One patient randomized to DAS received IM 400; this patient achieved CHR (confirmed), was in CCyR at 12 months, and remains alive without report of CHR at 35 months; but did not achieve 3-log molecular response in 12 months (1.34-log at 90 days, 1.73 log at 174 days, 2.05 log at 266 days, 2.39 log at 363 days).

Two-sided P value from the Fisher exact test.

Based on blood specimens collected 295-406 days after randomization.
