Background: Off-target effects in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are associated with cardiovascular toxicity. Hypertension represents an important cardiovascular complication and, if not appropriately managed, can contribute to developing thrombotic events. Third-generation TKI ponatinib is associated with hypertension development, and its use is more restricted than in the past. Few data are reported for second-generation TKI, nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib. The aim of this article was to evaluate with a systematic review and meta-analysis the real incidence of hypertension in CML patients treated with second- or third-generation TKI.Methods: The PubMed database, Web of Science, Scopus, and ClinicalTrials.gov were systematically searched for studies published between January 1, 2000, and January 30, 2021; the following terms were entered in the database queries: Cardiovascular, Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, CML, Tyrosine kinases inhibitor, TKI, and Hypertension. The study was carried out according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement.Results: A pooled analysis of hypertension incidence was 10% for all new-generation TKI, with an even higher prevalence with ponatinib (17%). The comparison with the first-generation imatinib confirmed that nilotinib was associated with a significantly increased risk of hypertension (RR 2; 95% CI; 1.39-2.88, I2=0%, z=3.73, p=0.0002). The greatest risk was found with ponatinib (RR 9.21; 95% CI; 2.86-29.66, z=3.72, p=0.0002).Conclusion: Hypertension is a common cardiovascular complication in CML patients treated with second- or third-generation TKI.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the frontline therapy for BCR-ABL (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). A systematic meta-analysis of 43 peer-reviewed studies with 10,769 CML patients compared the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse events (GI AEs) in a large heterogeneous CML population as a function of TKI type. Incidence and severity of nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea were assessed for imatinib, dasatinib, bosutinib, and nilotinib. Examination of combined TKI average GI AE incidence found diarrhea most prevalent (22.5%), followed by nausea (20.6%), and vomiting (12.9%). Other TKI GI AEs included constipation (9.2%), abdominal pain (7.6%), gastrointestinal hemorrhage (3.5%), and pancreatitis (2.2%). Mean GI AE incidence was significantly different between TKIs (p < 0.001): bosutinib (52.9%), imatinib (24.2%), dasatinib (20.4%), and nilotinib (9.1%). Diarrhea was the most prevalent GI AE with bosutinib (79.2%) and dasatinib (28.1%), whereas nausea was most prevalent with imatinib (33.0%) and nilotinib (13.2%). Incidence of grade 3 or 4 severe GI AEs was ≤3% except severe diarrhea with bosutinib (9.5%). Unsupervised clustering revealed treatment efficacy measured by the complete cytogenetic response, major molecular response, and overall survival is driven most by disease severity, not TKI type. For patients with chronic phase CML without resistance, optimal TKI selection should consider TKI AE profile, comorbidities, and lifestyle.

Introduction. BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors are currently used to successfully treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Drug therapy is carried out in a continuous daily mode throughout the patient’s life. Treatment with this group of drugs is associated with specific dermatological adverse events (dAE), which can lead to a change in the regimen of effective, vital therapy for CML patients.Purpose. To study the characteristics of dermatological adverse events, the severity and influence on the quality of life of BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors.Patients and methods. The observational study included 93 patients. The clinical manifestations of dAE, their severity were evaluated, their photographs and pathomorphological studies of skin biopsy samples were performed, cases of dose reduction or drug withdrawal due to dAE were recorded. The quality of life of patients with dAE was determined based on the assessment of the dermatological index of quality of life.Results. Imatinib therapy was accompanied by a maculopapular rash in 43.3 % of patients, nilotinib caused follicular keratosis in 12.9 % of patients. In 3.2 % of patients, dasatinib caused hyperpigmentation, in 2.2 % of patients lichenoid rashes of the II degree occurred during treatment with bosutinib. Ponatinib treatment was followed by dAE in 9.7 % of patients. All dAE have an impact on the quality of life of patients, but the maculopapular rash and dyskeratotic changes are most pronounced. In a pathomorphological study, these dAE have specific features corresponding to immuno-mediated dermatitis.Conclusions. The most frequent and pronounced dAE that significantly affect the quality of life of patients with CML are a maculopapular rash and dyskeratotic skin changes: psoriasiform and lichenoid dermatitis. Clinical and pathomorphological characteristics of skin reactions make it possible in the future to determine effective methods of supportive therapy for dAE.
