Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Pregnant or lactating women, 2. Participation in another clinical trial with any investigative drug within 30 days prior to study enrolment, 3. Prior history of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation 4. Cardiovascular disease: • Stage II to IV congestive heart failure (CHF) as determined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification system for heart failure. • Myocardial infarction within the previous 6 months • Symptomatic cardiac arrhythmia requiring treatment 5. Individuals with another active malignancy 6. Patients at high risk or very high risk of arterio-veinous occlusive disease defined by European CVD score 7. Previously treated by 5-azacitidine or cytotoxic chemotherapy other than hydroxyurea 8.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine the overall survival of patients with CML-AP (cohort A) and CML-BC (cohort-B) treated with the combination ponatinib and 5-azacitidine by 2 years;Secondary Objective: A.To determine the safety of selected therapies B.To assess the rate of CHR C.To assess the cytogenetic response D.To assess the molecular response E.To assess the rate of reversion to chronic phase CML F.To estimate the duration of response, event-free survival. G.To investigate the relationship between clinical efficacy and biological markers: mutations and methylation status. H.To estimate the rate of patients bridged to allogenic transplant I.To estimate survival after transplant and post-transplant relapse rate;Primary end point(s): Overall survival (OS) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2 years | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Adverse events - NCI-CTC Version 4.0 2. Cumulative rate of patients achieving CHR 3. Cumulative rate of patients achieving complete cytogenetic responses 4. Cumulative rate of patients achieving molecular responses 5. Cumulative rate of patients reverting to chronic phase CML 6. Analysis of clonal architecture, methylation profile, bcr-abl mutations and cytogenetics in blast crisis and AP at baseline, and in case of relapse or failure. 7. Event free survival, duration of response 8. Number of patients allocated to allogenic transplant 9. Survival after transplant and post-transplantation relapse rate;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2 years | — |
