6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

Chronic Myeloid Leukemia The majority of imatinib-treated patients experienced adverse reactions at some time.

Imatinib was discontinued due to drug-related adverse reactions in 2.4% of patients receiving imatinib in the randomized trial of newly diagnosed patients with Ph+ CML in chronic phase comparing imatinib versus IFN+Ara-C, and in 12.5% of patients receiving imatinib in the randomized trial of newly diagnosed patients with Ph+ CML in chronic phase comparing imatinib and nilotinib.

Imatinib was discontinued due to drug-related adverse reactions in 4% of patients in chronic phase after failure of interferon-alpha therapy, in 4% of patients in accelerated phase and in 5% of patients in blast crisis.

The most frequently reported drug-related adverse reactions were edema, nausea and vomiting, muscle cramps, musculoskeletal pain, diarrhea and rash (Table 2 and Table 3 for newly diagnosed CML, Table 4 for other CML patients).

Edema was most frequently periorbital or in lower limbs and was managed with diuretics, other supportive measures, or by reducing the dose of imatinib [see Dosage and Administration (2.13) ] .

The frequency of severe superficial edema was 1.5%-6%.

A variety of adverse reactions represent local or general fluid retention, including pleural effusion, ascites, pulmonary edema, and rapid weight gain with or without superficial edema.
