evaluate the effects of multiple doses of nilotinib on the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of midazolam in CML patients.

Study Overview

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the effects of multiple doses of nilotinib on the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of midazolam (as a sensitive CYP3A probe) in CML patients. The following extension study does evaluate the safety of nilotinib.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients with a cytopathologically confirmed diagnosis of Ph+ CML or Philadelphia chromosome- negative (Ph-) CML patients in accelerated or chronic phase who are resistant and/or intolerant against at least one prior therapy with a BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor
  • Female or male ≥ 18 years of age
  • Patients who are nilotinib naïve at study entry, e.g. did not receive any nilotinib treatment prior to study
  • WHO Performance Status of ≤ 2

Exclusion Criteria

  • Known cytopathologically confirmed CNS infiltration (in absence of suspicion of CNS involvement, lumbar puncture not required).
  • Impaired cardiac function
  • History of acute pancreatitis within 1 year of study entry or past medical history of chronic pancreatitis.
  • Patients actively receiving therapy with the prohibited co-medications (CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers, or CYP2C inducers)
  • Patients who are currently receiving treatment with any medications that have the potential to prolong the QT interval
  • Treatment with immunotherapy or chemotherapy within 3 days (6 weeks for nitrosurea or mitomycin-C) prior to Day 1 or who have not recovered from side effects of such therapy.
  • Treatment with imatinib within 1 week prior to Day 1 or who have not recovered from side effects of such therapy.
  • Patients who have hypersensitivity to midazolam or related compounds
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply
