- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the major hematologic response rate (i.e. complete and partial hematologic responses) associated with BAY 43-9006 in patients with chronic phase CML resistant to Gleevec. Every 3 months
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To assess time to progression. Until event occurs To assess the safety of BAY 43-9006 in patients with chronic phase CML resistant to Gleevec. Ongoing To determine the cytogenetic response rate associated with BAY 43-9006. Every 3 months To evaluate the molecular response and to perform the pharmacodynamic assessment by analysis the following biomarkers: phospho-Erk, Crkl, phospho-S6 At 2 months and at last visit To evaluate the duration of hematologic response to BAY 43-9006. Throughout study until end of response To evaluate the duration of cytogenetic response to BAY 43-9006. Throughout study until end of response To assess overall survival.. During Follow up
