Real-World data reveals how bosutinib fights leukemia outside clinical trials
NCT ID NCT05363488
First seen Jun 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks back at medical records from a single hospital in Scotland to see how well the drug bosutinib works and how safe it is for people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in everyday practice. Researchers will track blood cell counts, genetic responses, and side effects in 17 patients who took bosutinib as part of their normal care. The goal is to understand the drug's real-world effectiveness beyond the controlled conditions of clinical trials.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bosutinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could provide a clearer picture of how bosutinib performs outside of controlled trials, helping doctors make better treatment decisions for people with chronic myeloid leukemia.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, retrospective study at a single center, so results may not apply to all patients. It only describes what happened in the past, not a controlled experiment, so it cannot prove cause and effect.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with a diagnosis of Ph+ CML aged ≥18 years at bosutinib initiation. * Patients prescribed bosutinib (irrespective of the phase of their disease) EITHER in normal clinical practice since it received marketing authorisation (27 March 2013) by the EMA OR via the compassionate use programme prior to marketing authorization. * Where required, evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the patient (or a legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients prescribed bosutinib as part of an interventional clinical trial programme. * Patients initiated on bosutinib less than 3 months prior to data collection taking place. * Patients prescribed bosutinib as exclusively post-allograft therapy.
