| Description | The introduction of the fi rst tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib into clinical practice has been associated with dramatical change in chronic myeloid leukaemia treatment over the past 20 years. It represents one of the biggest achievements in haematology and oncology per se. Imatinib was followed by second- and third generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib and ponatinib) resulting in newly dia gnosed chronic myeloid leukaemia patients having almost the same life expectancy as the general population. Nevertheless, this often-lifelong treatment can be associated with side eff ects, which in extraordinary cases may be life threatening. Vascular adverse events are also included among such serious adverse events and their incidence varies over a wide range from 0.32–47.8%, most frequently in association with nilotinib or ponatinib treatment. Their incidence in daily clinical practice in the Czech Republic was evaluated in a retrospective analysis of the INFINITY database. From January 2005 to August 2020, chronic myeloid leukaemia was dia gnosed in 1029 patients, with 1007 having valid records for analysis. Of these, 964 patients were in chronic phase. At least one vascular adverse event occurred in 82 patients (8.5%) in chronic phase during tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy, most frequently in patients receiving nilotinib (10.8%) and ponatinib (8.3%). During fi rst-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment, 60 patients (6.3%) experienced at least one vascular adverse event. In direct comparison of fi rst line imatinib and nilotinib therapy, we found a signifi cantly higher incidence of cardiovascular (2.6 vs. 7.2%; P = 0.013), cerebrovascular (1.4 vs. 4.8%; P = 0.019), and peripheral vascular adverse events (0.2 vs. 4.0%; P = 0.001) in nilotinib treated patients, respectively. This paper off ers a more detailed overview of vascular adverse event incidence in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors in clinical practice in the Czech Republic and its comparison with available literature. |
