Purpose
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the safety and the efficacy of a combination of 2 treatments shown to have some efficacy in Chronic Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CP CML) separately, but that have never been combined to date, and this combination is expected to substantially increase the molecular response rates.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Cumulative incidence of complete molecular remissions after 12 months of treatment with nilotinib + Pegylated Interferon (PEG-IFN) [ Time Frame: 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]The trial opens for enrolment in 2011 March 7th for 18 months. Each patient will be followed for 24 months after entry.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Kinetics of Complete Molecular Response (CMR) at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24 months. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]CMR corresponds to a level of BCR-ABL transcripts < 0.001 % (BCR-ABL/ABL ratio < 0.001%). The BCR-ABL/ABL ratio will be analysed by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24 months to study kinetics of CMR.
- Stability of CMR : Proportion of patients maintaining their CMR at 18 and 24 months [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Kinetics of Major Molecular Response (MMR) at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24 months. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]MMR corresponds to a level of BCR-ABL transcripts < 0.1 % (BCR-ABL/ABL ratio < 0.1%). The BCR-ABL/ABL ratio is analysed by RT-PCR at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24 months to study kinetics of MMR.
- Stability of MMR : proportion of patients maintaining their MMR at 18 and 24 months [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Cumulative Complete Cytogenetic Remission (CCyR) rates at 3, 6 and 12 months. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Safety (hematologic and non-hematologic) of the combination nilotinib + PEG-IFN [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Dose reductions or interruptions of each treatment studied [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Progression free survival. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Overall survival. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Quality of life on nilotinib + PEG-IFN [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Event free survival. [ Time Frame: Patients will be enrolled for 18 months and will be followed for 24 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
