Olverembatinib is a novel orally administered third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with definitive responses in T315I-mutant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. However, its value in newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) remained unclarified. In this multiple-center study, 20 patients with de novo Ph + ALL were treated with olverembatinib-based regimens as frontline therapy. All patients acquired complete remission (CR) after induction. 85% of patients achieved complete molecular response (CMR) within three months, contributed mainly by the addition of blinatumomab. A total of 45% of patients experienced mild hematological treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). Olverembatinib-based treatment led to promising outcomes in de novo Ph + ALL patients but warranted further studies to investigate the best-combined strategy.
