    Ponatinib is a third-generation tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI), indicated in patients with chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP), or blast phase (BP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), who are resistant or intolerant to ≥2 prior TKIs, patients for whom subsequent treatment with imatinib is not appropriate, and patients who have a T315I mutation. We aimed to evaluate outcomes of ponatinib treatment, including safety, with focus on cardiovascular toxicity, in real-world patients from Argentina. Data from patients with CP CML treated with ponatinib was retrospectively retrieved from 2013 to 2023 in 7 centers. Seventy-two patients were included (median age: 44 years; male: 55.5%; T315I mutation: 32%: median treatment duration: 36 months. At baseline, 57 patients (79%) had a breakpoint cluster region–Abelson (BCR::ABL1) transcript level >10% on the international reporting scale (BCR::ABL1 IS). A molecular response (MR, BCR::ABL1 (IS) <1%) was achieved at 12 months in 51.6% of evaluable patients; 57% maintained MR at last follow-up. Overall, 43% and 25% maintained major MR (MMR) or deep MR (DMR) (MR4.0-MR5.0), respectively at last follow-up. Twelve (16.6%) ponatinib-resistant patients were rescued with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The estimated 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 84%. Ponatinib dose was reduced during treatment in 22 patients; nevertheless, MMR was maintained in 50% of these patients. Severe arterial occlusive events (AOE) were reported in 10.9% of patients after a median treatment of 5 months. CV toxicity was consistent with clinical trials and other real-world registries. Older age, hypercholesterolemia and a SCORE risk >2% were significantly associated with higher risk of AOEs. Controlling CV risk factors and reducing doses at optimal time points may help to optimize ponatinib use in daily practice. We evaluate outcomes of ponatinib treatment in Argentinean real-world setting. Seventy-two patients were included. Molecular response (MR) <1% IS%BCR::ABL1 at 12 months was achieved in 51.6% of evaluable patients. Estimated 2-year progression free survival was 84%. Older age, hypercholesterolemia and a SCORE-risk >2% were significantly associated with higher risk of arterial occlusive events. Control of CV risk factors and reducing doses at optimal time-points may help to optimize ponatinib use in daily practice.
