Filter by:Adult patients (>18 years) with newly diagnosis of Ph negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) according to WHO 2016 criteria, will be recruited to this study. This study is the result of the collaboration the Hematology Division of Federico II University Medical School of Naples (Italy), that performed the US investigation and the IRCCS SYNLAB SDN where the patients carried out MR. The study is conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. All subjects gave informed consent to receive both US and MR scans of the spleen. All spleen US scans were performed by the same operator (with>10 years of experience in abdominal US), who used an EPIQ 5 Philips instrument with a 1-5 MHz broadband curvilinear probe. The spleen was scanned in patients who were fasting, in the longitudinal and transverse planes by using an intercostal approach, a subcostal approach, or both. The patient was placed in a supine or right-sided position until complete organ visualization was achieved. Perimeter, longitudinal diameter (LD), and area, defined as the maximum measurements with splenic borders and angles clearly defined, were measured, and SV (in milliliters) was calculated automatically. For each subject, the mean value of 3 measurements repeated on the same imaging session was calculated and recorded for final analysis. Within two weeks from the US, each patient underwent an MRI of the upper abdomen to evaluate the splenic volume. MRI examinations were performed using a 3T Biograph mMR scanner (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) with 4-channel flex phased-array body coil. Routine clinical abdominal MRI acquisition includes coronal T2W Half-Fourier Acquisition Single-shot Turbo spin Echo imaging (HASTE), axial T1 Dual-echo FSE, axial T2 TSE Fat Sat, and an axial diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). The DWI includes an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map that was automatically generated at the time of acquisition. At last, an isotropic 2mm3 axial Volumetric Interpolated Breath-hold Examination (VIBE) sequence for SV evaluation was acquired. For the latter, attention was paid to optimize the field of view to the spleen, in order to reduce patient's apnea and possible respiratory artifacts. A radiologist with mote than 10 years of experience in abdominal MRI reporting performed measurement of the three orthogonal diameters of the spleen for each patient. Subsequently, SV was calculated using ITK-SNAP software and semi-automatic 3D segmentation approach, firstly based on a signal threshold.
This was a prospective, two-arm, non-interventional study of JAKAVI® (Ruxolitinib) in patients with myelofibrosis
This was an open-label, randomized, dose-finding study in patients with primary or secondary MF (Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System [DIPSS] risk score of Intermediate-1 to High-Risk) who were previously treated with ruxolitinib. The study was designed to support a pacritinib dosage selection decision with evaluation of 3 dosages.
This is a Phase 2b open label study of an orally administered LSD1 inhibitor, Bomedemstat (MK-3543, formerly called IMG-7289), in patients with essential thrombocythemia. This study investigates the following: - The safety and tolerability of Bomedemstat - The pharmacodynamic effect of Bomedemstat
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are blood disorders that occur when the body makes too many white or red blood cells, or platelets. This overproduction of blood cells in the bone marrow can create problems for blood flow and lead to various symptoms. One of the major problems is the formation of blood clots. These may form in the veins of a patient's legs or arms where they cause leg or arm pain, swelling or difficulty walking. These clots may travel to the lung and then cause chest pain, shortness of breath and sometimes death. Blood clots can also lead to poor or no blood flow to one's heart, brain, or other organs, causing damages that cannot be easily or ever repaired, such as stroke or heart attack. Patients diagnosed with certain types of MPN are associated with a higher risk of developing blood clots and related complications. For this reason, MPN patients are usually treated with low-dose aspirin, a common drug used for blood clot prevention, on long-term basis to prevent the formation of blood clots and other complications. However, recent studies also show that the risk of blood clots remains elevated in MPN patients treated with aspirin, and there may not be improvement or reduction in fatal or other events that are associated with blood clots. In addition, since this medical condition is rare, so there's a lack of studies done with high quality results to help physicians decide the best treatment plan for these patients. The study drug, apixaban, is a new type of orally-taken blood thinner that has been shown to be effective and safe for prevention and treatment of blood clots in various patient populations. The investigators will evaluate whether apixaban is safer and/or better at preventing blood clots and other complications in MPN patients compared to aspirin.
This phase IIB, open-label, multicenter study evaluated the efficacy and safety of oral Jaktinib Hydrochloride Tablets in Intermediate-risk and High-risk Myelofibrosis and Previously Treated With Ruxolitinib. The experiment is divided into two parts: dose exploration and extended research.
MOMENTUM is a randomized, double-blind, active control Phase 3 trial intended to confirm the differentiated clinical benefits of the investigational drug momelotinib (MMB) versus danazol (DAN) in symptomatic and anemic participants who have previously received an approved Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) therapy for myelofibrosis (MF). The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of MMB to DAN in treating and reducing: 1) disease related symptoms, 2) the need for blood transfusions and 3) splenomegaly, in adults with primary MF, post-polycythemia vera MF or post-essential thrombocythemia MF. The study is planned in countries including, but not limited to: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, United Kingdom (UK) and United States (US). Participants must be symptomatic with a Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF) version (v) 4.0 Total Symptom Score of >= 10 at screening, and be anemic with hemoglobin (Hgb) < 10 gram/deciliter (g/dL). For participants with ongoing JAKi therapy at screening, JAKi therapy must be tapered over a period of at least 1 week, followed by a 2-week non-treatment washout interval prior to randomization. Participants will be randomized 2:1 to orally self-administer blinded treatment: MMB plus placebo or DAN plus placebo. Participants randomized to receive MMB who complete the randomized treatment period to the end of Week 24 may continue to receive MMB in the open-label extended treatment period to the end of Week 204 (a total period of treatment of approximately 4 years) if the participants tolerates and continues to benefit from MMB. Participants randomized to receive DAN may cross-over to MMB open-label treatment in the following circumstances: at the end of Week 24 if they complete the randomized treatment period; or at the end of Week 24 if they discontinue treatment with DAN but continue study assessments and do not receive prohibited medications including alternative active anti-MF therapy; or at any time during the randomized treatment period if they meet the protocol-defined criteria for radiographically confirmed symptomatic splenic progression. Participants randomized to receive DAN who are receiving clinical benefit at the end of Week 24 may choose to continue DAN therapy up to Week 48. The comparator treatment, DAN, is an approved medication in the US and in some other countries and is recommended by national guidelines as a treatment for anemia in MF.
A phase I-II study in patients with mutated MPN by vaccinating with PD-L1 and Aginase1 peptides with Montanide ISA-51 as adjuvant, to monitor the immunological response to vaccination and subsequently safety, toxicity and clinical effect.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether MPN patient are able to adhere to a dietary intervention. Participants will be randomized to one of two healthy diets. Participants will receive in person dietician counseling and online curriculum. Adherence will be measured using online surveys and phone diet recalls. Changes in inflammatory markers in blood will also be measured at 5 time points during this 15 week study.
Increased levels of TGF-β1 were detected in serum, plasma and BM and positively correlated with both grade of BMF and extent of leukemic cell infiltration in the marrow. TGF-β likely plays a dual role in promoting myelofibrosis and myeloproliferation, both of which are the bone marrow morphologic hallmark of MF. AVID200 is a drug that targets TGF-β1 and TGF-β3. The study team hypothesizes that inhibiting the TGF-β signaling pathway in MF will decrease the fibrogenic stimuli leading to myelofibrosis and concomitantly interrupt myeloproliferation and restore normal hematopoiesis. This is a first in human, open-label, multicenter, Phase I/Ib trial of AVID200. Patients must have intermediate-2 or higher primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-essential thrombocythemia or polycythemia-vera related MF (Post ET/PV MF). This study will enroll up to 24 patients. AVID200 is delivered by IV infusion on day 1 of each 3 week cycle.
