Filter by:This open-label study is to determine the long-term safety and tolerability of momelotinib in previously enrolled study participants with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (post-PV MF), post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (post-ET MF), polycythemia vera (PV), or essential thrombocythemia (ET), who have tolerated and achieved stable disease or better with momelotinib treatment while enrolled in a previous clinical trial.
This study is to determine the efficacy of momelotinib (MMB) versus best available therapy (BAT) in anemic or thrombocytopenic adults with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), or post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (Post-PV/ET MF) who were treated with ruxolitinib as measured by splenic response rate at Week 24 (SRR24). Participants will be randomized to receive either MMB or BAT for 24 weeks during the randomized treatment phase, after which they will be eligible to receive MMB in an extended treatment phase for up to an additional 204 weeks. After discontinuation of study medication, assessments will continue for 12 additional weeks, after which participants will be contacted for survival follow-up approximately every 6 months for up to 5 years from the date of enrollment or until study termination. For those subjects planning to continue treatment with MMB following the end of the study, the End of Treatment, 30-day, 12-Week, and survival follow-up visits are not required.
This phase II trial studies how well second mitochondrial-derived activator of caspases (SMAC) mimetic LCL161 (LCL161) works in treating patients with primary myelofibrosis, post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis, or post-essential thrombocytosis myelofibrosis. SMAC mimetic LCL161 may help control the growth of abnormal cells by promoting apoptosis (programmed cell death).
This is an open-label, multicenter clinical study in order to collect and examine data concerning the safety and efficacy of ruxolitinib in patients with Primary Myelofibrosis (MF), Post-Polycythemia Vera (PV) MF, Post-Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) MF.
The purpose of this study is determine whether Anagrelide Retard is non-inferior to anagrelide immediate release form in treatment of essential thrombocythemia. Essential thrombocythemia (ET) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterised by a sustained increase in platelet counts above the normal value (> 450 x 109/L) and increased megakaryopoiesis in the bone marrow, without secondary causes of thrombocytosis. Anagrelide hydrochloride selectively reduces platelet numbers by inhibiting megakaryocyte development and maturation in humans, without affecting other cell lineages. Anagrelide Retard is a new, prolonged release (PR) tablet formulation of anagrelide developed by AOP Orphan Pharmaceuticals AG. The rationale for developing this new formulation is based on the assumption of having a better tolerability while maintaining an efficacy comparable to that of the immediate release formulation. The effects of Anagrelide Retard and Thromboreductin® will be compared in terms of mean platelet count measured by a central laboratory/centralized method at 3 time points during the maintenance phase.
RO7490677 is an investigational drug that is being developed for possible use in the treatment of myelofibrosis (MF), a disease in which the bone marrow, which is the organ in the body that makes blood cells, is replaced by fibrosis, or excess scar tissue. The purpose of this study is to gather information on whether RO7490677 has an effect on the MF disease, whether it is safe in patients with MF, and how well it is tolerated.
The purpose of the study is to isolate and characterize stem cells of patients with Polycythemia Vera (PV) and Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) to find out why these cells are not working the way they should be and why they seem to be sensitive to regulatory factors in the blood, such as clotting.
This study is to determine the efficacy of momelotinib (MMB) versus ruxolitinib (RUX) in participants with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) or post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (post-PV/ET MF) who have not yet received treatment with a Janus kinase inhibitor (JAK inhibitor). Participants will be randomized to receive either MMB or ruxolitinib for 24 weeks during a double-blind treatment phase, after which they will be eligible to receive open-label MMB for up to an additional 216 weeks. After discontinuation of study medication, assessments will continue for 12 additional weeks, after which participants will be contacted for survival follow-up approximately every 6 months for up to 5 years from the date of enrollment or until study termination. For those participants planning to continue treatment with MMB following the end of the study, the Early Study Drug Discontinuation (ESDD), 30-day, 12-Week, and survival follow-up visits are not required.
There is a paucity of data on the aetiology of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). The investigators conducted a systematic review of the literature which identified several cohort and case-control studies that have investigated a wide range of potential medical, environmental and occupational risk factors. However, these studies have been limited by a wide variation in case definition and small sample sizes limiting the potential to detect modest risk differences between cases and controls. The research group propose an exploratory case-control study of 100 patients with classic MPNs and 200 controls to determine the optimal methods for roll out of this study to a multi-centred UK-based case-control study that will investigate the aetiology of MPN subtypes. The objectives of the study are to evaluate recruitment procedures, response rates and the development of a telephone administered questionnaire. The findings of this exploratory study will form the basis of a protocol for a large United Kingdom (UK)-wide case-control study of MPNs.
This study involves screening for portal vein thrombosis and portal hypertension in patients with Philadelphia negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). These include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and myelofibrosis. Portal vein thrombosis and portal hypertension are serious complications that are often seen in myeloproliferative patients. These complications are usually diagnosed when patients become symptomatic, and are often already at an advanced stage. They can further progress to cause non-reversible damage to the liver, also called cirrhosis of the liver. As a result of this, patients often accumulate fluid in the abdomen which is ascites; and can develop swelling of veins in the lining of the esophagus known as varices. If untreated, varices have the risk of rupturing resulting in life-threatening bleeding. When diagnosed at an advanced stage, the treatment is usually supportive therapy and there are no treatments available at present which can reverse these conditions. This study is looking at screening for these two conditions using Doppler ultrasound and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
