Summary

This trial is testing a new combination drug therapy for myelofibrosis, a bone marrow cancer. The trial will have three phases, with the first two phases testing safety and preliminary efficacy in various doses, and the third phase testing efficacy in a randomized study.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with primary or secondary myelofibrosis, showing significant spleen enlargement and certain risk levels. They must have functioning major organs, no prior treatments with JAK inhibitors or selinexor, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use contraception, and have a life expectancy over 6 months. Exclusions include recent surgeries, uncontrolled infections without stable treatment for hepatitis B/C or HIV.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of Selinexor and Ruxolitinib against a placebo plus Ruxolitinib in patients who haven't used JAK inhibitors before. It's split into two phases: an initial phase to determine safe dosages followed by a larger phase where participants are randomly assigned to either the drug combo or placebo in a 2:1 ratio.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include digestive issues like nausea and diarrhea; blood disorders such as low platelet counts; liver function abnormalities; fatigue; possible allergic reactions if sensitive to the drugs' components; and increased risk of infection due to immune system effects.
