Active clinical trials for "Primary Myelofibrosis"

This is a Phase IB, open-label, dose-finding study of the JAK 1 and 2 inhibitor ruxolitinib in patients with myelofibrosis (MF). The study consists of two periods: the core study period, comprising the dose escalation stage and the safety extension phase up to Week 24, then the extension study period beyond Week 24 and up to 3 years, to further characterize the safety and efficacy of ruxolitinib in this patient population. The dose escalation phase will enroll successive cohorts of patients who receive increasing doses of ruxolitinib until the maximum safe starting dose (MSSD) is determined. In the safety expansion phase, additional patients will be treated with ruxolitinib at the MSSD defined during dose escalation. The primary objective is to establish the MSSD of ruxolitinib in patients with MF and starting platelet counts < 100 x 10 ^9/L

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if SB939 can help to control myelofibrosis. The safety of this drug will also be studied.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of ruxolitinib (INCB018424) sustained release (SR) formulation in participants with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera MF (PPV-MF), and post-essential thrombocythemia MF (PET-MF).

The primary objective of this study was to collect additional safety of INC424 in patients with Primary Myelofibrosis, Post Polycythemia Myelofibrosis or Post-essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis, who either received prior treatment with commercially available agents or who have never received treatment.

The purpose of this research study is to compare the survival rates of patients with better risk disease undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) to the survival rates reported in the medical literature of similar patients undergoing reduced intensity HSCT from matched related donors.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects of orally administered SAR302503 (TG101348) in patients with myelofibrosis who have completed the MF-TG101348-001 study.

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as CC-4047, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. CC-4047 may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. PURPOSE: This trial is studying the side effects and best dose of CC-4047 and to see how well it works in treating patients with myelofibrosis.

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor peripheral stem cell transplant or bone marrow transplant using stem cells from a brother or sister that closely match the patient's stem cells, helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer or abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF, to the donor helps the stem cells move from the bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Giving methotrexate and cyclosporine before and after transplant may stop this from happening. It is not yet known whether a donor peripheral stem cell transplant is more effective than a donor bone marrow transplant in treating hematologic cancers or other diseases. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying filgrastim-mobilized sibling donor peripheral stem cell transplant to see how well it works compared with sibling donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with hematologic cancers or other diseases.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if CEP-701 can help control myelofibrosis (MF). The safety of CEP-701 will also be studied.

This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of total-body irradiation when given together with fludarabine phosphate followed by a donor peripheral stem cell transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or myeloproliferative disorders (MPD). Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. Giving chemotherapy or radiation therapy before or after transplant also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
