This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of pegylated interferon and ruxolitinib in adults with polycythemia vera who can’t tolerate hydroxyurea or don’t respond well to it. If you qualify, it may help control blood counts and disease symptoms when standard treatment hasn’t worked.
This trial tests a new drug called 9MW3011 for people with polycythemia vera (PV) who haven't done well on or can't take standard treatments like hydroxyurea or interferon. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how it works in your body.
This Phase 3 study compares ruxolitinib against hydroxycarbamide or interferon as the first treatment for people with high-risk polycythemia vera. It aims to see which option works better to reduce disease-related problems and complications.
This trial tests an investigational drug called rusfertide for people with polycythemia vera whose red blood cell levels are not well controlled. It aims to see if rusfertide can help manage your condition without needing as many phlebotomies (blood removal procedures).
