Testing pacritinib for myelofibrosis patients with low platelets
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This trial tests if pacritinib, a JAK inhibitor, can help people with myelofibrosis who also have low platelet counts. It may be an option for those who haven't had JAK inhibitor therapy before or who didn't respond to a previous one.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of myelofibrosis (primary, post-PV, or post-ET)
- Your platelet count must be between 50 and 120 (a measure of low platelets)
- You need to be able to start treatment with pacritinib, either as your first JAK inhibitor or after prior therapy stopped working (with side effects resolved)
- You must have a performance status score of 0 to 2 (able to do daily activities with some help if needed)
- You must be willing to have frequent MRI scans and a bone marrow biopsy

This study looks at how well pacritinib works in everyday medical care for people with myelofibrosis, a type of bone marrow cancer that causes scarring. It reviews medical records to understand treatment effects, which may help guide future care decisions.
This study tests a new combination of two drugs, tagraxofusp and pacritinib, for people with myelofibrosis who have already tried a JAK inhibitor without enough benefit or who couldn't take one. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink the spleen and improve symptoms.
This trial tests two oral medications, momelotinib and ruxolitinib, to see which works better for people with newly diagnosed myelofibrosis who also have low blood cell counts. You may be able to join if your spleen is enlarged and you haven't had prior treatment with certain drugs.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, selinexor and pacritinib, for people with myelofibrosis who have not had previous JAK inhibitor treatment and have low red blood cells (anemia) or low platelets. The goal is to see if these drugs can help improve symptoms and reduce spleen size while being safe for patients with cytopenias.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (pacritinib and talazoparib) for people with certain bone marrow cancers that have not responded well to standard JAK2 inhibitor therapy. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink the spleen, improve symptoms, or slow disease progression.
This trial tests an experimental drug called PMD-026 for people with myelofibrosis that has not responded well to a JAK inhibitor (like ruxolitinib). The goal is to see if PMD-026 can help reduce symptoms and spleen size.
