Phase IIIInterventional
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Active-control Study of Pelabresib (DAK539) and Ruxolitinib vs. Placebo and Ruxolitinib in Adult Patients With Myelofibrosis Who Are JAK Inhibitor Naive
Protocol: 2026P000581NCT: NCT07357727
Overview
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate whether treatment with pelabresib in combination with ruxolitinib leads to improved clinical outcomes compared to ruxolitinib alone in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF), or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (PET-MF) who have not previously received Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor therapy.

Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants have diagnosis of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) or post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (post-PV MF) or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (post-ET MF) according to the International Consensus Classification (ICC) of Myeloid Neoplasms and Acute Leukemias 2022

- Prior hematopoietic cell transplant or participant anticipated to receive a hematopoietic cell transplant within 24 weeks from the date of randomization
- Blasts ≥ 5% in bone marrow if results available at screening or history of accelerated phase (AP) or leukemic transformation
- History of a malignancy (other than MF, PPV-MF or PET-MF) in the past 3 years in need of systemic treatment
- Received any approved or investigational agent other than hydroxyurea or anagrelide for the treatment of MF within 14 days of first dose of study treatment or within 5 half-lives of the approved or investigational agent, whichever is longer
- Prior treatment with any JAK inhibitor or Bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) inhibitor
Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
