Summary
This is a multi-centre phase 2 open-label prospective study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of ropeg patients with pre-fibrotic primary myelofibrosis or DIPSS low/intermediate-1 risk myelofibrosis after 24 months of treatment.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria2
- Adults ≥ 18 years (or based on the legal age of the territory) Diagnosed of primary myelofibrosis, post-PV and post-ET myelofibrosis according to the WHO 2016 classification Bone marrow reticulin fibrosis grade of 0-1 or low/intermediate-1 risk according to DIPSS Compensated liver function defined as: bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit normal (ULN); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2 x ULNor aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2 x ULN; prothrombin time versus control <3 seconds at screening Glomerular filtration rate ≥ 50 mL/min (by MDRD equation or Cockcroft-Gault formula) Men and women of childbearing potential must agree to perform contraception until 28 days after the last dose of ropeg.
- Women must avoid breast-feeding during the study. Able to give a written informed consent and fully comply to the requirements of the study.
Exclusion Criteria7
