Polycythemia Vera

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sapablursen when added on to current standard of care (SOC) for Polycythemia Vera (PV) therapy. The study will be conducted in three sequential parts (Part 1a blinded treatment, Part 1b open-label treatment, \& Part 2 long-term extension). Participants may receive treatment for up to 156 weeks.

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a rare blood cancer in which the body makes too many red blood cells. This can make the blood thicker and may increase the risk of serious health problems such as blood clots. Many people with PV need regular phlebotomy, which is a procedure to remove blood, to help keep their hematocrit level under control. Hematocrit is the proportion of red blood cells in the blood. The main aim of this study is to evaluate whether rusfertide helps Japanese participants with PV keep their hematocrit under control and avoid the need for phlebotomy. All participants in this study will receive rusfertide. This study is open-label, which means both the participants and the study team will know what treatment is being given. Participants will be followed for up to about 244 weeks, including a screening period, a 52-week initial treatment period, a long-term extension period, and a 4-week safety follow-up period.

The trial will be a phase III, randomised-controlled, multi-centre, international, open-label trial consisting of ruxolitinib versus best available therapy, where best available therapy is a choice of interferon alpha, any formulation permitted (IFN) or hydroxycarbamide (HC), and which will be elected by the Investigator prior to randomisation.

This study evaluates whether a personalized, supervised exercise program can improve fatigue and physical function in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Although many patients achieve good disease control with modern therapies, they often experience persistent symptoms such as fatigue that significantly affect daily life. Participants will take part in a 12-week exercise program that includes aerobic and resistance training, tailored to their individual fitness level and clinical condition. The program consists of two supervised sessions per week, along with additional home-based aerobic activity. Before and after the program, participants will undergo comprehensive assessments, including cardiopulmonary exercise testing, physical function tests, questionnaires on fatigue and quality of life, and blood sample collection. The study aims to determine whether this type of exercise program is feasible and safe, and whether it can reduce fatigue and improve physical capacity, quality of life, and biological markers related to inflammation and metabolism. Participants will also be followed after the intervention to evaluate whether the benefits are maintained over time.

The primary purpose of the study is to transition participants into an extension study to collect long-term safety and efficacy data. The study will include participants who are safely tolerating bomedemstat, receiving clinical benefit from its use in estimation of the investigator, and have shown the following criteria: * Participants from the IMG-7289-202/MK-3543-005 (NCT05223920) study must have received at least 6 months of treatment with bomedemstat; * Essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV) participants from studies other than IMG-7289-202/MK-3543-005 must have achieved confirmed hematologic remission. No hypothesis testing will be conducted in this study.

This phase II trial evaluates how a curcumin supplement (C3 complex/Bioperine) changes the inflammatory response and symptomatology in patients with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS), low risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS), and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Chronic inflammation drives disease development and contributes to symptoms experienced by patients with CCUS, LR-MDS, and MPN. Curcumin has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties and has been studied in various chronic illnesses and hematologic diseases.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of givinostat to hydroxyurea in Jak2V617F-positive high risk polycythemia vera patients.

Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are frequent and chronic myeloid malignancies including Polycythemia Vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), Primary Myelofibrosis (PMF) and Prefibrotic myelofibrosis (PreMF). These MPNs are caused by the acquisition of mutations affecting activation/proliferation pathways in hematopoietic stem cells. The principal mutations are JAK2V617F, calreticulin (CALR exon 9) and MPL W515. ET or MFP/PreMF patients who do not carry one of these three mutations are declared as triple-negative (3NEG) cases even if they are real MPN cases. These diseases are at high risk of thrombo-embolic complications and with high morbidity/mortality. This risk varies from 4 to 30% depending on MPN subtype and mutational status. In terms of therapy, all patients with MPNs should also take daily low-dose aspirin (LDA) as first antithrombotic drug, which is particularly efficient to reduce arterial but not venous events. Despite the association of a cytoreductive drug and LDA, thromboses still occur in 5-8% patients/year. All these situations have been explored in biological or clinical assays. All of them could increase the bleeding risk. We should look at different ways to reduce the thrombotic incidence: Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOAC)? In the general population, in medical or surgical contexts, DOACs have demonstrated their efficiency to prevent or cure most of the venous or arterial thrombotic events. At the present time, DOAC can be used in cancer populations according to International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) recommendations, except in patients with cancer at high bleeding risk (gastro-intestinal or genito-urinary cancers). Unfortunately, in trials evaluating DOAC in cancer patients, most patients have solid rather than hematologic cancers (generally less than 10% of the patients, mostly lymphoma or myeloma). In cancer patients, DOAC are also highly efficient to reduce the incidence of thrombosis (-30 to 60%), but patients are exposed to a higher hemorrhagic risk, especially in digestive cancer patients. In the cancer population, pathophysiology of both thrombotic and hemorrhagic events may be quite different between solid cancers and MPN. If MPN patients are also considered to be cancer patients in many countries, the pathophysiology of thrombosis is quite specific (hyperviscosity, platelet abnormalities, clonality, specific cytokines…) and they are exposed to a lower risk of digestive hemorrhages. It is thus difficult to extend findings from the "general cancer population" to MPN patients. Unfortunately, only scarce, retrospective data regarding the use of DOAC in MPNs are available data. We were the first to publish a "real-life" study about the use, the impact, and the risks in this population. In this local retrospective study, 25 patients with MPN were treated with DOAC for a median time of 2.1 years. We observed only one thrombosis (4%) and three major hemorrhages (12%, after trauma or unprepared surgery). Furthermore, we have compared the benefit/risk balance compared to patients treated with LDA without difference. With the increasing evidences of efficacy and tolerance of DOAC in large cohorts of patients including cancer patients, with their proven efficacy on prevention of both arterial and venous thrombotic events and because of the absence of prospective trial using these drugs in MPN patients, we propose to study their potential benefit as primary thrombotic prevention in MPN.

This phase II trial studies how well decitabine with ruxolitinib, fedratinib, or pacritinib works before hematopoietic stem cell transplant in treating patients with accelerated/blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms (tumors). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Ruxolitinib, fedratinib, and pacritinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving chemotherapy before a donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The donated stem cells may also replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells. Decitabine, with ruxolitinib, fedratinib, or pacritinib may work better than multi-agent chemotherapy or no pre-transplant therapy, in treating patients with accelerated/blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms.

This is a phase I/II study evaluating the optimal dose of N-acetylcysteine (N-AC) in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN).

The MPN PROGRESSion Registry is a multi-year, observational research study designed to improve understanding of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs)-a group of rare, chronic blood cancers that include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), primary myelofibrosis (MF), pre-fibrotic primary myelofibrosis (pre-PMF), secondary myelofibrosis, myeloproliferative neoplasm-unclassifiable (MPN-U), MPN in accelerated phase (MPN-AP), and MPN in blast phase (MPN-BP), post-MPN Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), and MDS/MPN overlap syndrome as defined above per WHO 2022 criteria, including patients originally diagnosed with one of these conditions but who have received one or more SCTs and/or BMTs . These conditions are characterized by abnormal blood cell production in the bone marrow and may lead to complications such as blood clots, bleeding, bone marrow fibrosis, and, in some cases, progression to acute leukemia. The central hypothesis of the registry is that collecting and analyzing real-world, longitudinal data-including electronic health records (EHRs), laboratory values, treatments, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs)-from a diverse population of people living with MPNs will help identify patterns and predictors of disease progression, treatment response, quality of life, and long-term outcomes. These insights are intended to guide future research, inform clinical guidelines, and support improvements in patient care. The registry is non-interventional and observational; participants do not receive investigational treatments, and all medical care continues under the supervision of their own physicians. Data collection includes EHRs, PRO surveys, patient-reported symptom and lab tracking, insurance claims, and, in the future, may include linkages with other relevant disease registries and datasets. Potential collaborations under consideration include those with the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) MPN Registry, the Mayo Clinic MPN Database, the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR), the SEER Program, Harmony Alliance Foundation, and the National Cancer Database (NCDB). The registry emphasizes the patient voice, incorporating lived experiences related to hallmark MPN symptoms such as fatigue, pruritus (itching), bone pain, night sweats, and social and emotional impacts. Participants will be followed for at least five years, with many enrolled for ten years or longer, to capture the natural history of disease and long-term outcomes. PRO surveys will be completed approximately every six months, and EHR data will be regularly reviewed to track changes in clinical status, treatment, and disease evolution. Statistical analyses will use descriptive and inferential methods to examine clinical characteristics, symptom burden, disease trajectories, and patient-centered outcomes. Planned subgroup analyses may compare differences across diagnoses, treatment approaches, demographics, or genomic factors. Analytic plans will be finalized during the course of the study and may evolve in response to emerging scientific questions. The registry is open to adults (18 years or older) living in the United States who have been diagnosed with any of the included MPN subtypes and are willing to share health information and complete study surveys. Individuals currently enrolled in interventional clinical trials or unable to provide informed consent may be excluded. Participation is voluntary, and participants may withdraw from the study at any time without affecting their medical care. Privacy and data security are core priorities. Participant data will be securely stored and managed in accordance with all applicable privacy laws and research regulations. No identifiable information will be shared with external parties without appropriate authorization. Oversight is provided by a Steering Committee and a Patient Engagement Advisory Committee (PEAC), ensuring rigorous scientific, ethical, and patient-centered governance. The registry is sponsored by the MPN Research Foundation, a nonprofit organization advancing research and patient advocacy in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). Participants can contact the registry team at any time with questions and will receive periodic updates on study findings. This study aims to address critical gaps in understanding the real-world experiences of people with MPNs-such as symptom burden over time, risk factors for progression, and how different treatments impact patient outcomes. Findings may inform clinical trial design, support biomarker discovery, and contribute to the development of updated treatment recommendations. The registry is committed to including participants from diverse backgrounds and clinical settings to ensure findings are broadly applicable across the MPN community. Summary results will be shared through scientific publications, presentations, and other dissemination efforts to advance MPN research and care globally.

The primary objective of this non interventional study is to evaluate symptom burden in adult patients with PV without symptomatic splenomegaly during treatment with ropeginterferon alfa-2b in a real-world setting. Further patient-relevant endpoints include effectiveness including complete hematologic response (CHR), event-free survival (EFS), safety and tolerability, treatment reality including dosing details as well as factors affecting treatment decision making.

Prospective study for functional and phenotypic characterization of monocytes in philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms

This phase II clinical trial evaluates whether a modified modality of conditioning reduces treatment-related mortality (TRM) in patients who undergo a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for a hematological malignancy. HSCT is a curative therapy for many hematopoietic malignancies, however this regimen results in higher rates of TRM than other forms of treatment. In recent years, less intense conditioning regimens with radiation and chemotherapy prior to HSCT have been developed. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors while chemotherapy drugs like fludarabine and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This study evaluates whether a two-step approach with lower-intensity regimens of these treatments prior to HSCT reduces the rate of TRM.

Study GLB-001-02 is a phase 1, open-label clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and preliminary efficacy of GLB-001 in study participants with relapsed or refractory or intolerant myeloid malignancies including polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), myelofibrosis (MF), lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS), higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS), and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This study consists of 3 parts, dose escalation (Phase 1a), dose exploration (Phase 1b) and dose expansion (Phase 1c). Dose escalation (Phase 1a) and dose exploration (Phase 1b) will evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD and preliminary efficacy of GLB-001, administered orally, in study participants with PV/ET, or study participants with MF/LR-MDS/HR-MDS/AML, respectively. Dose expansion (Phase 1c) will be followed to determine the relationships among dose, exposure, toxicity, tolerability and clinical activity, to identify minimally active dose, and to select the recommended dose(s) for phase 2 study. Approximately 108 study participants may be enrolled in the study.

This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, two-arm study to assess the efficacy and safety of ropeginterferon alfa-2b for patients with PV. The entire study period is 60 weeks, including a main treatment phase (32 weeks), an extension treatment phase (24 weeks), and a safety follow-up phase (four weeks). However, the study may be extended for additional period of treatment after Week 60 pending the primary endpoint analysis at Week 32. Approximately 70 patients with PV will be enrolled.

This is a multicenter, open-label Phase I clinical trial of BEBT-507 in subjects with polycythemia vera(PV). Phase Ia is a single-agent dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), preliminary efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of BEBT-507 in subjects with PV . Based on the results of Phase Ia, two doses will be selected for further evaluation in Phase Ib to assess the efficacy, safety, and PK profile of BEBT-507 in subjects with PV , and to recommend a dose for Phase III clinical trials.

Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) occur sporadically and are due to somatic mutations in the JAK2 (Janus kinase 2), CALR (calreticulin) and MPL (thrombopoietin receptor) genes. However, data from epidemiological and family studies clearly highlight a heritable component that influences the risk of developing MPN and potentially contributes to the observed phenotypic pleiotropy. Genome-wide association studies in MPN familial clusters have identified a number of germline genetic variants associated with an increased risk of developing MPN. The strongest association discovered so far is the presence of the JAK2 46/1 haplotype and, subsequently, several studies have found additional variants in other genes, particularly in the TERT gene. The aim of the study would be to investigate the presence of germline mutations in MPN patients selected on the basis of a family history of myeloid neoplasms through the analysis of both already recognized genes and other potentially implicated ones.

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of 9MW3011 in Chinese patients with Polycythemia Vera（PV）.

The EValuation of ERythrocytosis pRospEctive cohort STudy (EVEREST) is a prospective study designed to shed light on these key questions in the diagnosis, management, and clinical outcomes in patients with elevated hemoglobin (erythrocytosis). This longitudinal, prospective study will generate high quality data that can help inform the optimal approach to diagnosis and management in this patient population.
