About this study

Official title: Open-Label Roll-Over Study to Assess the Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Ruxolitinib in Subjects With Myelofibrosis

This phase II trial studies the long-term side effects of ruxolitinib in treating patients with myelofibrosis. Collecting data about the long-term safety and tolerability of ruxolitinib may better help future patients with myelofibrosis.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To collect long term safety and tolerability data in patients with myelofibrosis previously treated with ruxolitinib on protocol 2007-0169.

OUTLINE:

Patients continue to receive ruxolitinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) or twice daily (BID). Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo follow-up assessment for safety over 10 minutes every 3 cycles.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Long-term Follow-up, Quality-of-Life Assessment and Ruxolitinib in people with Myelofibrosis, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Aug 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Most Common Treatment Related Adverse Events (time frame: to the date of failure or death from any cause, Up to 7 years, 3 months and 24 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Aug 2025.
