New drug trial targets scarring bone marrow disease

NCT ID NCT04517851

Summary

This study is testing if a drug called elotuzumab can help control myelofibrosis, a rare blood cancer that causes bone marrow scarring. The trial will involve about 15 adults with a specific genetic change (JAK2 mutation) who are not candidates for standard JAK inhibitor therapy. Researchers will give the drug through an IV to see if it improves blood cell counts, reduces spleen size, and lessens disease symptoms.
