Summary

This phase 3 trial tests a new drug called flonoltinib maleate in people with intermediate- or high-risk myelofibrosis, a type of bone marrow cancer. The study compares flonoltinib to an existing drug, ruxolitinib, to see if it can reduce spleen size and improve symptoms. About 105 participants will take the drug daily until they meet withdrawal criteria.
