Summary
This study tests whether Nelfinavir, a drug originally used for HIV, can improve anemia in people with myelofibrosis, a rare bone marrow cancer. The drug aims to help the body deliver iron to the bone marrow to make more red blood cells. About 10 adults with low hemoglobin will take Nelfinavir and be monitored for changes in blood counts and fibrosis markers.
