New drug reparixin aims to control myelofibrosis when standard treatment fails

NCT ID NCT05835466

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 study tests the drug reparixin in 10 people with myelofibrosis, a type of bone marrow cancer. Participants have advanced disease and cannot take or have not responded to standard JAK inhibitor therapy. They take reparixin pills three times daily for 6 months, with the option to continue if the disease is stable. The goal is to see if reparixin can shrink the spleen, improve anemia, and reduce symptoms.
