New hope for myelofibrosis patients who stop responding to standard therapy
NCT ID NCT01523171
First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests an experimental drug called SAR302503 in people with myelofibrosis who have already been treated with ruxolitinib. The main goal is to see if the drug can shrink the spleen by at least 35% after six months of daily oral capsules. The study also tracks whether symptoms like night sweats and belly discomfort improve. Participants have intermediate- or high-risk myelofibrosis, including forms that started after polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an experimental drug called SAR302503
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for people with myelofibrosis whose disease no longer responds to ruxolitinib.
- What could go wrong
- This is a mid-stage trial with a small number of participants and no comparison group, so results may not confirm benefit. The drug may also have side effects.
