NCT ID NCT07447817
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase II trial tests two oral drugs, selinexor and pacritinib, in 26 adults with myelofibrosis who have anemia and low platelets and have not taken JAK inhibitors before. The main goal is to see if the combination can shrink the spleen by at least 35%. The study also tracks symptom improvement and safety.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- selinexor and pacritinib (two oral drugs)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for myelofibrosis patients who cannot take standard JAK inhibitors due to low blood counts.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase trial with only 26 participants. The combination may cause side effects or fail to shrink the spleen enough. Results may not apply to all patients.
