First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests whether the drug ruxolitinib can reduce symptoms like fatigue, itching, and night sweats in people with low-risk essential thrombocythemia (ET) or polycythemia vera (PV) who have significant symptom burden. About 60 adults will take ruxolitinib and be monitored for symptom improvement and blood count changes. The goal is to improve quality of life, not to cure the disease.
