Patients with history of hemorrhagic stroke and evidence of uncontrolled bleeding as well as bleeding disorder
Known HIV positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy

Summary

This trial is a study to find the appropriate dosage of talazoparib when given with pacritinib, a standard treatment. The goal is to determine the maximum tolerated dosage and the recommended

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with certain types of blood disorders like myelofibrosis or chronic leukemia, who've had symptoms measured by the MFSAF v4.0 and are considered intermediate-2/high-risk. They must have tried a JAK2 inhibitor treatment without success and have good organ function. Pregnant women, those with uncontrolled illnesses, recent other cancers, or severe unresolved treatment side effects can't join.
What is being tested?
The study tests different doses of Talazoparib combined with standard pacritinib to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). It's a phase I trial where patients receive escalating doses to assess safety and effectiveness in treating myeloproliferative neoplasms resistant to JAK2 inhibitors.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include fatigue, bleeding issues due to low platelet counts, digestive problems like nausea or diarrhea, potential heart rhythm abnormalities from QTc prolongation, increased risk of infections due to weakened immune system response from marrow-suppressive therapy.
