Summary

This trial will test whether pacritinib can help people with lymphoproliferative disorders who have relapsed or are refractory to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain types of T-cell lymphoma that have not responded to previous treatments or have come back after treatment. Participants must be able to take pills, understand and comply with study procedures, and use effective contraception if necessary. They should not have severe psychiatric issues, gastrointestinal conditions affecting drug absorption, uncontrolled illnesses like heart disease or infections, nor should they be pregnant.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of a medication called Pacritinib in patients who have relapsed (cancer has returned) or refractory (not responding to treatment) T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. The focus is on how well this oral drug works against these specific types of cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects specific to Pacritinib are not listed here, common side effects for drugs treating similar conditions include nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, liver problems, increased risk of infection due to low blood cell counts and potential allergic reactions.
