Summary

This trial is testing a drug to see if it can help treat myelofibrosis, a disease which causes problems with blood cell production.

Who is the study for?
Adults with JAK2 V617F+ myelofibrosis needing treatment and at intermediate/high risk. They must have good performance status, specific blood counts, liver and kidney function levels, agree to use contraception, and not be candidates for JAK inhibitor therapy. Excluded are those recently on certain treatments or with allergies to similar drugs, CNS involvement, uncontrolled illnesses, pregnancy/lactation, HIV/HBV/HCV positivity or prior transplants.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Elotuzumab's effectiveness in treating patients with JAK2-mutated myelofibrosis to control the disease and improve blood cell count and bone marrow function. It also includes questionnaire administration to gather patient-reported outcomes.
What are the potential side effects?
Elotuzumab may cause immune system-related side effects such as infusion reactions (symptoms during/after drug is given), fatigue, nausea, diarrhea; it can also affect blood cells leading to higher infection risk or bleeding problems.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (elotuzumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients receive elotuzumab IV over 1-4 hours on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycles 1-2. Beginning in cycle 3, patients receive elotuzumab IV over 1-4 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 36 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
