Summary

"This trial is testing if adding navtemadlin to ruxolitinib treatment will be more helpful than using ruxolitinib alone for patients with Myelofibrosis who don't

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with Myelofibrosis who haven't had a good enough response to Ruxolitinib. Participants should be new to JAK inhibitor treatments and meet specific health criteria not detailed here.
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding Navtemadlin to Ruxolitinib offers more benefits than Ruxolitinib alone in Myelofibrosis patients with poor responses. It's randomized and blinded, meaning treatment assignments are by chance and unknown to participants and researchers.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Navtemadlin may include gastrointestinal symptoms, fatigue, liver issues, or muscle-related problems. Side effects from Ruxolitinib can range from anemia and low blood platelets to dizziness and headache.
