Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing selinexor, a medication that aims to stop harmful cells from growing, in patients with myelofibrosis. Selinexor is the first oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export compound tested for cancer treatment, showing broad antitumor activity. These patients have already tried another treatment for a significant period without full success. The study will compare selinexor to other treatments chosen by doctors to see which works better.

People cannot join if they have a high percentage of blasts in blood or bone marrow, severe gastrointestinal issues affecting drug absorption, recent major surgery, life-threatening conditions, or previous treatment with selinexor.
