Summary

This trial is investigating whether a combination of navitoclax and ruxolitinib is more effective and safe in assessment of change in spleen volume when compared to ruxolitinib in participants with myelofibrosis.

Who is the study for?
Adults with myelofibrosis, a bone marrow cancer causing anemia and enlarged spleen. Participants must have certain levels of disease severity and symptoms, be able to complete symptom assessments, and not be eligible for stem cell transplantation due to various reasons.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing if taking Navitoclax tablets along with Ruxolitinib is better than just Ruxolitinib for reducing spleen size in myelofibrosis patients. It's a global study involving around 230 participants who will receive treatments orally.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include issues related to blood cells such as anemia or increased bleeding risk due to low platelets, fatigue from the treatment burden, and other possible drug-related reactions that will be monitored through regular medical checks.
