Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Phase 1 Part: This was an open-label, sequential dose escalation study of pelabresib (CPI-0610) in patients who had previously been treated for Acute Leukemia, Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms. Phase 2 Part: This was an open-label study of pelabresib (CPI-0610), administered with and without Ruxolitinib, in patients diagnosed with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (Myelofibrosis and Essential Thrombocythemia). Pelabresib (CPI-0610) was a small molecule inhibitor of bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins.

- description
- * Cohort 1A: Was open to patients with MF who were Transfusion Dependent (TD) and who had previously been treated with a JAKi and were intolerant, resistant, refractory, or had lost response to the JAKi, or were ineligible to be treated with a JAKi (pelabresib (CPI-0610) alone). * Cohort 1B: Was open to patients with MF who were not TD and who had previously been treated with a JAKi and were intolerant, resistant, refractory, or had lost response to the JAKi, or were ineligible to be treated with a JAKi (pelabresib (CPI-0610) alone).
