Study of Canakinumab for Myelofibrosis

This study is testing a drug called Canakinumab in people with myelofibrosis (a bone marrow disorder). This includes primary myelofibrosis, and myelofibrosis that developed after essential thrombocythemia or polycythemia vera. The study aims to see how many participants respond to the treatment, based on specific medical criteria, after 24 weeks. Canakinumab is given as a shot under the skin every 21 days for 8 cycles. We are looking to enroll 14 participants aged 18 or older. The study status is currently unclear, so it's not known if it's actively recruiting.

  • Number of participant with response based on IWG-MRT criteria24 weeks

    Efficacy of Canakinumab as measured by number of participant with response based on the International Working Group for Myelofibrosis Research and Treatment (IWG-MRT) criteria. A response is considered any one of the following: complete response, partial response, or clinical improvement (inclusive of anemia response, spleen response, or symptom response).
