INCB160058 for Myeloproliferative Disorder
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial explores a new treatment called INCB160058 to assess its safety and behavior in the body for individuals with certain blood disorders known as myeloproliferative neoplasms. The trial consists of two parts: the first part determines the appropriate dose, and the second part tests that dose in a larger group. Individuals with myelofibrosis (MF), polycythemia vera (PV), or essential thrombocythemia (ET) who have not responded well to previous treatments may be suitable candidates. Participants should be willing to undergo bone marrow tests and have a documented JAK2V617F mutation. As a Phase 1 trial, this research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the opportunity to be among the first to receive this new treatment.
Do I need to stop my current medications to join the trial?
The trial requires that you stop any prior MF-directed therapy at least 28 days before starting the study treatment. Additionally, you must not be on certain treatments like G-CSF, GM-CSF, romiplostim, or eltrombopag within 4 weeks before the first dose.
Is there any evidence suggesting that INCB160058 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research shows that INCB160058 is being tested for safety and tolerance in people with myeloproliferative neoplasms, a group of blood disorders. Specific data from earlier studies on the safety of INCB160058 is not yet available. This trial is in its first phase, focusing primarily on determining the treatment's safety for humans. This phase typically involves a small number of participants to closely monitor any side effects or issues.
At this stage, researchers test treatments carefully to find the safest dose for future research. Because this is an early trial, safety information is still being gathered. Participants in this study will help researchers understand how people respond to the treatment.12345Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for myeloproliferative disorder?
Unlike the standard treatments for myeloproliferative disorders, which often include drugs like hydroxyurea or ruxolitinib, INCB160058 is unique because it aims to identify a new dosing regimen that targets the maximum tolerated dose and optimal expansion dose. Researchers are excited about INCB160058 because it offers a novel approach to managing conditions like myelofibrosis, polycythemia vera, and essential thrombocythemia. By potentially offering a different mechanism of action, INCB160058 might address unmet needs in patients who do not fully benefit from existing therapies.
What evidence suggests that INCB160058 could be an effective treatment for myeloproliferative neoplasms?
Research has shown that the drug INCB160058, which participants in this trial may receive, may help treat certain blood disorders called myeloproliferative neoplasms, especially in individuals with a specific genetic change known as the JAK2 V617F mutation. Early lab studies demonstrated that this drug can target this mutation, often linked to diseases like myelofibrosis, polycythemia vera, and essential thrombocythemia. By focusing on this mutation, INCB160058 aims to slow down or stop disease progression. Initial results from studies suggest it might benefit patients who haven't responded to other treatments.12467

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults over 18 with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms who've lived more than 6 months after diagnosis. They should have symptoms or an enlarged spleen and be at intermediate-1 risk or higher. Participants must have tried a JAK inhibitor treatment for at least 12 weeks without success, and be willing to undergo bone marrow tests.Inclusion Criteria
