Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug combination for myelofibrosis, a rare blood cancer. The goal is to find the best dose of the new drug to give with another drug that is already used for this disease.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with Primary Myelofibrosis, Post-Polycythemia Vera MF, or Post-Essential Thrombocythemia MF who haven't had the best results from Ruxolitinib. They should have been on Ruxolitinib for at least 18 weeks and be stable on it for the last 8 weeks. Their spleen must be enlarged and they need to have certain symptoms related to their condition.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests KRT-232 combined with Ruxolitinib in patients whose Myelofibrosis hasn't responded well enough to just Ruxolitinib. The goal is to find a safe and effective dose of KRT-232 that works alongside Ruxolitinib.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include issues like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, changes in blood counts leading to increased risk of infections or bleeding problems, liver function abnormalities, and potential skin reactions.
