Study Summary

This trial will test whether pacritinib can help people with lymphoproliferative disorders who have relapsed or are refractory to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain types of T-cell lymphoma that have not responded to previous treatments or have come back after treatment. Participants must be able to take pills, understand and comply with study procedures, and use effective contraception if necessary. They should not have severe psychiatric issues, gastrointestinal conditions affecting drug absorption, uncontrolled illnesses like heart disease or infections, nor should they be pregnant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of a medication called Pacritinib in patients who have relapsed (cancer has returned) or refractory (not responding to treatment) T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. The focus is on how well this oral drug works against these specific types of cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects specific to Pacritinib are not listed here, common side effects for drugs treating similar conditions include nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, liver problems, increased risk of infection due to low blood cell counts and potential allergic reactions.

How many participants are engaged in the current clinical experiment?

"This research initiative concluded its recruitment period. It first appeared on the 12th of December 2022 and was last updated in October 6th, 2022. For individuals with lymphoproliferative disorders, 2416 studies are open to potential participants while those looking for Pacritinib trials can choose from six different sites that are still accepting patients."

Answered by AI

Is this research project currently open to recruitment?

"As evidenced on clinicaltrials.gov, this study has ceased recruiting as of October 6th 2022. Initially posted on December 1st 2021, the trial is now closed for new participants; however there are 2,422 other investigations in which individuals can take part."

Answered by AI

Is this research a pioneering effort?

"Pacritinib has been in development since 2017, when the initial clinical trial conducted by CTI BioPharma was completed. After this 43-person Phase 1 & 2 study, Pacritinib received drug approval and several live trials have now sprouted up across 48 cities and 22 countries."

Answered by AI

Has the Federal Drug Administration approved Pacritinib for commercial distribution?

"Pacritinib's safety has been supported by some clinical data, so it was assigned a score of 2 on the risk scale. Unfortunately, no studies have yet proven its efficacy."

Answered by AI

Have any other investigations into the efficacy of Pacritinib been conducted?

"At present, 6 medical experiments are looking into the effectiveness of Pacritinib. One is currently in its third phase. The majority of these studies take place at 172 different sites with a concentration around Tampa, Florida."
