Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, selinexor, to see if it is better than the current standard of care for myelofibrosis.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with myelofibrosis who have been treated with JAK inhibitors for at least 6 months can join. They must be in good general health, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and willing to use contraception. People cannot join if they have a high percentage of blasts in blood or bone marrow, severe gastrointestinal issues affecting drug absorption, recent major surgery, life-threatening conditions, or previous treatment with selinexor.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of Selinexor compared to other treatments chosen by physicians for those with myelofibrosis previously treated with JAK inhibitors. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive Selinexor or a physician's choice treatment in an open-label study.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Selinexor may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea (if severe), fatigue, blood count changes that could lead to increased risk of infections or bleeding problems. The exact side effects depend on individual reactions and the specific treatments used in the physician's choice group.

Active Control
Group I: Arm S: SelinexorExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with MF who had previously received at least 6 months of treatment with JAK 1/2 inhibitor will receive a dose of selinexor 80 mg in first 2 cycles followed by selinexor 60 mg in subsequent cycles orally on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each 28-day cycle to participants on Arm S.
Group II: Arm PC: Physician's Choice TreatmentActive Control1 Intervention
Participants with MF who had previously received at least 6 months of treatment with JAK 1/2 inhibitor will receive Physician's choice treatment which will be administered as per clinical practice.
