Study Summary

This trial is designed to provide itacitinib to people who have already been taking it and who may benefit from continued treatment. Eligible participants will receive the same dose and schedule of itacitinib as they received in the previous study. Treatment may be continued as long as the participant does not experience negative side effects, still derives benefit from the drug, and does not meet any other criteria for discontinuation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients already taking itacitinib in other Incyte-sponsored studies, who are benefiting and tolerating the treatment well. They must understand and agree to study procedures, avoid pregnancy or fathering children, and not have any illness that could risk their safety or study compliance.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial provides ongoing access to itacitinib for participants from previous related studies. It's an open-label study where all involved know they're receiving itacitinib at doses and schedules set by earlier trials as long as benefits continue and side effects remain manageable.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, continued use of itacitinib may include previously encountered adverse reactions such as immune system effects, liver issues, blood count changes or infections. Tolerance is assessed based on past experiences in the parent protocol.
