In plain English
This study looks at whether roginolisib, taken together with ruxolitinib, can help people with myelofibrosis (a rare bone marrow cancer) whose spleen has not shrunk enough and who still have symptoms while on ruxolitinib alone. It is run by iOnctura.
Who can take part
- Adults aged 18 or over
- Have myelofibrosis, including types that developed from polycythaemia vera or essential thrombocythemia
- Are reasonably active (able to care for themselves, ECOG performance status 0 to 2)
- Have been taking ruxolitinib for at least 3 months at a stable dose of 10 mg or more for at least 8 weeks, but the spleen has shrunk by less than 25% and can still be felt at least 10 cm below the left rib cage
- Have myelofibrosis symptoms with a Total Symptom Score of 10 or more at screening
- Have fewer than 10% blast cells (early white blood cells) in the blood
- Agree to use highly effective contraception to avoid pregnancy or fathering a child during the study and for at least 1 month after the last dose
- Have not had other myelofibrosis treatments (such as danazol, hydroxyurea, or interferon) within 3 months, with an exception if these finished 6 months before starting ruxolitinib
Who may not be able to
- Cannot swallow food or take oral medicines
- Have had certain severe side effects that did not get better with treatment (except fatigue, mild neuropathy, or hair loss)
- Have an active autoimmune disease needing systemic treatment (such as disease-modifying drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs)
- Have a clinically meaningful abnormal heart tracing (ECG), a QTc interval over 480 milliseconds (with some exceptions), or left bundle branch block
- Have had a stroke or heart attack in the last 6 months, unstable angina, moderate or severe heart failure, or a serious heart rhythm problem needing medicine
- Have an active cancer needing treatment now, or a past cancer unless in complete remission for at least 2 years and low risk of coming back (some slow-growing or early cancers are allowed)
- Have had erythropoiesis stimulating agents in the last 4 weeks or radiotherapy to the spleen in the last 3 months
- Have had major surgery in the last 2 weeks
- Are on immunosuppressive treatment, including more than 10 mg/day prednisone-type steroids, within 14 days (inhaled, topical, or low-dose steroids are allowed)
- Have had a live vaccine within 30 days of starting (COVID-19 and other non-live vaccines are allowed)
- Are allergic to any part of the study drugs
- Are breastfeeding
- Have alcohol or substance abuse problems
- Have blood, kidney, liver, or clotting test results outside the study's set ranges (for example, low neutrophils or platelets, haemoglobin below 8 g/dL unless transfused, or abnormal kidney, liver, or clotting tests)
- Have hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV that is active (people with HIV on stable treatment, well controlled and without symptoms may join)
- Have active or inactive 'latent' tuberculosis

About This Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how roginolisib works in comparison to standard treatment in adult patients with Myelofibrosis. The main questions it aims to answer is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of roginolisib when administered in combination with ruxolitinib.
More detail
A Phase I/II Open-Label, Single Arm Multi-centre Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Roginolisib in Combination with Ruxolitinib in Patients with Myelofibrosis (MF) who are Unresponsive to JAK inhibitors (HEMA-MED). This study will enrol approximately 26 male and female patients aged over 18 years with MF, who have been treated with ruxolitinib for ≥ 3 months with a stable dose ≥ 10 mg for at least the last 8 weeks prior to Day 1 and no significant spleen reduction. The study will initially enrol 13 patients in Part 1 to assess the benefit/risk profile of roginolisib when combined with ruxolitinib. Part 2 will enrol an additional 13 patients to further characterize the benefit/risk.
