ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06159491

This clinical trial is testing a combination of the drugs pacritinib and azacitidine in adults with Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML). The study aims to find the best dose and see if this treatment can help patients who are newly diagnosed or have been treated before but not with a JAK inhibitor.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring a new treatment for Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) using a combination of pacritinib and azacitidine. The trial is divided into two phases. In the first phase, researchers will test different doses to find the safest and most effective one. In the second phase, they will evaluate how well the treatment works in controlling the disease. Participants will receive pacritinib and azacitidine in cycles, and their health will be closely monitored to assess the treatment's effects.
