-Intermediate-2 or high-risk according to DIPSS plus (Appendix F)
-Age 18-70 years inclusive
-WHO performance status 0-2 (Appendix C)
Platelet count = 25 × 109/L without platelet support within 2 weeks before study entry.

Exclusion Criteria

- Patients who have been treated with pacritinib as their previous JAK2 inhibitor treatment cannot participate in this study.
- Previous treatment with JAK2 inhbitors, other than pacritinib, is allowed with the exception of high dose ruxolitinib (above 10 mg BID). For these patients taper the dose to 10 mg BID or lower at least 2 weeks before pacritinib treatment is allowed.
- Any GI or metabolic condition (e.g. inflammatory or chronic functional bowel disorder such as Crohn’s Disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, chronic diarrhea or constipation) that could interfere with absorption of oral medication
- Left ventricular cardiac ejection fraction of = 45% by echocardiogram or multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan
- Impaired liver and renal function, defined by liver transaminases (aspartate aminotransferase [AST]/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT] and alanine aminotransferase [ALT]/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase [SGPT]), >3 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) (AST/ALT >5 × ULN if transaminase elevation is related to MF), direct bilirubin >4× ULN, and creatinine clearance ? 40 ml/min.
-Experimental treatment within four weeks before inclusion for PMF, Post-PV, or Post-ET MF
-Severe pulmonary dysfunction (CTCAE grade III-IV, see appendix D)
- Treatment with a potent strong CYP3A4 inhibitor or a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP450) inducer within the last 2 weeks
- Treatment with anticoagulation or antiplatelet agents, except for aspirin dosages of =100 mg per day, within the last 2 weeks
- New York Heart Association Class II, III, or IV congestive heart failure
- QTc prolongation >450 ms as assessed by ECG and corrected by Federicia method or other factors that increase the risk for QT interval prolongation (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia [defined as serum potassium <3.0 mEq/L that is persistent and refractory to correction], family history of long QT interval syndrome, or concomitant use of medications that may prolong QT interval)
- Significant recent bleeding history defined as NCI CTCAE grade =2 within the last 3 months, unless precipitated by an inciting event (e.g., surgery, trauma, injury)
- Any history of CTCAE grade =2 non-dysrhythmia cardiac conditions within the last 6 months. Patients with asymptomatic grade 2 non-dysrhythmia cardiac conditions may be considered for inclusion, with the approval of the principal investigator, if stable and unlikely to affect patient safety
- Any history of CTCAE grade =2 cardiac dysrhythmias within the last 6 months. Patients with non-QTc CTCAE grade 2 cardiac dysrhythmias may be considered for inclusion, with the approval of the principal investigator, if the dysrhythmias are stable, asymptomatic, and unlikely to affect patient safety
-Patients with active, uncontrolled infections
-Patients known to be HIV(human immunodeficiency virus)-positive
-Active hepatitis A, B or C
-History of active malignancy during the past 3 years, except basal carcinoma of the skin or stage 0 cervical carcinoma
-Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical condition (e.g. uncontrolled diabetes, infection, hypertension, cancer, etc.)
-Pregnant or breastfeeding women
-Any psychological, familial, sociological and geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule
