Ruxolitinib Vs Allogeneic SCT for Patients with Myelofibrosis According to Donor Availability

Phase 2
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Bone Marrow Fibrosis
Interventions
Procedure: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Registration Number
NCT03333187
Lead Sponsor
Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf
Brief Summary

The present study will be a multicenter, prospective phase II-study comparing efficacy of allogeneic SCT for patients with myelofibrosis who have a suitable stem cell donor after a 3 months Ruxolitinib induction therapy with patients who lack a suitable stem cell donor and will continue to receive Ruxolitinib.

Detailed Description

This study is a multicenter, prospective phase II-study compares efficacy of allogeneic SCT for patients with myelofibrosis who have a suitable stem cell donor after a 3 months Ruxolitinib induction therapy with patients who lack a suitable stem cell donor and will continue to receive Ruxolitinib.

In this study will further assess and compare the safety and efficacy of study treatments/ induction therapy in both study arms on spleen reduction, improvement of constitutional symptoms, QOL, toxicity, fibrosis regression, development of GvHD as well as chimerism, engraftment, relapse incidence, disease related mortality, outcome and overall survival.
