Study Summary

TGF-β is a cytokine that is found to be upregulated in the bone marrow of patients with myelofibrosis. This cytokine likely plays a dual role in promoting myelofibrosis and myeloproliferation, both of which are the bone marrow morphologic hallmark of MF. The investigators propose that inhibiting the TGF-β signaling pathway in MF will decrease the fibrogenic stimuli leading to myelofibrosis and concomitantly interrupt myeloproliferation. This is a novel approach to the treatment of patients with myelofibrosis.

Primary Outcome

To assess the safety and tolerability of GC1008 in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) or post-polycythemia vera/essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (Post-PV/ET MF). A total of 9 AEs determined by the investigator to be at least possibly related to GC1008 occurred during the study.

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL monoclonal antibody to TGF-beta
