Ruxolitinib Before, During and After Hematopoietic Cell Transplant in Older Patients With Myelofibrosis and Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Overlap Syndromes
NCT07228624 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This phase II trial tests the effect of adding ruxolitinib to standard graft versus host disease (GVHD) prevention in treating older patients with myelofibrosis (MF) or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) overlap syndromes before, during, and after a donor (allogeneic) hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Allogeneic HCT is a procedure in which a person receives blood-forming stem cells (cells from which all blood cells develop) from a genetically similar, but not identical donor. Giving chemotherapy, such as cytoxan and busulfan or fludarabine and melphalan, before a donor transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. However, sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can attack the body's normal cells (called GVHD). Giving standard prevention (prophylaxis) therapies, such as tacrolimus and methotrexate, after the transplant may stop this from happening. Methotrexate, a type of antifolate, is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. Methotrexate stops cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill cancer cells. Tacrolimus is used to help reduce the risk of rejection by the body of organ and bone marrow transplants. Ruxolitinib, a type of Janus-associated kinase (JAK) inhibitor, blocks a protein called JAK, which may help keep abnormal blood cells or cancer cells from growing. It may also lower the body's immune response and prevent the development of GVHD. Giving ruxolitinib before, during and after allogeneic HCT in addition to standard GVHD prophylaxis may be safe, tolerable and effective in preventing GVHD and improving outcomes in older patients with MF or MDS/MPN overlap syndrome.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07228624
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07228624 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Phase 2, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 50 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, which has 319 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Primary Myelofibrosis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 5 interventions — of which Cyclophosphamide is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07228624 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Washington. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
