Description:
Myelofibrosis (MF) is a bone marrow illness that affects blood-forming tissues in the body.
MF disturbs the body's normal production of blood cells, causing extensive scarring in the
bone marrow. This leads to severe anemia, weakness, fatigue, and an enlarged spleen. The
purpose of this study is to assess safety and change in spleen volume when navitoclax is
given in combination with ruxolitinib, as compared to best available therapy, for adult
participants with MF.
Navitoclax is an investigational drug (not yet approved) being developed for the treatment of
MF. The study has 2 arms - A and B. In Arm A, participants will receive navitoclax in
combination with ruxolitinib. In Arm B, participants will receive the best available therapy
(BAT) for MF. Adult participants with a diagnosis of relapsed/refractory (R/R) MF will be
enrolled. Approximately 330 participants will be enrolled in approximately 210 sites across
the world.
In Arm A, participants will receive oral navitoclax tablet once daily with oral ruxolitinib
tablet twice daily. In Arm B, participants will receive the BAT as identified by the
investigator. Treatment will continue until clinical benefit is not seen, participants cannot
tolerate the study drugs, or participants withdraw consent. The approximate treatment
duration is about 3 years.
There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their
standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or
clinic. The effect of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood and bone marrow
tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.

addition to the minimum splenomegaly and symptom burden also required for
eligibility):
- Treatment with ruxolitinib for >= 24 weeks that was stopped due to lack of spleen
response (refractory), or loss of spleen response or symptom control after a
previous response (relapsed), or was continued despite relapsed/refractory
status.
- Treatment with ruxolitinib for < 24 weeks with documented disease progression
while on therapy as defined by any of the following:
- Appearance of new splenomegaly that is palpable to at least 5 cm below the
left costal margin (LCM) in participants with no evidence of splenomegaly
