What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall response rate

    For the PV Cohort, overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of participants with all of the following at some point during the treatment period:

    • Hematocrit < 45% in the absence of phlebotomy that lasts at least 4 weeks
    • White blood cell (WBC) count < 10 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks
    • Platelet count ≤ 400 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks
    • Resolution of palpable splenomegaly that lasts at least 4 weeks

    For the ET Cohort, overall response rate is defined as the proportion of participants with all of the following at some point during the treatment period:

    • WBC count < 10 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks
    • Platelet count ≤ 400 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks
    • Resolution of palpable splenomegaly that lasts at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Confirmed overall response rate

    Confirmed overall response rate is defined as the proportion of participants who meet all the criteria listed for the primary endpoints of PV or ET, sustained for at least 12 weeks.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  2. Proportion of participants with hematocrit < 45% in the absence of phlebotomy that lasts at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  3. Proportion of participants with WBC < 10 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  4. Proportion of participants with platelet count ≤ 400 x 10^9/L that lasts at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  5. Proportion of participants with resolution of palpable splenomegaly that lasts at least 4 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  6. Proportion of participants with ≥ 10 point decrease in modified Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form Total Symptom Score (MPNSAF TSS) compared to baseline that lasts at least 12 weeks

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Momelotinib in people with Polycythemia Vera and Essential Thrombocythemia, run by Sierra Oncology LLC - a GSK company at 15 sites in 5 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States, Canada, France, Australia, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall response rate (time frame: Up to 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01998828, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Apr 2020.
