New Recruiting Trial: Pacritinib, a Kinase Inhibitor of CSF1R, IRAK1, JAK2, and FLT3, in Adults and Pediatric Participants 12 Years of Age or Older With Myelodysplastic Syndromes or Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
Researchers are testing a new drug called pacritinib in people ages 12 and older who have myelodysplastic syndromes or myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms — rare blood disorders where the bone marrow doesn't make enough healthy blood cells. The drug works by blocking several proteins that may be causing these diseases. This is an early-stage study sponsored by the National Cancer Institute that will start recruiting patients in April 2026.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial offers patients with myelodysplastic syndromes access to a novel multi-targeted kinase inhibitor that may address disease mechanisms not covered by current standard treatments, with enrollment beginning in April 2026.
