Phase II Study of the Histone-deacetylase Inhibitor GIVINOSTAT (ITF2357) in Combination With Hydroxyurea in Patients With JAK2V617F Positive Polycythemia Vera Non-responder to Hydroxyurea Monotherapy.
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating GIVINOSTAT (ITF2357) 50 mg o.d. + MTD Hydroxyurea and GIVINOSTAT (ITF2357) 50 mg b.i.d. + MTD Hydroxyurea for Polycythemia Vera. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 22 sites.
Detailed Summary
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of Givinostat in combination with hydroxyurea in patients with JAK2V617F-positive Polycythemia Vera (PV) non-responders to the maximum tolerated dose of hydroxyurea monotherapy. The secondary objectives of this study were: * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Givinostat in combination with hydroxyurea in patients with JAK2V617Fpositive PV non-responders to the maximum tolerated dose of hydroxyurea monotherapy; * To explore the impact in terms of efficacy and tolerability of Givinostat 50 mg dose escalation in patients not achieving at least a partial response at the time when the primary endpoint was assessed (week 12); * To evaluate the molecular response (JAK2 mutated allele burden) by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR); * To evaluate the reduction of the fraction of JAK2V617F positive clonogenic progenitors.
