Brief Summary

This is a single-center, open-label, phase I study to determine the safety and tolerability of momelotinib in patients with myelofibrosis during and after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to test the safety, effects, and recommended dose of an investigational drug, momelotinib, during and after undergoing allogeneic HCT. This study will enroll up to 28 participants with myelofibrosis that are planned to undergo standard of care allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Participants may receive momelotinib or other JAK inhibitors prior to HCT and may adjust momelotinib dosing per protocol as follows: Multiple dose cohorts (100 mg daily, 150 mg daily and 200 mg daily) will be investigated in the peri-transplant period. Participants not previously on momelotinib will begin this drug at the initiation of conditioning therapy (Day -7 from HCT). Once participants have achieved hematopoietic recovery and are at least Day 21(cycle 2 day 1) after HCT, participants, receiving lower doses will increase the dose to 200 mg daily. Patients will remain on momelotinib for a total of 13 cycles (28 days per cycle, until approximately 1 year after transplant). After HCT, participants will be followed for up to 2 years.

Conditions

• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Momelotinib + Standard of Care (SOC) Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT)

Momelotinib will be administered orally once daily at a pre-determined dose starting 7 days before standard of care (SOC) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and for up to 1 year after HCT, for a total of 13 28-day cycles. Participants will receive SOC HCT and HCT treatment including: reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen before HCT (Fludarabine, Mephalan), and tacrolimus and methotrexate after HCT, all administered according to SOC.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Momelotinib

Intervention Type: DRUG

Administered orally once per day during each 28-day cycle. This will start on day -7 (7 days before HCT) and continue for up to 13 cycles. Dose cohorts (100 mg daily, 150 mg daily, 200 mg daily) will be investigated in the peri-transplant period. Once participants have achieved hematopoietic recovery and are at least Day 21 after HCT, participants will increase the dose to 200 mg daily.

Interventions

Momelotinib

Administered orally once per day during each 28-day cycle. This will start on day -7 (7 days before HCT) and continue for up to 13 cycles. Dose cohorts (100 mg daily, 150 mg daily, 200 mg daily) will be investigated in the peri-transplant period. Once participants have achieved hematopoietic recovery and are at least Day 21 after HCT, participants will increase the dose to 200 mg daily.

• Presence of a high risk molecular marker associated with worsened overall survival (ASXL1, EZH2, IDH1/2, SRSF2, U2AF1, p53)
• Participants do not have to be receiving treatment with JAK inhibitors for MF at the time of enrollment. If participants are receiving JAK inhibitor therapy with agents other momelotinib, participants must agree to be switched to momelotinib to begin Cycle 1 Day 1 on Day -7 from HCT (at the initiation of conditioning).
• Age >18 years
• Participants must be designated to undergo allogeneic HCT with:

• reduced intensity conditioning regimen, and
• peripheral blood stem cells as a graft source
• Participants who will undergo HCT from the following donor types are eligible:

Women of childbearing potential: must agree to use highly effective contraception prior to the initial dose/start of the first treatment, during the study, and for at least 1 week after the last dose of momelotinib.

Exclusion Criteria
