Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Age ≥18 years at time of provision of informed consent.
- Adequate liver function defined as the following: a. aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3 × upper limit of normal (ULN) b. alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤2 × ULN (ALP ≤5 × ULN for participants with isozymes specific to bone) c. bilirubin <2 × ULN or bilirubin ≤3 × ULN if due to Gilbert’s disease.
- For WOCBP, a negative pregnancy test must be confirmed during Screening and ≤3 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1. WOCBP must commit to using a highly effective method of contraception during study participation and until 28 weeks (approximately 6.5 months) after the last dose of study drug (Section 13.1) or For males, an effective barrier method of contraception must be used during study participation and until 28 weeks (approximately 6.5 months) after the last dose of RVU120, if the participant is sexually active with a WOCBP (Section 13.1). Sexually active male participants are asked to advise their female partners of childbearing potential to also use highly effective contraception for the same time period.
- Agree not to donate blood, eggs (ova) or sperm, during study participation and until 28 weeks (approximately 6.5 months) after the last dose of study drug (Section 13.1).
- Investigator considers the participant to be suitable for participation in the clinical study by assessing that they: understand the requirements of the clinical study and can give informed consent; can comply with study medication dosing requirements and all study-related procedures and evaluations and are not considered to be potentially unreliable and/or not cooperative.
- Diagnosis of primary or secondary MF according to the revised World Health Organization (WHO) criteria (Arber 2022).
You likely can't join if
- Peripheral blood blast count of ≥10% or bone marrow blast count of ≥10%.
- Taking any medications, herbal supplements, or other substances (including smoking) that are known to be strong inhibitors or moderate/strong inducers or sensitive substrates of CYP1A2, within less than 5 half-lives prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (Section 16). Note: Any exception should be discussed with the Medical Monitor.
- History of ventricular arrhythmia, or QTc ≥470 ms (Bazett’s formula; Section 18).
- Known active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection defined as any of the following: a. CD4+ T-cell count of less than 350 cells/µL at Screening b. AIDS‑defining opportunistic infection within the past 12 months c. on established antiretroviral therapy (ART) for less than 4 weeks or presenting with a viral load of more than 400 copies/mL prior to Screening d. on ART or prophylactic antimicrobials that are expected to cause significant drug-drug interactions or overlapping toxicities with study treatment (HIV testing is not required unless mandated locally).
- Current active liver disease from any cause including hepatitis A (hepatitis A virus IgM positive), hepatitis B (hepatitis B virus [HBV] surface antigen positive), or hepatitis C (hepatitis C virus [HCV] antibody positive, confirmed by HCV RNA). Participants with HCV with undetectable virus after treatment are eligible. A prior history of HBV is acceptable if quantitative PCR for HBV DNA is negative.
- Pregnant or lactating females.

- Participants in Cohort 1: Resistant or refractory to prior JAK inhibitor treatment or ineligible for JAK inhibitor treatment in the opinion of the investigator. Participants in Cohort 2: Suboptimal response to JAK inhibitor treatment. Note: a suboptimal response to JAK inhibitor treatment is defined as spleen size increase by palpation >25% after the first 3 months of treatment with a JAK inhibitor or persistent splenomegaly (spleen volume of >450 cm3) after at least 6 months of JAK inhibitor treatment and presence of 1 symptom score ≥5 or 2 symptom scores ≥3, new or persistent red blood cell (RBC) transfusion dependence. Participants in Cohort 3 (optional cohort): naïve to previous treatment with JAK inhibitor.
- Measurable splenomegaly as demonstrated by: • palpable spleen measuring ≥5 cm below the left costal margin. The edge of the spleen should be measured from the mid-clavicular line on the left side of the abdomen to the point of greatest splenic protrusion or • spleen volume of ≥450 cm3 measured by MRI or CT.
- Active symptoms of MF as demonstrated by a symptom score of at least 5 points (on a 0 to 10 scale) on at least one of the symptoms or a score of 3 or greater on at least 2 of the following symptoms: night sweats, itchiness, abdominal discomfort, pain under ribs on left side, early satiety, bone or muscle pain, and inactivity.
