Authorised Phase II and Phase III (Integrated) Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms are frequent and chronic myeloid malignancies including Polycythemia Vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), Primary Myelofibrosis (PMF) and Prefibrotic myelofibrosis (PreMF).

Apixaban/rivaroxaban Versus Aspirin for primary prevention of thrombo-embolic complications in JAK2V617F-positive myeloproliferative neoplasms

EU CTIS ID: 2024-515362-13-00

What this study is testing

To demonstrate that low-dose DOAC is more effective than LDA in the primary prevention of arterial or venous thrombosis in JAK2V617F-positive high-risk MPN patients

  • Phase II and Phase III (Integrated)

A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Patients with diagnosis of Polycythemia Vera or Essential Thrombocythemia or Prefibrotic myelofibrosis according to WHO or BSCH criteria (bone marrow biopsy not compulsory).
  • Patients with JAK2V617F mutation (threshold allele burden > 1%).
  • Patients considered as “high-risk” patients: - 1°) based on age (> 60-year-old) - 2°) based on thrombotic history (compatible with antithrombotic randomization) but aged ≥ 18-year-old
  • Length of time from MPN diagnostic to inclusion will not exceed 12 months

You likely can't join if

  • Contra-indication to aspirin or DOAC due to allergic situation or recent history of major bleeding
  • No appropriate contraception (estrogen contraception or no contraception) in women of childbearing age or breastfeeding woman
  • PS>2 or life expectancy <12 months
  • Formal indication of treatment with LDA or DOAC (thus precluding randomization)
  • Inability to give informed consent
  • Patients under curatorship/guardianship
