Interventions

  • Azacitidine — DRUG
    Azacitidine is a hypomethylating agent that works by activating certain genes in the body to help cells mature and to kill abnormal bone marrow cells.
  • Venetoclax — DRUG
    Venetoclax is a drug that blocks a protein called B-cell lymphoma (BCL2) protein from working. BCL2 is a protein that helps control whether a cell lives or dies and is thought to help cancer cells to live. Blocking BCL2 is believed to help kill cancer cells.

Study Details

The purpose of this research study is to look at how safe and useful a drug called azacitidine in combination with a drug called venetoclax, is in people with accelerated or blast phase BRC-ABL negative myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Arms

  • Experimental: Azacitidine and Venetoclax
    A treatment cycle is 28 days long. Azacitidine will be given by injection under the skin, once a day, for the first 6 days of every cycle. Venetoclax will be given orally, once a day, as follows at the discretion of their study doctors: Cycle 1: * Day 1 - 100 mg * Day 2 - 200 mg * Days 3 to 28 - 400 mg Cycle 2: * Participants with a response to the study drugs will continue taking 400 mg from Days 1 to 21, with no study drug from Days 22 to 28 during Cycle 2. * Participants who have not yet responded to the study drugs will continue taking 400 mg from Days 1 to 28 during Cycle 2. Cycle 3 and subsequent cycles: * Participants with a response to the study drugs will continue to take 400 mg from Days 1 to 21, with no study drug from Days 22 to 28. * Participants whose disease has not worsened will continue taking 400 mg from Days 1 to 28. * Participants have not responded to the study drugs will be withdrawn from the study.
