About

This trial adopts an open, randomized, parallel controlled, multicenter clinical trial design planning to enroll patients with polycythemia vera who are resistant/intolerant to hydroxyurea or interferon。The study divided into two stages: dose exploration stage: three dose groups are tentatively set, with three subjects in each group, totaling nine subjects in each group; Dose extension stage: Based on the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic results of the comprehensive dose exploration stage, 2-3 dose groups are planned to be selected for dose extension trials.

Full description

The treatment goal of polycythemia vera is to avoid initial or recurrent thrombosis, control disease-related symptoms, prevent post PV MF and/or acute leukemia transformation after polycythemia vera. Almost all PV patients have non receptor type Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene mutations, typically JAK2 V617F. This drug is intended for patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), mainly including moderate to high-risk myelofibrosis (FM) (including primary myelofibrosis (PMF)), post polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF), and post thrombocytopenia myelofibrosis (PET-MF), polycythemia vera (PV), and primary thrombocytosis (ET).

Flonoltinib Maleate (FM), a triple target inhibitor of JAK2/FLT3/CDK6, has the potential to inhibit JAK2 signaling pathway activity and treat bone marrow proliferative tumors.

This trial adopts an open, randomized, parallel controlled, multicenter clinical trial design. The plan is to recruit patients with polycythemia vera who are resistant/intolerant to hydroxyurea or interferon. The study is divided into two stages: dose exploration stage: three dose groups are tentatively set, with three subjects in each group,for a total of 9 subjects; Dose extension phase: Based on the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic results of the comprehensive dose exploration phase, it is planned to select 2-3 dose groups for dose extension trials.
