Full eligibility criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:

* Participants have diagnosis of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) or post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (post-PV MF) or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (post-ET MF) according to the International Consensus Classification (ICC) of Myeloid Neoplasms and Acute Leukemias 2022

* Blasts ≥ 5% in bone marrow if results available at screening or history of accelerated phase (AP) or leukemic transformation
* History of a malignancy (other than MF, PPV-MF or PET-MF) in the past 3 years in need of systemic treatment
* Received any approved or investigational agent other than hydroxyurea or anagrelide for the treatment of MF within 14 days of first dose of study treatment or within 5 half-lives of the approved or investigational agent, whichever is longer

About the study

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate whether treatment with pelabresib in combination with ruxolitinib leads to improved clinical outcomes compared to ruxolitinib alone in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF), or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (PET-MF) who have not previously received Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor therapy.
