Study summary

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, two-arm, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of selinexor versus treatment per physician's choice (PC) in participants with myelofibrosis (MF) who had at least 6 months of treatment with a Janus kinase (JAK)1/2 inhibitor. Study participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either receive selinexor or physicians' choice of treatment.

  • Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and agree to use highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study and for at least 90 days after the last dose of selinexor, or for the duration as stated on the label (SmPC/USPI) for those on the comparator drug (physician's choice arm). Childbearing potential excludes: Age >50 years and naturally amenorrhoeic for >1 year, or previous bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, or hysterectomy.
  • Male participants who are sexually active must use highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study and for at least 90 days after the last dose of selinexor, or for the duration as stated on the label (SmPC/USPI) for those on the comparator drug (physician's choice arm). Male participants must agree not to donate sperm during the study treatment period.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • >5% blasts in peripheral blood or >10% blasts in bone marrow (i.e., accelerated phase).
  • Previous treatment with selinexor or other exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitors.
  • Use of any standard or experimental anti-MF therapy \<21 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (hydroxyurea or growth factors are allowed).
  • Impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that could significantly alter the absorption of selinexor (Example: vomiting, or diarrhea that is Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade >1).
  • Received strong cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inhibitors ≤7 days prior to selinexor dosing or strong CYP3A inducers ≤14 days prior to selinexor dosing.
  • Major surgery \<28 days prior to cycle 1 day 1 (C1D1).
  • Uncontrolled (ie, clinically unstable) infection requiring parenteral antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals within 7 days prior to first dose of study treatment; however, prophylactic use of these agents is acceptable (including parenteral).
  • Any life-threatening illness, medical condition, or organ system dysfunction which, in the Investigator's opinion, could compromise the participants safety, prevent the participant from giving informed consent, or being compliant with the study procedures.
  • Female participants who are pregnant or lactating.
  • Participants with contraindications to use of selinexor or all the drugs intended to be used in the comparative treatment arm.
