E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of rusfertide in subjects with polycythemia vera in maintaining hematocrit control. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Male and female subjects aged 18 (or the minimum country specific age of consent if >18) years or older. 3. Meet revised 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for the diagnosis of polycythemia vera and have either JAK2 V617F mutation or JAK2 exon 12 mutation 4. Phlebotomy requiring defined as: a. At least 3 phlebotomies due to inadequate hematocrit control in 6 months before randomization or at least 5 phlebotomies due to inadequate hematocrit control in 1 year before randomization, and 5. CBC values immediately prior to randomization: a. Hematocrit <45%, b. WBC 4000/µL to 20,000/µL (inclusive), and c. Platelets 100,000/µL to 1,000,000/µL (inclusive). 11. Subjects receiving cytoreductive therapy at randomization must be on a stable PV therapy regimen 12. Subjects treated with phlebotomy alone at randomization must have stopped cytoreductive therapy 2 to 6 months before screening. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Clinically meaningful laboratory abnormalities at Screening 2. Subjects who require phlebotomy at hematocrit levels lower than 45%. 4. Clinically significant thrombosis (e.g., deep vein thrombosis or splenic vein thrombosis) within 2 months prior to randomization. 5. Active or chronic bleeding within 2 months prior to randomization. 10. History of invasive malignancies within the last 5 years, except localized cured prostate cancer and cervical cancer. 11. Subjects with non-invasive non-melanomatous (e.g., squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma) skin cancer during screening unless adequately treated before randomization. 15. Received busulfan, pipobroman or 32Phosphorus within 7 months prior to screening. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Proportion of subjects achieving a response starting at Week 20 through Week 32 (inclusive) who receive rusfertide compared to placebo. A response is defined as absence of phlebotomy eligibility. Phlebotomy eligibility is defined as either: • a confirmed hematocrit ≥45% and that is at least 3% higher than the baseline hematocrit (value immediately prior to randomization at Week 0); or • a hematocrit ≥48%.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Week 20 through Week 32 (inclusive) |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
1. Mean number of phlebotomies between Week 0 through Week 32 (inclusive). 2. Proportion of subjects with all hematocrit values <45% between Week 0 through Week 32 (inclusive). 3. Mean change from baseline in total fatigue score based on PROMIS® Short Form 8a at Week 32. 4. Mean change from baseline in total score based on MFSAF v4.0 at Week 32. |
