Aaron T. Gerds, MD, MS, speaks with Healio about the safety of pacritinib in patients with myelofibrosis and severe thrombocytopenia.
The retrospective analysis, presented at ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, pooled data from the phase two dosefinding PAC203 study and phase 3 PERSIST-2 study.
“The key piece here is that sick patients are sick, and that includes patients who are thrombocytopenic who have myelofibrosis,” said Gerds, assistant professor of medicine at Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Institute and medical director of Case Comprehensive Cancer Center.
