- Abstract
The JAK2 inhibitor, fedratinib, significantly improved splenomegaly and myelofibrosis (MF) symptoms vs placebo as first-line treatment in the JAKARTA trial and after prior ruxolitinib in the JAKARTA2 trial. We determined PFS and OS with fedratinib 400 mg/day in these studies. Patients had intermediate- or high-risk MF. JAKARTA patients were randomized to fedratinib 400 mg/day, fedratinib 500 mg/day, or placebo. After six cycles (earlier if disease progression [PD]), placebo-randomized patients could crossover to fedratinib. In JAKARTA2, all patients with MF resistant/intolerant to RUX initially received fedratinib 400 mg/day. PFS was time from randomization to PD/death. PFS/OS in the placebo arm of JAKARTA included time after crossover to fedratinib. Both trials were terminated early due to a clinical hold in 2013; ongoing patients were censored for PFS/OS. In JAKARTA, 96 patients were randomized to fedratinib 400 mg and 96 to placebo; 71 placebo-randomized patients (74%) crossed over to fedratinib. At study termination, survival follow-up halted for 74 fedratinib-randomized pts (77%) and 65 placebo-randomized pts (68%). Median (m) PFS was prolonged with fedratinib vs placebo: 23.2 vs 17.5 months, respectively (HR 0.42 [95%CI 0.23–0.76]; P=0.004); 1-year PFS rates were 83% vs 67%. mOS was not reached (NR) in either arm (HR 0.57 [0.30–1.10]; P=0.094); 1-year survival was 92% with fedratinib and 86% with placebo. Of 97 patients enrolled in JAKARTA2, 79 (81%) were censored for survival at study termination. mPFS was 13.3 months (95%CI 8.4–17.1), and mOS was NR (17.1 months-NR), with a 1-year PFS of 59% and 1-year survival rate of 84%. Fedratinib 400 mg/day significantly improved PFS vs placebo as first-line MF treatment. Separation of PFS/OS curves between fedratinib and placebo in JAKARTA, despite substantial fedratinib crossover for placebo-randomized patients, suggests early fedratinib treatment is better. In JAKARTA2, mPFS, mOS, and 1-year survival compare favorably with findings in similar patients post-RUX (6.0 months, 11.1 months, and 47%, respectively; Mascarenhas 2020). The FREEDOM and FREEDOM2 trials of fedratinib are ongoing.
