Trial Outcomes

Blastic MF/AML Participants: Percentage of Participants With Overall Response

For this pilot study, overall response was defined as achievement of a leukemic response (i.e. a clinically meaningful reduction in Blast cells). This was quantified as <5% peripheral blood and bone marrow blasts % that lasts for at least two months. Data is reported separately for this arm where response was assessed by this specific criterion. (NCT01731951)
Timeframe: Up to first 9 cycles of treatment (each cycle was of 28 days for Arm D)
