Bomedemstat vs Hydroxyurea for Essential Thrombocythemia (MK-3543-007)

Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bomedemstat compared with hydroxyurea in cytoreductive therapy naïve essential thrombocythemia (ET) participants for whom cytoreductive therapy is indicated. Its primary objective is to compare bomedemstat to hydroxyurea with respect to durable clinicohematologic response (DCHR). The primary hypothesis is that bomedemstat is superior to hydroxyurea with respect to DCHR.

  • * Participants with history of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection are eligible if HCV viral load is undetectable
  • * History of any illness/impairment of gastrointestinal function that might interfere with drug absorption
