ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Spleen ResponseWeek 24Spleen response rate is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved ≥ 35% reduction in spleen volume at Week 24 from baseline performed by the IRC using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Symptom ResponseWeek 24
Symptom response rate is defined as percentage of participants who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in total symptom score (TSS) at Week 24 from baseline as measured by the modified Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF) version 2.0 diary. The MFSAF assessed following symptoms due to Myelofibrosis (MF): night sweats, itchiness, abdominal discomfort, pain under ribs on left side, feeling of fullness, bone or muscle pain and degree of inactivity. Each item is scored on a scale of 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable) with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms and greater inactivity. The total score ranges from 0-70, where 0 indicates absent/as good as it can be and 70 indicates worst imaginable/as bad as it can be.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Overall Response as Per Modified 2013 International Working Group - Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Research and Treatment (IWG-MRT) CriteriaEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)

PR: bone marrow: normocellular: \<5% blasts ≤ Grade 1 fibrosis or not meeting bone marrow remission criteria; Immature myeloid cells in PB: \<2%; Hb: 8.5 -\<10 g/dL-ULN or 10 g/dL-ULN; neutrophils: 1\*10\^9/L-ULN; platelets: 50 -\<100\*10\^9/L-ULN; spleen: ≥35% splenic volumetric reduction by MRI or not palpable; EMH: no non-hepato-splenic EMH;symptoms: \>50% improvement in symptom score per modified MFSAF v2.0 TSS. All response categories, benefit must last \>12 weeks to qualify as response.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Clinical Improvement (CI) Per Modified 2013 IWG-MRT CriteriaEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)
CI per the modified 2013 IWG-MRT criteria defined as the achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without progressive disease or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia (Increase in severity of anemia constitutes the occurrence of new transfusion dependency or a ≥ 2.0 g/dL decrease in hemoglobin level from pretreatment baseline that lasts for at least 12 weeks. Increase in severity of thrombocytopenia or neutropenia is defined as a 2-grade decline, from pretreatment baseline, in platelet count or ANC, according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03. In addition, assignment to CI requires a minimum platelet count of ≥ 25,000\*10\^9/L and ANC of ≥ 0.5\*10\^9/L.) For all response categories, benefit must last for \>12 weeks to qualify as a response.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Clinical Response Per Modified 2013 IWG-MRTEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)
Clinical response rate (CRR) was defined as percentage of participants who achieved CR, PR, or CI per modified 2013 IWG-MRT criteria. CR: bone marrow: normocellular \<5% blasts, ≤Grade 1 fibrosis; immature myeloid cells in PB: \<2%; Hb: 10 g/dL-ULN; neutrophils: 1\*10\^9/L-ULN; platelets: 100\*10\^9/L-ULN; spleen: not palpable and ≤350ml volume; EMH: no non-hepato-splenic EMH; symptoms: \>70% improvement in symptom score per modified MFSAF v2.0 TSS. PR: bone marrow: normocellular: \<5% blasts ≤ Grade 1 fibrosis or not meeting bone marrow remission criteria; Immature myeloid cells in PB: \<2%; Hb: 8.5 -\<10 g/dL-ULN or 10 g/dL-ULN; neutrophils: 1\*10\^9/L-ULN; platelets: 50 -\<100\*10\^9/L-ULN; spleen: ≥35% splenic volumetric reduction by MRI or not palpable; EMH: no non-hepato-splenic EMH; symptoms: \>50% improvement in symptom score per modified MFSAF v2.0 TSS. CI: achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without PD or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Spleen Response Per Modified 2013 IWG-MRT CriteriaEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)
Spleen response per modified 2013 IWG-MRT criteria. Spleen response: a baseline splenomegaly that is palpable at 5-10 cm, below the left costal margin (LCM), becomes not palpable or a baseline splenomegaly that is palpable at \>10 cm, below the LCM, decreases by ≥50%; A spleen response requires confirmation by MRI showing \>35% spleen volume reduction (SVR). For response categories, benefit must last for \>12 weeks to qualify as a response. Participants who achieved CI per modified IWG-MRT criteria considered as response with clinical improvement. Participants who met criteria for spleen response but had worsening cytopenias (and therefore did not meet criteria for clinical improvement) were considered to have a response without clinical improvement. The clinical improvement in IWG-MRT is defined as the achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without progressive disease or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Symptoms Response Per Modified 2013 IWG-MRT CriteriaEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)
Symptoms response per modified 2013 IWG-MRT criteria. Symptoms Response: a ≥50% reduction in the modified MFSAF v2.0 TSS. For response category, benefit must last for \>12 weeks to qualify as a response. Participants who achieved CI per modified IWG-MRT criteria considered as response with clinical improvement. Participants who met criteria for symptom response but had worsening cytopenias (and therefore did not meet criteria for clinical improvement) were considered to have a response without clinical improvement. The clinical improvement in IWG-MRT is defined as the achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without progressive disease or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Anemia Response Per Modified 2013 IWG-MRT CriteriaEvery 12 weeks up to Week 48 then every 24 weeks (approximately up to 2.3 years)
Anemia response per modified 2013 IWG-MRT criteria. Anemia response is defined as participants with baseline Hb \<10 g/dL but not meeting strict criteria for transfusion dependency: a ≥ 2 g/dL increase in Hb; Transfusion dependent participants at baseline: becoming transfusion independent. Transfusion independence is defined as absence of any pRBC transfusions for at least 12 "rolling" weeks. For response categories, benefit must last for \>12 weeks to qualify as a response. Participants who achieved CI per modified IWG-MRT criteria considered as response with clinical improvement. Participants who met criteria for anemia response but had worsening cytopenias (and therefore did not meet criteria for clinical improvement) were considered to have a response without clinical improvement. The clinical improvement in IWG-MRT is defined as the achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without progressive disease or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia.
SecondaryDuration of Response (PR/CI/RWCI) as Per IWG-MRT CriteriaFrom date of initial documentation of a response to the date of first documented evidence of PD or death, whichever occurs first (approximately up to 2.3 years)
Duration of response (PR/CI/RWCI) is the duration from the date of initial documentation of a response to date of first documented evidence of PD or death, whichever occurs first. PR: BM: normocellular: \<5% blasts ≤Grade 1 fibrosis/not meeting BM remission criteria; IMC in PB: \<2%; Hb: 8.5 -\<10 g/dL-ULN or 10 g/dL- ULN; neutrophils: 1\*10\^9/L-ULN; platelets: 50 -\<100\*10\^9/L-ULN; spleen: ≥35% splenic volumetric reduction by MRI/not palpable; EMH: no non-hepato-splenic EMH; symptoms: \>50% improvement in symptom score. CI: achievement of anemia, spleen or symptoms response without PD or increase in severity of anemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia. RWCI: Participants who met criteria for response but had worsening cytopenias. PD: Splenomegaly requires MRI showing ≥25% increase in spleen volume.
SecondaryOverall SurvivalDay 1 of Cycle 1 (each cycle was of 21 days), up to the date of the participant's death (approximately up to 4.1 years)
Overall Survival is measured from the date of Cycle 1, Day 1 to the date of the participants death. If the participant's was alive or the vital status was unknown, OS was censored at the date that the participant is last known to be alive.
