Revumenib in Patients With Myelofibrosis

NCT07734077 · John Mascarenhas · PHASE1/PHASE2 · not yet recruiting · Open Targets disease: myelofibrosis

Six questions a reader deciding whether to spend more time on this asks, each answered with flags: yes, no, or not published (hatched), each with its rule and source record. Flags are never added up into a score or a verdict, because published success rates disagree by a factor of two and more.

1. Is the biology right?

  • Somatic driver evidence: yes · JAK2, JAK3, FLT3 in myelofibrosis
    Rule: Open Targets has somatic-mutation evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets: JAK2 in myelofibrosis, 2026-11-11
    Published context: 2.3× relative success for targets with somatic (IntOGen) support in oncology (Minikel et al., Nature 2024, drug programs to 2023). A ratio between groups, not a probability for this program; mostly phase 2 to 3.
  • Human genetic evidence: yes · JAK2: curated genetic literature, somatic; JAK3: somatic; FLT3: somatic
    Rule: Any germline or somatic human genetic evidence for the target in this cancer, counted apart from animal-model and literature evidence. Source: Open Targets: JAK2 in myelofibrosis, 2026-11-11
    Published context: 2.6× relative probability of success, phase 1 to launch, with human genetic support (Minikel et al., Nature 2024, drug programs to 2023). All therapy areas, mostly germline evidence; not a probability for this program.
  • Pediatric target: yes · MEN1, KMT2A, JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, FLT3, ACVR1 on the FDA list
  • Haematologic cancer: no · Solid tumour
    Rule: From the indication, or the registry conditions when no indication matches. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07734077, 2026-11-11
    Published context: Likelihood of approval from phase 1: 7.5% haematologic vs 4.6% solid (BIO / Informa / QLS 2021, 2011–2020). Population-level, not a prediction.

2. Can the result be trusted?

  • Randomised: no · Non-randomised
    Rule: Registry allocation field. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07734077, 2026-11-11
  • Small denominator: no · 32 planned; each patient moves a rate by 100 ÷ 32 = 3.1 points
    Rule: Enrolment under 30; the arithmetic is shown, not a benchmark. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07734077, 2026-11-11
  • Primary endpoint is overall survival: no · Dose limiting toxicity (DLT); Number of Treatment related adverse events (AEs); Overall response rate (ORR) for COHORT-2
    Rule: A registered primary outcome measure names overall survival. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07734077, 2026-11-11
    Published context: Non-OS primary endpoint: odds ratio 2.79 for a positive phase 3 (Otsuka 2021, 400 phase 3 oncology trials, to 2020). Shown with the next figure: a surrogate is easier to hit, and often a weak guide to survival.
    Published context: 52% of surrogate-to-OS correlations are low (Prasad 2015, published to 2014). Shown with the figure above.
  • Results overdue: no · Primary completion expected 2028-12-01; not yet due
