Brief Summary
Myelofibrosis patients with high molecular risk mutations have an intrinsically aggressive disease with increased risk of leukemic transformation and reduced overall survival. As there are no therapies currently established in the subset of high molecular risk patients with early myelofibrosis, the study aimed to evaluate ruxolitinib in this patient population.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression Free Survival (PFS-1)
Progression free survival (PFS-1) from date of randomization until the occurrence of any of the criteria for disease progression: * Progressive splenomegaly * Circulating peripheral blast counts \> 10% * Leukemic transformation * Hb \< 10g/dl with absolute decrease of at least 3 g/dl from baseline * White blood cell (WBC) counts \> 25 x 103/ μL * MF-7 score ≥ 30 * Death from any cause
From randomization till disease progression (estimated to be assessed up 48 months)
Secondary Outcomes (10)
Time to Primary Progression (TTP)
From randomization till progression (estimated to be assessed up to 48 months)
Percentage Change in Spleen Volume From Baseline
From baseline and assessed on 12 week intervals until end of treatment (EOT)
Percentage Change in Symptoms From Baseline Using MF-7
From Baseline and assessed every 4 weeks until end of treatment
Number of Participants With Specific Subscale Scores (From Baseline) Using EQ-5D
From Baseline and assessed every 4 weeks until end of treatment
Overall Survival
Time from randomization to date of death due to any cause (estimated to be assessed up to 48 months).
