1

Disease Status and/or Stage Newly diagnosed or previously treated
Protocol Title A Phase II, Prospective, Randomized, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Active-Control, Parallel Group Study to Determine the Safety of and to Select a Treatment Regimen of CC-4047 either as Single Agent or in Combination with Prednisone to Study further in Subjects with Myelofibrosis with Myeloid Metaplasia
PI Gail Roboz, MD
Contact Tania Curcio, RN
212-746-2571
Key Eligibility Subjects at least 18 years of age are eligible. Must be diagnosed with myelofibrosis requiring therapy.
Treatment Overview

Subjects will be randomized into one of 4 treatment arms to receive either 2 mg CC-4047+ prednisone placebo, 2 mg CC-4047 with prednisone, 0.5 mg CC-4047 with prednisone, or prednisone + CC-4047 placebo.

Subjects will remain on study treatment in the Double Blind Treatment Phase for up to 12 cycles (336 days; 12 cycles of 28 days each).

2

Disease Status and/or Stage Newly diagnosed or previously treated
Protocol Title An Open-Label Study of Oral CEP-701 in Patients with Polycythemia Vera or Essential Thrombocytosis with the JAK2 V617F Mutation.
PI Gail Roboz, MD
Contact Mary Crann, RN
212-746-1480
Key Eligibility Subjects at least 18 years of age are eligible. Patients must have a detectable JAK2 mutation. Subjects with ET must be receiving concomitant hydroxyurea.
Treatment Overview

Patients will be administerd a dose of 80 mg bid starting on study day 1 at the baseline visit and will continue receiving treatment until day 126.

Patients will participate in an 18-week treatment period with a 2-week follow-up period. Patients who participate in this study may elect to continue receiving treatment with CEP-701 by entering into the extension period after the visit at week 18.

3

Disease Status and/or Stage Advanced Myelofibrosis or Transformed to AML
Protocol Title Prospective Pilot Trial of Arsenic Trioxide (Trisenox) in Combination with Cytosine Arabinoside (Cytarabine) in Patients with Advanced or Transformed Myelofibrosis
PI Gail Roboz, MD
Contact Tania Curcio, RN
212-746-2571
Key Eligibility Patients at least 18 years of age with a documented history of myelofibrosis or myelofibrosis transformed to acute myeloid leukemia. Patients must not have had prior cytotoxic chemotherpy for AML or MDS.
Treatment Overview

Cytarabine will be administered at a dose of 10 mg/m2 subcutaneously twice daily from days 1-14. Triseonx will be administered at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg on days 1-5 and days 8-12. One treatment cycle consists of 2 weeks, with 14 days of cytarabine and 10 days of Trisenox.

Patients may continue to receive study treatment for a period of up to 2 years as long as stable disease or clinical benefit and absence of unacceptable toxicity can be demonstrated.

4

Disease Status and/or Stage Previously Treated or Newly Diagnosed Myelofibrosis
Protocol Title Phase II Study of Bevacizumab (AvastinŽ) in Myelofibrosis (MPD-RC-103)
PI Ellen Ritchie, MD
Contact Mary Crann, RN
212-746-1480
Key Eligibility Diagnosis of primary myelofibrosis, essential thrombocythemia related myelofibrosis, or polycythemia vera related myelofibrosis requiring therapy, including those previously treated and relapsed or refractory, or, if newly diagnosed, with intermediate or high risk.
Treatment Overview

Bevacizumab will be given in the outpatient setting as an intravenous infusion (IV) every 3 weeks at the dose of 15 mg/kg. A 3 weeks period is considered one course. Subjects may be enrolled in the study for approximately 18 months.

5

Disease Status and/or Stage Previously Treated or Newly Diagnosed Myelofibrosis
Protocol Title A Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase I/II Study of CEP-701 (Lestaurtinib) in Adults with Myelofibrosis (MPD-RC-104)
PI Gail Roboz, MD
Contact Mary Crann, RN
212-746-1480
Key Eligibility Diagnosis of primary myelofibrosis, essential thrombocythemia related myelofibrosis, or polycythemia vera related myelofibrosis requiring therapy.
Treatment Overview

Cohorts of 3 subjects will receive escalating doses of CEP-701 until the Maximum Tolerated Dose is determined. Dosing will begin at 80 mg twice a day. Subjects may receive study drug for 24 weeks or longer depending on response.
