Protocol Title 
An Open-Label, Randomized, Phase 2 Dose-Finding Study of Pacritinib 
in Patients with Primary Myelofibrosis, Post-Polycythemia Vera 
Myelofibrosis, or Post-Essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis 
Previously Treated with Ruxolitinib 
Version 
Amendment 6
Study Phase 
2 
Primary Objective 
1. To determine a recommended dosage of pacritinib for further clinical studies 
Secondary Objectives  
1. To examine the dose–response relationship for efficacy, as measured by spleen volume reduction 
(SVR) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI [preferred]) or computed tomography (CT) and total 
symptom score (TSS) using the MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 
2. To examine the dose–response relationship for safety with a focus on adverse events (AE) of interest 
3. To further characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of pacritinib 
 
Study Design 
This is a dose-finding study in patients with primary or secondary MF (DIPSS risk score of Intermediate-1 to 
High-Risk) who were previously treated with ruxolitinib. The study is designed to support a pacritinib dosage 
selection decision. Three dosages will be evaluated, with patients randomized 1:1:1 to pacritinib 100 mg QD, 
pacritinib 100 mg BID, or pacritinib 200 mg BID. Randomization will be stratified by baseline platelet count 
(≤50,000/µL; >50,000/µL and ≤100,000/µL; and >100,000/µL). The most recent platelet count obtained prior 
to start of treatment will be the basis of stratification by baseline platelet count. Assigned treatment will 
continue until the patient experiences progressive disease, intolerable AEs, withdraws consent, or until the 
assigned treatment arm is closed. No study treatment crossover will be allowed. All patients should complete 
all visit procedures through Week 24, including patients who stop pacritinib treatment or have protocol-
defined progressive disease prior to Week 24, unless patient withdraws consent, dies, undergoes splenic 
irradiation or splenectomy, or initiates any non-protocol-directed anti-myelofibrosis treatment.  Following 
regulatory, EC or IRB approval of Amendment 6, study treatment for patients at and beyond the week-24 
timepoint will terminate.  Study assessments will cease following the End-of-Treatment (EOT) or 30-day post 
EOT visit, as applicable.  Patients who are benefiting from therapy as of study treatment termination may be 
allowed to continue receiving pacritinib under single patient expanded access or named patient programs at 
the investigator’s discretion and subject to regulatory, Ethics or IRB approval.  
The dosage selection process will be based on efficacy and safety parameters, including model-based dose–
response.  
This study will utilize planned frequent monitoring by an IDMC.  At a minimum, the IDMC will consist of 
1 board-certified hematologist, 1 board-certified cardiologist, and 1 biostatistician experienced in adaptive 
design clinical trials.  The roles and responsibilities of the IDMC will be fully defined within the IDMC 
charter, including, but not limited to:  
 
Review safety data across arms, focusing on bleeding events, cardiac events, and deaths  
 
Evaluate cumulative safety as described in Section 11 
 
Make independent recommendations to the Sponsor on study continuation (continue without 
modification, continue with modification, or terminate) and on patient enrollment (hold or stop 
enrollment, enroll additional patients, close arm) as described in Section 11 
 
Make independent recommendation to the Sponsor on pacritinib dosage for further study  
The first IDMC meeting is planned to occur once 18 patients have been randomized and treated for 12 weeks 
and will meet approximately quarterly thereafter.  In addition to the IDMC, there will be an Independent 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 7 of 83 
Adjudication Committee (IAC) that will review all grade 4 or 5 cardiac and bleeding events to assess the 
principal condition that resulted in the outcome.  The IAC will provide their assessment to the IDMC.  
Additional details on the IAC will be provided in the IAC charter. 
The determination of a dose or dosages of pacritinib for further study will be based on efficacy, safety, dose–
response, and PK/PD exposure–response relationship data after all enrolled patients reach Week 24 (or 
discontinue the study). Approximately 150 patients total or up to 50 patients per arm may be enrolled.  Spleen 
volume will be measured by MRI (preferred) or CT at baseline and Weeks 12 and 24.  Patient-reported 
disease-related symptoms as assessed by the validated Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) instrument MPN-
SAF TSS 2.0 will be collected daily using an electronic diary and evaluated as part of the dose–response 
relationship.  DNA samples will also be collected for analysis of mutations associated with myelofibrosis at 
baseline and Week 24.  In the event of 2 treatment-emergent Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse 
Events (CTCAE) grade ≥4 cardiac AEs or 2 treatment-emergent CTCAE grade ≥4 hemorrhage AEs in the 
same treatment arm, suspend study enrollment and the IDMC will be convened to review the events including 
the IAC’s assessment of the events. If the IDMC confirms the nature and grade of the events together with a 
relationship to study drug, the IDMC may recommend closure of one or more treatment arms. This 
recommendation is non-binding.  The FDA and other Competent Authorities will be notified of any IDMC 
meeting that is convened under these circumstances and the resultant recommendation will be reported to the 
FDA within 2 business days. The MHRA will be informed via a substantial amendment. In the event one or 
more arms are suspended or terminated for a safety observation, randomization into the arm(s) will be halted 
immediately, however patients who are experiencing benefit, in the opinion of the investigator and Sponsor, 
and who were randomized to an arm that is suspended or terminated, may continue treatment. 
Safety will be monitored with physical examinations, clinical laboratory assessments (including hematologic, 
chemistry, and coagulation testing), and cardiac monitoring (including ECG and echocardiogram testing); 
specified study treatment dosage modifications will be followed to address identified abnormalities.  Adverse 
event data will be collected throughout the study.  
The Sponsor will collect blood samples for PK assessment from all patients in each dosing arm at the 
following timepoints:  
 
Sparse Sampling (all patients): End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours 
(predose), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
 
Dense Sampling (performed at selected sites until approximately 6 to 8 patients per dose arm have 
completed PK evaluation, at which point all further patients will have PK evaluated by sparse 
sample collection): Week 1 Day 1: 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours 
(± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose and 24 hours postdose (within 30 minutes 
before the Day 2 dose) , End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours (predose), 
2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) 
postdose  
The PK parameters, minimum concentration observed, maximum concentration observed, and area under the 
curve will be determined and summarized using descriptive statistics for each pacritinib dosage arm.  
Exposure-response analyses will be conducted on both safety and efficacy populations in the study.  PD 
samples will be analyzed for biomarkers associated with the JAK/STAT pathway. 
The maximum duration of trial participation for an individual patient will be approximately 24 weeks. The 
estimated duration of the entire study is approximately 2 years if the maximum number of patients are 
enrolled. The definition of End of Trial for the PAC203 study is Last Visit of the Last Subject (LVLS).

Therapies, 
Including 
Procedures 
Ruxolitinib should not be administered concurrently with pacritinib at any time. 
Although there is no washout period required for ruxolitinib prior to the start of dosing 
with pacritinib, it should be understood that because of the difference in half-life 
between ruxolitinib (3 hours Jakafi package insert) and pacritinib (approximately 
40 hours), there will be a period of 10 to 14 days following the discontinuation of 
ruxolitinib and the start of dosing with pacritinib, during which pacritinib has not yet

Page 10 of 83 
reached steady state and during which patients may be at increased risk of ruxolitinib 
withdrawal, particularly after high doses of ruxolitinib (eg, more than 10 mg BID or 
20 mg QD). For this reason, patients who are on more than 10 mg BID (or 20 mg QD) 
of ruxolitinib at the time of consent for this study must taper the ruxolitinib dose down 
to 10 mg BID or lower and remain stable on the reduced dose for at least 2 weeks prior 
to starting pacritinib. Tapering should be done per institutional practice and may be 
done with concurrent addition of prednisone during the screening period. In addition to 
any steroids used during the screening period, the protocol permits short-term use (up 
to 14 days) of corticosteroids and/or hydroxyurea as prophylaxis or treatment of 
symptomatic ruxolitinib withdrawal during the first month of treatment with pacritinib. 
Supportive care therapies, except when prohibited by any of the below provisions, are 
permitted, including the use of low-dose aspirin. Corticosteroids (up to 20 mg/day of 
prednisone or equivalent) and/or hydroxyurea may be used for up to 2 weeks during 
the first month of treatment with pacritinib to reduce the risk or control symptoms of 
ruxolitinib withdrawal. Treatments for MF that might be considered supportive care are 
only allowable with medical monitor approval prior to administration.  
The following therapies and procedures are prohibited throughout the study: 
 
Chemotherapy, interferon, or other treatment for MF, with the exception of up to 
2 weeks of corticosteroids ( up to 20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) and/or 
2 weeks of hydroxyurea as needed to reduce the risk of or treat the symptoms of 
ruxolitinib withdrawal  
 
Antiplatelet or anticoagulation agents, with the exception of ≤ 100 mg/day of 
aspirin 
 
Growth factor therapies, including erythropoietin and thrombopoietin 
 
Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and strong CYP450 inducers, except as needed to treat 
AEs, with medical monitor approval 
 
Any drugs with significant potential for QTc prolongation, except as needed to 
treat AEs, with medical monitor approval 
 
Splenic irradiation or splenectomy 
Also refer to the Pacritinib Dosage Modifications section for guidelines on treatment of 
AEs. 
Safety 
Assessments 
Patients will have safety assessment as as described below until approval of 
Amendment 6, at which point safety assessments will cease following the End-of-
Treatment (EOT) or 30-day post EOT visit, as applicable. 
 
Adverse Events 
AEs will be identified and reported to the Sponsor, and the clinically indicated 
diagnostic, monitoring, treatment, and follow-up measures will be employed.  
Pregnancy and overdose cases shall be reported as SAEs, irrespective of whether they 
meet seriousness criteria or not.   
 
ECG 
A 12-lead ECG (collected in triplicate) will be checked at screening, baseline, the end 
of Week 4, the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, and 
every 3 months while in the follow up period, including QTc calculation (and corrected 
by the Fredericia method), while on study treatment and 30 days after the last dose of 
study treatment.  Pacritinib dosage modifications and follow-up monitoring for 
clinically significant ECG changes will be implemented as per the guidelines for “QTc 
Prolongation, Decreased Cardiac Ejection Fraction, and Other Cardiac Toxicities”.  
Additional ECG testing shall be done as clinically indicated.   
 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 11 of 83 
Ejection Fraction 
Ejection fraction will be checked at screening, the end of Week 4, the end of Week 12, 
the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, and every 6 months while in the 
follow up period, and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment (such as with 
echocardiogram or MUGA scan).  Pacritinib dosage modifications will be implemented 
for clinically significant ejection fraction changes as per the guidelines for “QTc 
Prolongation, Decreased Cardiac Ejection Fraction, and Other Cardiac Toxicities”.  If 
pacritinib treatment is resumed after holding for ejection fraction abnormality, ejection 
fraction should be reassessed about 14 days later, then at least every 3 months as per 
the above schedule.  Additional ejection fraction testing shall be done as clinically 
indicated. 
 
Coagulation Testing 
Coagulation testing will include protim (PT),  international normalized ratio (INR), 
partial thromboplastin time (PTT), and thrombin time (TT) at screening, baseline, the 
end of Week 4, the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, 
every 3 months during the follow up period, and 30 days after the last dose of study 
treatment. Additional coagulation testing should be done as clinically indicated. 
These results will be taken into account, together with baseline platelet counts and 
prior medical history of bleeding, to help guide ongoing hematologic monitoring of 
platelet counts and clinical monitoring for bleeding.  Pacritinib dosage modifications 
will be implemented for clinically significant AEs identified with this testing per the 
below guidelines for “Pacritinib-Related Nonhematologic Toxicities Other than QTc 
Prolongation, Decreased Cardiac Ejection Fraction, or Diarrhea”.  
 
Hematology 
Hematology parameters including CBC, differential, platelet count and hemoglobin 
A1C will be evaluated at screening, baseline, the end of Week 4, the end of Week 12, 
the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, every 3 months during the follow up 
period, and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.  Blood samples drawn at 
unscheduled visits for the assessment of hematology parameters should be submitted to 
the central laboratory for assessment in addition to any local laboratories needed for 
timely decisions regarding patient care.   
For patients with baseline platelet count of ≤ 50,000/L, the platelet count will be 
monitored weekly by the central laboratory for the first 8 weeks then monthly if counts 
remain ≤ 50,000/µL.  Samples for platelet counts must be submitted to the central 
laboratory for analysis, but in addition can be analyzed locally for assessment and 
management of patients in real time. Additional platelet count testing should be done 
as clinically indicated.  Pacritinib dosage modifications will be implemented for 
clinically significant AEs identified with this testing per the below guidelines for 
“Hematologic Toxicities and Related Complications.”   
 
Serum Chemistry 
Serum chemistry parameters (ALT/SGPT and AST/SGOT, alkaline phosphatase, 
bilirubin [total, direct, and indirect], creatinine, LDH, sodium, potassium, chloride, 
bicarbonate, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, BUN/urea, albumin, amylase, lipase, 
glucose, cholesterol, uric acid, and high sensitivity CRP) will be evaluated by a central 
laboratory at screening, baseline, and as clinically indicated and will include measures 
of hepatic and renal function and dysfunction.  Blood samples drawn at unscheduled 
visits for serum chemistry evaluation should be submitted to the central laboratory for 
assessment in addition to any local laboratories needed for timely decisions regarding 
patient care.  Pacritinib dosage modifications will be implemented for clinically 
significant AEs identified with this testing per the stated guidelines for “Pacritinib-

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 12 of 83 
Related Nonhematologic Toxicities Other than QTc Prolongation, Decreased Cardiac 
Ejection Fraction, or Diarrhea”. 
Pacritinib Dosage 
Modifications 
Pacritinib dosage may be interrupted or modified for hematologic toxicities, 
hemorrhage, severe infections, cardiac toxicities including QTc interval prolongation 
and reduction in ejection fraction, diarrhea, and other pacritinib-related 
nonhematologic toxicities.  Pacritinib dosage may also be held for invasive procedures.  
Refer to Section 6.5 for pacritinib dosage management guidelines.   
STATISTICAL METHODS 
The following variables will be used to evaluate efficacy and safety.  
Efficacy 
 
 
The primary efficacy variable for dosage selection is the percent reduction in spleen volume from 
baseline as measured by MRI or CT at Weeks 12 and 24.  
 
Other supportive measures for evaluation as part of the dose–response relationship include: the 
percentage of patients who achieve at least 35% reduction in spleen volume; % TSS reduction from 
baseline;and the percentage of patients with at least 50% reduction in TSS.  
 
Safety 
 
The primary safety measure for dosage selection is the percentage of patients with CTCAE grade ≥3 
cardiac AEs (Standardized MedDRA Query [SMQ]), CTCAE grade ≥3 hemorrhage AEs (SMQ), 
CTCAE grade ≥4 thrombocytopenia toxicity (central laboratory based), or CTCAE grade ≥4 anemia 
toxicity (central laboratory based).  
 
All other safety data including AEs, death, and clinical laboratory measures will be used as supportive 
measures for evaluation of pacritinib dose-safety relationship. 
There is no formal hypothesis to be tested in this study.  Efficacy, safety, and PK/PD data will be summarized 
by dosage group using descriptive statistics.  The dose–response and dose-exposure-response relationship 
will be explored using a modeling approach.

Screening procedures must be completed between Days -35 and -7, before treatment initiation, with the exception of the screening (baseline) MRI or CT scan, which must 
be performed between Days -10 and -4. 
2 
Day 1 assessments are required to be performed prior to initiation of study treatment and can be performed up to 24 hours prior to initiation of study treatment.  At the 
baseline visit, all patients will be provided with a prescription (and instructions to fill that prescription) for loperamide (Imodium) or a similarly effective antidiarrheal drug.  
Patients will be instructed to start taking the prescribed loperamide or other antidiarrheal drug per package and physician instructions as soon as they notice any change in 
frequency or consistency of bowel movements after starting study treatment. 
3 
The study visit at week 4 has a scheduling window of ±3 days; however, all procedures other than MRI or CT should be performed on the same day’s visit within ±24 hours. 
4 
The study visits at weeks 12 and 24 have a scheduling window of ±7 days; however, all procedures other than MRI or CT should be performed on the same day’s visit 
within ±24 hours.

5 
The End of Treatment visit is scheduled within 7 days after terminating study treatment. A final visit to assess events is scheduled 30 ±3 days after the last dose of study 
treatment.  If treatment ends at a regularly scheduled visit, these procedures may be performed at that time. 
6 
Informed consent must be obtained before any study-specific washout.  This may require 2 weeks (A 2-week washout will be required for anticoagulation agents, antiplatelet 
agents (except aspirin doses of ≤ 100 mg/day), strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, strong CYP450 inducers, and QTc prolonging agents) or 28 days if patient was taking any 
experimental therapies.  Patients not requiring washout may sign the Informed Consent Form at any time prior to screening procedures. 
7 
Vital signs include blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, temperature, and body weight.   
8 
Height should be measured only at baseline. Spleen size assessed by physical examination as the distance below the LCM at the midclavicular line.   
9 
A single 12-lead ECG (collected in triplicate) will be performed at screening and within 1 hour prior to dosing and at 4 hours (± 10 minutes) post dosing on Day 1 of week 1 
and at the end of weeks 4, 12, and 24, 30 days postterm, and as clinically indicated.  ECGs will also be collected pre-dose during the post 24-week follow-up visits within 
1 hour prior to dosing. The ECGs will be read centrally by blinded independent cardiologist.  
10 
Hematology includes CBC, differential, platelet count and hemoglobin A1C. For patients with baseline platelet count of ≤ 50,000/L, platelet count will be monitored weekly 
for the first 8 weeks, then monthly if counts remain ≤ 50,000/L.  These platelet counts must be analyzed by the central laboratory, but local laboratory test results may be 
used for assessment and management of patients in real time.  Samples collected for local testing must also be submitted to the central laboratory and the results captured in 
the clinical database. Additional hematology testing should be done as clinically indicated. 
11 
Eligibility may be based on local or central laboratory values. Central serum chemistry values will include: ALT/SGPT, AST/SGOT, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin (total, 
direct, and indirect) creatinine, LDH, sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, BUN/urea, albumin, amylase, lipase, glucose, cholesterol, 
uric acid,  and high sensitivity CRP.  Any samples collected at any visits must be analyzed by the central laboratory, although local laboratories may additionally be used for 
patient assessment and management in real time.   
12 
All women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a pregnancy test at screening. For WOCBP in the UK, the screening pregnancy test must occur no longer than 
7 days before the first study drug administration and again at the End of Week 4 visit. Additional pregnancy tests every 12 weeks while on study treatment may be mandated 
as a country-specific requirement. 
13 
Unscheduled imaging studies may be performed at physician discretion if he/she considers disease-related symptoms to be worsening.  All images generated as part of 
unscheduled evaluations must be submitted by the investigator for central review. Images generated as part of unscheduled evaluations may also be read locally if treatment 
discontinuation is being considered. MRI is the preferred modality; CT scan will be used for patients who cannot undergo MRI, or for whom MRI is not available.  Imaging 
should be performed without contrast agent.  For each patient, the same imaging modality should be used throughout the study.  An independent radiologist, blinded to all 
patient and site identifiers and treatment assignments, will measure spleen volume.

14 
Patient-reported disease-related symptoms as assessed by the MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 will be collected daily up to 48 weeks using an electronic diary starting at least 7 days prior 
to starting pacritinib treatment. After 48 weeks, the same questionnaire with 7 day recall period (paper) will be used at each visit for the rest of the study.  
15 
The Sponsor will collect PK samples from all patients in each dosing arm at the End of Week 12 and End of Week 24 visits: 30 minutes to 0 hours (predose), 4 hours 
(± 10 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose.  Dense PK sampling will be performed at selected sites for approximately 6 to 8 patients total per dose arm on Week 1 
Day 1: 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (±10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose and 24 hours postdose (within 30 minutes before the Day 
2 dose), End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours (predose), 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours 
(± 15 minutes) postdose. In addition, PD samples will be collected on Day 1 (Baseline), Week 12, and Week 24 within 30 minutes prior to 0 hours (predose).  Given the 
sampling schedule, PK and PD samples should be collected before and after the morning dose for patients taking pacritinib twice a day (BID). 
16 
At time of dispensing, the lot number for capsules dispensed and the number of capsules in bottle(s) should be recorded.  Instruct patient to bring bottle(s) to every visit.  
When a patient returns one or more bottles, count the remaining capsules in all bottle(s).  
17 
Baseline symptoms and AEs: Patients will be evaluated from the time of signing the Informed Consent Form through 30 days following last dose of study treatment .  Each 
SAE assessed as related to study treatment or study procedures will be collected through 30 days following last dose of study treatment and will be followed until it is 
resolved, returns to baseline, stabilizes, or the patient is lost to follow-up, whichever occurs first. 
18 
Concomitant medications are recorded at the post-24-week follow-up assessments for those patients continuing on pacritinib. 
19 
Disease directed therapy includes any therapy that is specifically directed at controlling a disease or its symptoms and does not include standard supportive care, i.e. pain 
medications. Examples include growth factors, cytotoxics, interferons and other targeted agents. 
20 
Study assessments will be performed per schedule until approval of Amendment 6, at which point they cease following the patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 30-day post (EOT) 
visit, as applicable.  All patients will require End of treatment visit, however, patients who continue to receive pacritinib under expanded access will not require a 30 Day 
Post EOT visit. 
21 
Following approval of Amendment 6, patients who continue to receive pacritinib under expanded access will not require a 30 Day Post EOT visit.

Special Cases:  Modifications to Study Assessments Calendar 
All patients should complete all visit procedures through Week 24, including patients who stop pacritinib treatment or have protocol-
defined progressive disease prior to week 24, unless patient: 
 
withdraws consent 
 
dies 
 
undergoes splenic irradiation, splenectomy, or initiates any non-protocol-directed anti-myelofibrosis treatment 
*Patients who continue on pacritinib after Week 24 will receive efficacy and safety assessment every 3 months up to 2.5 years (with the 
exception of MRI/CT spleen assessment, which will only be followed up to 2 years and TSS assessment, which will only be followed up to 
48 weeks).  Study assessments will be performed per schedule until approval of Amendment 6, at which point they cease following the 
patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 30-day post (EOT) visit, as applicable.   
Patients who discontinue pacritinib treatment prior to Week 24 must complete the End of Treatment visit within 7 days of stopping the drug 
and 30 Day Post End of Treatment visit within 30 days of End of Treatment visit.  
Patients who discontinue pacritinib treatment prior to Week 24, with or without disease progression, will continue to follow this Study 
Assessments Calendar through Week 24. 
Patients who undergo splenic irradiation, splenectomy, or who initiate any non-protocol-directed anti-myelofibrosis treatment at any time 
must complete the End of Treatment visit within 7 days of stopping the drug and 30 Day Post End of Treatment visit within 30 days of End of 
Treatment visit, but will not complete any additional visits. 
If an arm is closed, patients randomized to that arm will end pacritinib treatment and complete the End of Treatment visit within 7 days of 
stopping the drug and 30 Day Post End of Treatment visit within 30 days of End of Treatment visit. 
Unscheduled visits should include physical examination, laboratory tests, and radiographic evaluations as clinically indicated in the judgement of 
the investigator and these results must be entered into the EDC. 
Additional visits may be required for patients with baseline platelet count ≤ 50,000/µL as well as patients who have pacritinib dose modifications 
due to hematologic, cardiac, diarrhea, or other non-hematologic toxicities in addition to those specified in Section 6.5.  Samples drawn for clinical 
laboratory assessments at unscheduled visits should be submitted to the central laboratory for analysis in addition to any local analysis that may be 
performed for the purpose of patient management.  See Section 6.5 for details.

Background Information 
 
1.1 
JAK2 in Hematologic Malignancies 
 
The Janus kinases (JAK) are a family of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases consisting of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, 
and TYK2.  They play a pivotal role in the signaling pathways of numerous cytokines, hormones, and 
growth factors.  Their intracellular substrates include the signal transducer and activator of transcription 
(STAT) family of proteins.  The JAK/STAT pathways, through the proper actions of the ligands, regulate 
important physiological processes, such as the immune response to viruses, hematopoiesis, lactation, and 
lipid homeostasis.  However, dysfunctional signaling caused by a myriad of factors results in pathological 
conditions, such as allergies, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, severe combined immune deficiency, and 
hematological malignancies.  In particular, mutations in the JAK2 gene have been associated with 
myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs), including polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia 
(ET), and idiopathic myelofibrosis (MF).   
The incidence of the JAK2V617F mutation, as determined by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction in 
granulocytes from patients with MPDs, occurs in 35% to 50% of patients with primary MF (PMF), 32% 
to 57% of patients with ET, and 74% to 97% of patients with PV.  This mutation, however, can also be 
found on rare occasions in patients with other chronic myeloid diseases, including myelodysplastic 
syndromes (MDS), MDS/MPDs, and unclassifiable MPD (uMPD).  There is strong evidence that the 
JAK2 mutation (and corresponding continuously active JAK2 tyrosine kinases) significantly contributes 
to the existence and progression of the disease.  Its inhibition thus presents a suitable target for drug 
development.  Even in patients without JAK2 mutation, the JAK/STAT pathway may be deregulated, and 
these patients may also benefit from JAK2 inhibitor therapy. 
 
1.2 
Myelofibrosis 
 
1.2.1 
Clinical Presentation and Disease-Related Symptoms 
 
MF may present as either a primary myeloproliferative disorder or follow a diagnosis of PV or ET.  
Regardless of the original diagnosis, PMF, post-polycythemia vera MF (PPV-MF), and post-essential 
thrombocythemia MF (PET-MF) have a common pathophysiological profile, characterized by elevated 
numbers of CD34-positive cells in the marrow in the early phase of the disease, followed in the later 
phases by marrow fibrosis, with decreasing numbers of CD34 cells in the marrow and a corresponding 
increase in splenic and liver engorgement by CD34 cells. 
PMF, PPV-MF and PET-MF usually present with a white blood cell (WBC) count <30,000/mm3, 
prominent teardrops on peripheral smear, normocellular or hypocellular marrow with moderate to marked 
fibrosis, an absence of the Philadelphia chromosome or the BCR-ABL translocation, and frequent 
positivity for the JAK2 mutation (Campbell and Green 2006).  In addition to the clonal proliferation of a 
multipotent hematopoietic progenitor cell, an event common to all chronic MPDs, these disorders are 
characterized by colonization of extramedullary sites, such as the spleen or liver (Barosi 1999, 
Tefferi 2000). 
About 70% of patients with MF are symptomatic at presentation.  The main physical findings are 
splenomegaly and hepatomegaly.  Other symptoms include those secondary to a hypercatabolic state 
(fever, weight loss, and night sweats) and peripheral blood abnormalities (fatigue and dyspnea resulting 
from anemia and bleeding; petechiae resulting from thrombocytopenia and/or abnormal platelet function).  
Gout and renal stones secondary to hyperuricemia are also common (Ahmed and Chang 2006).  Other 
clinical manifestations of the disease include thromboembolic episodes, hemorrhage, splenic pain, early 
satiety, anemia, and bone pain. 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 23 of 83 
PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF have similar types and distributions of bone marrow cytogenetic 
abnormalities (Tefferi et al 2001), and they are known to harbor a common mutant allele, JAK2V617F 
(James et al 2005). 
Transformation from PV to PPV-MF significantly worsens survival.  JAK2 mutations are almost always 
present in patients with PV and PPV-MF.  Common clinical and laboratory findings in PPV-MF include a 
hyperproliferative bone marrow, National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for 
Adverse Events (CTCAE, version 4.0) grade 2 to 3 marrow fibrosis, anemia, splenomegaly, and 
constitutional symptoms (Passamonti et al 2008). 
Diagnostic tools for PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF include complete blood count (CBC), bone marrow 
aspiration and biopsy, cytogenetic analysis, peripheral blood smear analysis for teardrop-shaped red blood 
cells (RBCs), the number and kinds of WBCs, platelet count, and the presence of blast cells.  
 
1.2.2 
Current Strategies for Treating PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF 
 
Currently, as no therapeutic strategy has been efficacious at reducing overall mortality, medical therapy 
for PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF is administered with supportive intent.  Treatment is aimed at improving 
quality of life through palliation of symptoms and control of peripheral blood counts (Arana-Yi et al 
2006).  Therapeutic interventions usually are used only in symptomatic patients with MF, since 
asymptomatic patients demonstrate prolonged survival (Barosi 1999, Dupriez et al 1996). 
At present, allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the only available method for altering the 
natural history of PMF, PPV-MF, or PET-MF (Passamonti et al 2008, Rondelli et al 2005).  ASCT can 
completely reverse the fibrosis in bone marrow (Ni et al 2005) and restore normal hematopoiesis.  
However, while ASCT is potentially curative for patients with PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF, this form of 
treatment is largely limited to young patients with negligible comorbidities (Arana-Yi et al 2006).  The 
International Working Group (IWG) – Myelofibrosis Research and Treatment considers it “…reasonable 
to recommend ASCT for high- or intermediate-risk 2 patients” (Cervantes et al 2009).  Thus far, no 
therapy has proven effective in prolonging overall survival (OS) in PMF, PPV-MF, or PET-MF 
(Arana-Yi et al 2006). 
Current treatment approaches are aimed at mitigating specific disease symptoms, such as anemia.  
Transfusion therapy is the core strategy for treatment of disease-related anemia, and it is also used to 
manage thrombocytopenia.  Long-term RBC transfusion therapy should be accompanied by oral iron 
chelation therapy to avoid long-term consequences of iron overload.  Disease-associated anemia 
occasionally responds to erythropoietin, hydroxyurea, cladribine, thalidomide, lenalidomide, or interferon 
treatment (Ahmed and Chang 2006).  These and other agents have been used to correct cytopenias, halt 
the progression of splenomegaly, or reduce the size of a site of extramedullary hematopoiesis in patients 
with PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF. 
Danazol, a synthetic attenuated anabolic steroid with androgenic activity, has been used to treat anemia in 
PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF.  Erythropoietin has been administered to patients with these diseases for 
palliation of constitutional symptoms and anemia (Arana-Yi et al 2006).  The use of interferon-α can 
result in hematologic responses, including reduction in spleen size, but many patients do not tolerate this 
medication (Sacchi 1995, Gilbert 1998).  Antiangiogenic and immunomodulatory drugs, such as 
thalidomide and lenalidomide, have shown activity in patients with MF (Gilbert 1998, Barosi et al 2002, 
Marchetti et al 2004, Tefferi et al 2006, Mesa et al 2004, Strupp et al 2004), but they are not routinely 
used for the indications proposed in this study of pacritinib. 
Other antiangiogenic agents, such as vatalanib and sorafenib, have been studied in PMF, PPV-MF, and 
PET-MF, but the data are not promising.  Etanercept has been evaluated, but it was not superior to the 
combination of thalidomide and prednisone (Arana-Yi et al 2006). 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 24 of 83 
The use of signal transduction inhibitors, such as imatinib, have resulted in an increase in the number of 
clonogenic megakaryocytic progenitors in bone marrow, suggesting they may be an effective treatment 
for thrombocytopenia in patients with MF (le Bousse-Kerdiles et al 2005). 
For patients with PMF, PPV-MF, or PET-MF who have painful splenomegaly and no other treatment 
options, splenectomy may be performed.  The decision to perform splenectomy involves weighing the 
benefits (long-term improvement in symptomatic splenomegaly, anemia, portal hypertension, and severe 
thrombocytopenia in 30% to 70% of patients) versus the risks (10% postoperative mortality, and 
30% postoperative morbidity caused by infection, bleeding, or thrombosis; additionally, some 
investigators have reported accelerated progression to blast crisis). 
 
1.2.3 
Targeted Therapy for Myeloproliferative Disease 
 
In 2011, the JAK 1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib received approval in the United States (US) for the treatment of 
patients with intermediate or high-risk MF, including PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF based on the 
COMFORT I and II randomized controlled studies showing that treatment with ruxolitinib decreased 
spleen size and symptom score (Verstovsek et al 2012, Harrison et al 2012).  Entry criteria for both 
studies was limited to patients with platelet counts >100,000/µL.  The median platelet counts at entry for 
the two studies were 262,000/µL and 244,000/µL, respectively.   
Ruxolitinib causes significant dose-related thrombocytopenia, and the dosage must be adjusted in patients 
with platelet counts <200,000/µL.  In patients taking ruxolitinib who develop a platelet count 
<50,000/µL, withholding ruxolitinib is recommended until the platelet count recovers to over 50,000/µL.  
In clinical studies, patients taking ruxolitinib who had pretreatment platelet counts between 100,000/µL 
and 200,000/µL had a higher frequency of grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia (16.7%) than patients with 
higher initial platelet counts (7.2%). 
The incidence of thrombocytopenia (all grades) during randomized treatment in COMFORT I was 69.7% 
in the ruxolitinib arm compared with 30.5% in the placebo arm.  The dosage of ruxolitinib was adjusted 
downward for patients with platelet counts <100,000/L and withheld for those with platelet counts 
<50,000/L.  In COMFORT II, protocol-specified dosage modifications for thrombocytopenia were more 
frequent in the ruxolitinib arm than in the best available therapy arm (41% versus 1%).  Disease control is 
substantially reduced with patients on ruxolitinib who require dose reductions of ruxolitinib to less than 
20 mg per day and discontinuation of ruxolitinib is recommended for patients who are taking 5 mg twice 
daily and who are not responding at 6 weeks (Jakafi package insert, Jakafi SmPC).  
Median time to recovery of platelet counts to above 50,000/µL was 14 days in patients requiring 
interruption of treatment due to thrombocytopenia (Jakafi package insert, Jakafi SmPC).   
Patients who are taken off ruxolitinib due to lack of efficacy or toxicity have poor survival which is 
negatively impacted by starting and ending platelet count.  In a recent report from MD Anderson Cancer 
Center on patient outcome after ruxolitinib discontinuation, median survival was 14 months but was 
substantially shorter for patients starting ruxolitinib with platelets <260,000/L (HR = 2.7) or who 
stopped ruxolitinib at platelet counts <100,000/L (HR = 4.1) (Newberry et al 2017).  In a similar series 
from the MAYO Clinic, discontinuation rates at 1, 2, and 3 years were 51%, 72% and 89% with the most 
common causes of disease progression including loss of response (40%) and toxicity with or without loss 
of response (34%). Survival was dependent on DIPSS scores and was similar for intermediate-2 and high 
risk patients as compared to patients treated prior to ruxolitinib availability (Tefferi et al 2011).  
Patients who discontinue ruxolitinib with intermediate to high risk disease have no effective therapeutic 
options and a short survival. The current study is designed to test the efficacy and safety of pacritinib in 
this setting.

1.3 
Pacritinib 
 
Pacritinib is a novel JAK2/fms-like receptor tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitor that has demonstrated 
promising antitumor activity in two mouse models of human malignancies.  Preclinical toxicology studies 
have identified a safe starting dosage for clinical studies.  The potential indications that may be targeted 
include: (i) PV, ET, and MF, all of which are MPDs with a high frequency of a JAK2V617F mutation; 
(ii) certain leukemias and lymphomas where other forms of JAK aberrations have been reported; and 
(iii) acute myeloid leukemia, in which FLT3 inhibitors have shown preliminary clinical promise. 
 
1.3.1 
Pharmacology 
 
Pacritinib is a potent, selective inhibitor of JAK2 and FLT3 kinase activities (50% inhibitory 
concentration [IC50]=23 nM and 22 nM, respectively), as well as JAK2V617F mutant kinase activity 
(IC50=19 nM).  Pacritinib is also a potent inhibitor of cellular proliferation in human leukemia and 
lymphoma cell lines selected for their dependence on the target kinases (cellular IC50 ranges from 0.03 to 
0.24 M).  Consistent with these activities, exposure to pacritinib resulted in the reduction of 
phospho-JAK2, phospho-STAT3, or phospho-STAT5 in the relevant cell lines. 
The therapeutic effects of pacritinib were assessed in an orthotopic model of MPD induced with 
Ba/F3JAK2V617F cells.  Pacritinib treatment at 150 mg/kg orally twice daily (BID) was well tolerated 
and significantly ameliorated symptoms, with 60% normalization of spleen weight and 92% 
normalization of liver weight.  
 
Pharmacokinetics in Animals 
 
Pharmacokinetics (PK) following single intravenous (i.v.) or oral administration of pacritinib was 
evaluated in mice, rats, and dogs.  Following oral administration, pacritinib showed rapid absorption in 
mice (time of maximum concentration [Tmax] from 0.5 to 1.3 hours) and moderately fast absorption in rats 
and dogs (Tmax ~4 hours).  The oral terminal half-lives were 2.2, 5.7 and 4.4 hours in mice, rats, and dogs 
respectively.  As measured by liver blood flow, the systemic clearance of pacritinib from plasma was high 
in mice (8 L/h/kg) and dogs (1.6 L/h/kg) and moderate in rats (1.6 L/h/kg).  The i.v. terminal half-lives 
were 5.6, 6, and 4.6 hours in mice, rats, and dogs, respectively.  The oral bioavailability of pacritinib was 
39% in mice, 10% in rats, and 24% in dogs. 
 
1.3.2 
Preclinical Toxicology 
 
The adverse effects of pacritinib were evaluated in 30-day repeated oral dose toxicity studies with 14-day 
recovery in both mice and dogs, and in 26- and 39-week chronic toxicity studies in mice and dogs, 
respectively.  Key findings included dose-dependent leukopenia accompanied by neutropenia (dog) and 
neutrophilia (mice) that partially reversed during recovery.  Mice also showed dose-dependent but 
reversible thrombocytosis and anemia.  In the chronic toxicity studies, low-magnitude decreases in 
neutrophils and red blood cell parameters were observed.  No treatment-related hepatic changes were 
observed with the exception of increased aspartate transaminase (to +109%, male dogs) and increased 
triglycerides (to +57%, male and female dogs).   
In the 30-day study in dogs, animals receiving mid and high dosages of pacritinib experienced vomiting 
and diarrhea that increased in severity despite treatment with antiemetic and antidiarrheal medication.  
Similarly, in the 39-week study in dogs, an increased incidence of nausea and vomiting was observed at 
dosages of 20 mg/kg/day and higher.  Periods of low food consumption in individual animals receiving 
40 and 50 mg/kg/day were accompanied by rapid weight loss (which was controlled and reversed with 
subcutaneous fluid and supplemental food) and were considered treatment related and adverse.

Based on these studies, the no observed adverse effect level was determined to be 100 mg/kg BID in mice 
and 10 mg/kg BID in dogs. 
 
1.3.3 
Summary of Clinical Pharmacology and Phase 1 Studies with Healthy Volunteers with 
Pacritinib 
 
To date, the Sponsor has completed two PK studies for pacritinib in healthy volunteers, including a food 
effect study (SB1518-2010-006) characterizing the effects of a high calorie, high fat meal on the 
bioavailability and PK of pacritinib and a study assessing inter- and intra-individual variability of oral 
pacritinib in healthy volunteers under fasted conditions at 100 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg doses 
(SB15182010-004).  In addition, the single and multiple dose population PK of pacritinib has been 
characterized following multiple dose administration of pacritinib in two studies (SB1518-2007-001 and 
SB1518-2008-003) in patients with advanced myeloid malignancies.  
After administration of single doses of pacritinib in a randomized, three-treatment, three-period crossover 
study (SB1518-2010-004) in healthy volunteers under fasting conditions, peak plasma concentrations 
were reached at a median Tmax ranging from 4.5 to 5.5 hours across the 100 to 400 mg dose range.  While 
between-patient variability was relatively high (28% to 45%), the within-patient variability was low (13% 
to 15%), highlighting the consistent systemic exposure for pacritinib in individual patients.  The mean 
elimination half-life was approximately 34 hours and was not dependent on dose.  The systemic exposure 
of pacritinib in healthy volunteers was comparable to that in patients.  After oral administration of single 
200-mg doses (2100 mg capsules) of pacritinib under fed and fasted conditions in 
study SB1518-2010-006, the 90% confidence intervals for the geometric mean ratios (fed to fasted) for 
maximum concentration observed (Cmax), area of the curve up to the last measurable concentration 
(AUC0-t), and area under the curve to infinite time (AUCinf) were between 80% and 125%, demonstrating 
lack of an effect of food on absorption.  Given this data, pacritinib can be orally administered without 
regard to timing of meals.  
Pooled analyses of PK assessments from the two completed clinical studies in patients at pacritinib 
dosages up to 600 mg once daily (QD) showed slow absorption (Tmax 4 to 6 hours) and dose-related 
increases in systemic exposure up to 400 mg QD.  The rate of absorption was linear at doses up to 300 mg 
and thereafter appeared to be rate limited.  Therefore, modeling suggested that, at doses of over 200 mg 
per day, divided doses would yield increased steady study blood levels.  Beyond the 400 mg QD dosage, 
there was minimal increase in exposure with doses up to 600 mg QD suggesting involvement of a 
saturable process in oral absorption of pacritinib.  In addition, the results demonstrated a prolonged 
elimination half-life (mean Day 1 half-life=47 hours), supporting a QD regimen of pacritinib in clinical 
development.  Comparison of systemic exposure of pacritinib on Days 1 and 15 showed a 1.5- to 2-fold 
increase in systemic exposure at steady state.  
 
1.3.4 
Overview of Clinical Studies of Pacritinib in Patients with Myelofibrosis 
 
Approximately 967 individuals have received pacritinib in 15 completed studies, which includes 
552 patients with myelofibrosis who were assigned to a pacritinib arm. Completed studies include 
two controlled studies in myelofibrosis, four uncontrolled clinical studies in cancer patients and 9 clinical 
pharmacology/pharmacokinetic studies. The summary below describes efficacy and safety observations 
from across the completed controlled (phase 3) studies in myelofibrosis.

Summaries of Each Phase 3 Myelofibrosis Study 
 
PERSIST-1 was the first phase 3 study of pacritinib, comparing the efficacy of 400 mg QD with best 
available therapy (not including ruxolitinib) in patients with PMF, PPV-MF, or PET-MF.  Patients 
previously treated with JAK2 inhibitors were excluded.  There were no exclusion criteria based on 
platelet count.  Three hundred twenty-seven patients (327) were randomized in a 2:1 allocation to 
pacritinib or best available therapy (BAT).  PERSIST-1 demonstrated a statistically significant 
improvement in the primary endpoint of percent of pacritinib-treated patients achieving a ≥35% reduction 
in spleen volume at Week 24 compared to baseline, as assessed by centrally read MRI or computed 
tomography [CT] imaging), compared to best available therapy.  Pacritinib efficacy in SVR response was 
not affected by baseline thrombocytopenia (<50,000/µL or <100,000/µL platelets), compared to BAT 
(pre-specified subgroup intent-to-treat [ITT] <50,000/µL: 22.9% versus 0% SVR response, respectively; 
<100,000/µL: 16.7% versus 0% SVR response, respectively), although statistical significance could not 
be determined in accordance with the pre-specified statistical analysis plan.  More patients treated with 
pacritinib had improved MF-related symptomatology, meeting the predefined TSS response definition 
(≥50% reduction at Week 24 compared to baseline, as assessed by Myeloproliferative Neoplasm-
Symptom Assessment Form Total Symptom Score version 2.0 (MPN-SAF TSS 2.0) than those treated 
with BAT, but this trend was not statistically significant.  In general, safety was similar to that seen in 
early phase studies, although interim OS results were consistent with a negative trend in survival in 
pacritinib-treated patients, and there were imbalances in fatal and life-threatening events, including 
intracranial hemorrhage, and arrhythmias including sudden death. 
PERSIST-2 was the second phase 3 study of pacritinib, comparing the efficacy of 400 mg QD and 
200 mg BID with best available therapy, including ruxolitinib, in patients with PMF, PPV-MF, or 
PET-MF and thrombocytopenia (baseline platelet count ≤100,000/µL).  Patients previously treated with 
JAK2 inhibitors were included.  There were no exclusion criteria based on platelet count.  Three hundred 
eleven patients (311) were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to the 3 treatment arms.  Due to Full Clinical Hold 
on February 8, 2016, only 211 of the accrued patients were evaluable in the ITT (efficacy) population, 
having been randomized with sufficient time to reach the Week 24 evaluation window, thus limiting the 
power to detect differences in the efficacy endpoints.  PERSIST-2 demonstrated a statistically significant 
improvement in the coprimary endpoint comparing the pooled pacritinib arms with the BAT arm for the 
percent of pacritinib-treated patients achieving a ≥35% reduction in spleen volume at Week 24 compared 
to baseline (SVR response), as assessed by centrally read MRI or CT imaging, compared to best available 
therapy (18.1% vs. 2.8%, p=0.0011).  More patients in the pooled pacritinib had improved MF-related 
symptomatology, meeting the predefined TSS response definition (≥50% reduction at Week 24 compared 
to baseline, as assessed by MPN-SAF TSS 2.0, TSS response) than those treated with BAT, but this trend 
in the second co-primary endpoint was not statistically significant (24.8% vs. 13.9%, p=0.791).  
Comparing the individual pacritinib treatment arms to BAT, SVR response was nominally significant for 
BID (21.6%) vs. BAT (p=0.0007), and for QD (14.7%) vs. BAT (p=0.0173).  Unlike the pooled 
coprimary analysis, the BID arm had nominal significance for TSS response vs. BAT (32.4% vs. 13.9%, 
p=0.0106), but the QD arm did not (17.3%, p=0.6524).  Exploratory analyses most relevant to the current 
study showed that in comparison with the ruxolitinib-treated BAT patients, more pacritinib-treated 
patients achieved the SVR response than patients treated with either ruxolitinib or other BAT agents (QD 
11/75, 14.7%; BID 16/74, 21.6%; ruxolitinib 1/32, 3.1%; other BAT 1/40, 2.5%).  Similarly, more 
pacritinib 200 mg BID (but not 400 mg QD) patients achieved the MPN-SAF TSS2.0 response 
(pacritinib 24/74, 32.4% vs. ruxolitinib 6/32, 18.8%), despite the increased effect of ruxolitinib compared 
to all other BAT patients (4/40, 10%). 
Interim analyses of the PERSIST-2 study led to Full Clinical Hold due to interim OS results in which the 
pooled pacritinib treatment arms (QD + BID) were compared with BAT and concerns about fatal 
intracranial hemorrhage, cardiac failure, and cardiac arrest.  Updated analyses based on the locked 
database demonstrated that the QD dosing arm had a survival decrement compared to BAT (hazard ratio

[HR]=1.18; p=0.6615), but the BID dosing arm had a trend for survival benefit (HR=0.68; p=0.3458).  In 
general, the safety observed in PERSIST-2 was similar to that observed in PERSIST-1, although 
differences were seen between the QD and BID pacritinib dosing arms.  With the exception of 
hemorrhage, BID dosing generally was associated with lower rates of adverse events (AEs), including 
grade 3/4 and fatal events.  The pacritinib BID arm had greater apparent efficacy for both SVR and 
reduction in TSS than either pacritinib dosed at 400 mg QD or BAT.  Based on these efficacy data, the 
dose of 200 mg BID has been selected as the upper level dosage regimen for the current dose ranging 
study. 
Most relevant to the current study, the safety impacts of prior JAK2 inhibitor treatment in PERSIST-2 
were compared to patients who did not have such prior treatment. Incidences of treatment-emergent AEs 
(TEAEs) overall followed a similar pattern in the prior JAK2 inhibitor treatment and no prior JAK2 
inhibitor treatment subgroups in the pacritinib and BAT treatment arms (pacritinib, 98.1% and 96.3%, 
respectively; BAT, 90.4% and 87.0%, respectively), with comparable incidence in the QD and BID 
dosing arms. While thrombocytopenia showed similar rates between subgroups, anemia was increased in 
the no prior treatment group (pacritinib, 15.5% [13.5% QD and 17.6% BID] and BAT, 11.5% in the prior 
treatment group, and pacritinib, 35.5% [42.3% QD and 29.1% BID] and BAT, 19.6% in the no prior 
treatment group). Diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting had increases in incidence in the prior treatment group 
compared to the no prior treatment group. The percentages of patients who experienced TEAEs of 
CTCAE grade 3 in the pacritinib QD + BID pooled arms, and BAT arms were 35.9% and 26.9% 
respectively, in patients with prior treatment and 36.4% and 28.3%, respectively, in patients with no prior 
treatment. When comparing the incidence of grade 3 events in the QD and BID arm in each subgroup, 
there was an increased incidence of events in the QD arm in the prior treatment subgroup (44.2% 
compared to 27.5%) and an increased incidence of events in the BID arm in the no prior treatment 
subgroup (40.0% compared to 32.7%). The percentage of patients who experienced TEAEs of CTCAE 
grade ≥3 in the pacritinib and BAT arms were 70.9% and 42.3%, respectively, in patients with baseline 
prior treatment and 74.8% and 56.5% respectively, in patients with baseline no prior treatment. The rates 
of grade 3/4 TEAEs in the QD and BID pacritinib groups were similar to that observed in the pacritinib 
QD + BID pooled arms. The rates of grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia and more notably, anemia events were 
decreased in the prior treatment group (prior treatment: pacritinib, 12.6% [QD 11.5% and BID 13.7%] 
and BAT, 9.6%; no prior treatment: pacritinib, 35.5% [QD 42.3% and BID 29.1%] and BAT, 19.6%). 
Fatal TEAEs occurred at modestly higher rates in the prior treatment group compared to the no prior 
treatment group in the pacritinib arms, particularly in the pacritinib QD arm, (12.6% [QD 17.3% and BID 
7.8%] compared to 9.3% [QD 11.5% and BID 7.3%]). The BAT arm showed a reverse pattern, with fatal 
events increased in the no prior treatment group compared to the prior treatment group (13.0% versus 
5.8%).  
Adverse Events in the Myelofibrosis Population: 
Overall, amongst the MF subjects treated with pacritinib in the completed controlled and uncontrolled 
studies, 96% experienced a treatment emergent AE.  The most common TEAEs (> 10% of subjects) 
occurred in the SOCs of gastrointestinal disorders (including diarrhea [66%], nausea [37%], vomiting 
[24%], abdominal pain [16%] and constipation [13%]), blood and lymphatic system disorders (including 
anemia [28%] and thrombocytopenia [25%]) and general disorders (fatigue [22%], pyrexia [12%] and 
decrease appetite [13%]).  Events of dizziness (10%), dyspnea, epistaxis and pruritus (all 11%) were also 
observed.   
The most commonly (>10% of all subjects) reported treatment-related TEAEs by preferred term, were in 
the SOC of gastrointestinal disorders including diarrhea (62%), nausea (31%) and vomiting (18%), and 
the SOC of blood and lymphatic system disorders, including thrombocytopenia (16%) and anemia (15%).  
While GI-related events were common, they were generally reversible, of low grade and rarely led to 
treatment discontinuation.  The potential risk of hypersensitivity reaction with pacritinib is low.  
Pacritinib is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of

the excipients. Potential mechanisms include an immune-mediated response to pacritinib or any of the 
excipients of the product. 
Safety Observations Across the Controlled Phase 3 Studies: 
In the controlled PERSIST-1/-2 studies, patients in the pacritinib arm (42.8% [184/430]) experienced 
treatment-related grade 3/4 AEs at a higher frequency than patients in the BAT arm (13.7% [28/204]). 
However, no notable patterns were observed in the type or frequency of specific AEs. The proportion of 
patients who experienced a treatment related grade 3/4 AE was similar in the 400 mg QD (42.0% 
[136/324]) arm compared to the 200 mg BID (45.3% [48/106]) arm. The most common treatment related 
grade 3/4 AEs for both the 400 mg QD and 200 mg BID arms were thrombocytopenia (12.7% and 18.9%, 
respectively) and anemia (15.4% and 10.4%, respectively). For both treatment arms, all other grade 3/4 
TEAEs occurred at a frequency of <6%. 
A greater proportion of patients in the pacritinib (50.9%) arm compared to BAT (27.5%), and in the 
400 mg QD arm (52.2%) compared to 200 mg BID (47.2%), experienced at least one SAE. The most 
common SAEs in patients treated with pacritinib by PT were anemia (6.7%), pneumonia (6.3%), disease 
progression (3.0%), thrombocytopenia and cardiac failure (both 2.8%), and pyrexia and acute renal failure 
(2.6% each). All of these SAEs occurred at a higher incidence in patients treated with pacritinib compared 
to BAT. In addition, the incidences of all of these SAEs, except for thrombocytopenia (1.9% of the 
400 mg QD arm and 5.7% of the 200 mg BID arm) were similar for the 400 mg QD and 200 mg BID 
arms  
The incidence of deaths reported was higher in the pacritinib arms than in the BAT arm over the entire 
reporting period for the pooled PERSIST-1/-2 studies, including more than 30 days after last dose of 
study treatment (27.2% of pacritinib vs. 9.3% of BAT patients) or while on study treatment and within 
30 days after treatment (10.9% of pacritinib vs. 5.4% of BAT patients). The higher incidence of deaths in 
the pacritinib arm was a result of a much higher incidence with 400 mg QD than with 200 mg BID 
(29.9% vs. 12.7%). In particular, during the period on study treatment or within 30 days after treatment, 
the difference in deaths between pacritinib and BAT was only seen for the 400 mg QD arm: 12.7% of 
400 mg QD died in this period compared to 5.7% of 200 mg BID patients and 5.4% of BAT patients. 
The SOCs with the highest number of patients reported in the 400 mg QD arm were general disorders and 
administration site conditions (4.3%), cardiac disorders (2.5%), and infections and infestations (1.9%). In 
contrast, for the 200 mg BID arm, the SOCs with the highest number of patients reported were general 
disorders and administration site conditions (3.8%) and nervous system disorders (2.8%). General 
disorders and administration site conditions (2.0%) was the most frequently reported SOC in patients 
treated with BAT. 
Thrombocytopenia 
While many patients had stable or increasing platelet counts during treatment, some decreases were 
observed. The incidence of the TEAE of thrombocytopenia was higher during treatment with pacritinib 
(27.9%) than with BAT (18.6%) in the PERSIST 1/-2 studies. The incidence of thrombocytopenia was 
generally higher in the 200 mg BID arm compared to the 400 mg QD arm. This was true for all TEAEs 
(34.0% vs. 25.9%, respectively), related TEAEs (20.8% vs. 16.0%), grade 3/4 TEAEs (21.0% vs. 32.1%), 
and SAEs (1.9% vs. 5.7%).   
Despite thrombocytopenia, most pacritinib patients continued treatment without dose modification. 
Overall, only 2.5% of patients on 400 mg QD and 1.9% on 200 mg BID, discontinued due to 
thrombocytopenia and only 2.8% on 400 mg QD and 1.9% on 200 mg BID, had a dose reduction due to 
thrombocytopenia. In patients with a platelet count below 100,000/µL, only 4.0% of patients on 400 mg 
QD and 1.9% of patients on 200 mg BID, discontinued due to thrombocytopenia. For those who had dose 
modifications due to thrombocytopenia, dose reduction or short term interruption allowed treatment 
continuation. Importantly, treatment emergent thrombocytopenia or worsening of baseline 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 30 of 83 
thrombocytopenia did not appear to be associated with treatment-emergent AEs of bleeding. Hemorrhagic 
events were reported in pacritinib treated patients with or without severe thrombocytopenia. 
Anemia 
The TEAE of anemia was higher during treatment with pacritinib (28.1%) than with BAT (17.6%) in the 
PERSIST-1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of anemia was generally lower in the pacritinib 200 mg 
BID arm compared to the 400 mg QD arm. This was true for all TEAEs (23.6% vs. 29.6%, respectively), 
related TEAEs (13.2% vs. 17.9%), grade 3/4 TEAEs (21.7% vs. 26.2%), and TEAEs leading to dose 
reduction (0.9% vs. 3.7%).  
Mean (SD) baseline hemoglobin levels for the 400 mg QD and 200 mg BID arms were 103.9 (23.3) g/L 
and 98.9 (22.0) g/L, respectively, indicating in general, patients were anemic at study entry. 
Hemorrhage  
Patients with MPNs are at increased risks for thrombosis and major bleeding. Hemorrhagic events have 
been reported in pacritinib-treated patients with and without severe thrombocytopenia. 
The incidence of TEAEs in the SMQ hemorrhages was similar during treatment with pacritinib (33.7%) 
and BAT (30.4%) in the PERSIST-1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of hemorrhage events was lower 
in the 400 mg QD arm compared to the 200 mg BID arm for all categories of TEAEs, including SAEs. 
The most common bleeding events were epistaxis, contusion, hematoma and GI hemorrhage and these 
events occurred at a similar frequency to patients treated with BAT.  Importantly, one of the most 
common TEAEs in the “watch and wait only” patients was epistaxis (26.3%), indicating a baseline level 
of bleeding without any therapy, in this MF population. Most events in the SMQ hemorrhages were low 
grade, however, severe and sometimes life-threatening and fatal hemorrhagic events have been reported 
across the PERSIST-1/-2 studies. These outcomes comprised predominantly GI bleeding (including 
gastric variceal hemorrhage, melena, and esophageal hemorrhage) and intracranial hemorrhage, cerebral 
hemorrhage and meningorrhagia.  Overall, hemorrhagic TEAEs resulted in death in seven patients in the 
PERSIST-1/-2 studies, two treated with pacritinib 200 mg BID, four treated with pacritinib 400 mg QD, 
and one after crossover from BAT to pacritinib.   
The incidence of a new hemorrhage event TEAE was highest at the start of treatment and then diminished 
with continued treatment in all treatment groups.  Serious hematological events occurred in patients with 
complicated medical histories, severe comorbidities, concomitant antiplatelet use, and myelosuppression. 
The risk of bleeding episodes did not appear to be related to the degree of thrombocytopenia. 
Diarrhea 
Patients in the PERSIST-1/-2 studies were evaluated at baseline to assess usual bowel habits and 
instructed on the need for early intervention for possible GI adverse effects associated with treatment. 
During each study, standard supportive care measures were provided to control symptoms of GI toxicity.   
The incidence of the TEAE of diarrhea was higher during treatment with pacritinib (61.4%) than with 
BAT (14.2%) in the PERSIST-1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of diarrhea was generally lower in the 
pacritinib 200 mg BID arm than in the 400 mg QD arm for most categories of TEAEs. This was true for 
all TEAEs (48.1% vs. 65.7%, respectively), related TEAEs (48.1% vs. 60.2%), grade 3/4 TEAEs (3.8% 
vs. 6.5%), TEAEs leading to discontinuation (0% vs. 2.5%), and TEAEs leading to dose reduction (0.9% 
vs. 4.0%). However, the incidence of diarrhea reported as SAEs was similar in both the 200 mg BID and 
400 mg QD arms (1.2% vs. 1.9%). 
The incidence of diarrhea was highest in the pacritinib groups at the start of treatment and then 
diminished with continued treatment: 54.3% of patients in the 400 mg QD arm and 40.6% of patients in 
the 200 mg BID arm reported a new TEAE of diarrhea during the first eight weeks of treatment. Between 
Weeks 8 and 16, this had decreased to 10.9% of the 400 mg QD arm and 15.3% of the 200 mg BID arm. 
After Week 16, the incidence was <10% in either arm. 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 31 of 83 
While patients in both pacritinib and BAT treatment arms experienced the onset of diarrhea within the 
first four weeks, overall the time to onset of the first episode of diarrhea was earlier for patients treated 
with pacritinib than BAT. Within the pacritinib treatment arms, the 200 mg BID arm was more likely to 
remain event-free both in the first eight to 12 weeks and over the duration of treatment compared to the 
400 mg QD arm. Similar results were seen for the time course of grade 3/4 diarrhea. 
Nausea and Vomiting 
The incidence of the TEAE of nausea was higher during treatment with pacritinib (32.8%) than with BAT 
(8.3%) in the PERSIST-1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of nausea was lower in the pacritinib 200 
mg BID arm compared to the 400 mg QD arm for related TEAEs (20.8% vs. 29.0%) and those TEAEs 
leading to dose reduction (0.9% vs. 1.9%). Very few patients in any group reported grade 3/4 TEAEs or 
SAEs of nausea or nausea AEs leading to discontinuation or dose reduction, and almost all of these were 
in the 400 mg QD arm. 
The incidence of vomiting was higher during treatment with pacritinib (20.7%) than with BAT (5.4%) in 
the PERSIST-1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of vomiting was lower in the pacritinib 200 mg BID 
arm than in the 400 mg QD arm for related TEAEs (10.4% vs. 16.4%) and grade 3/4 TEAEs (0% vs. 
2.5%). Very few patients in any group reported grade 3/4 TEAEs or SAEs of vomiting or vomiting AEs 
leading to discontinuation or dose reduction, and almost all of these were in the 400 mg QD arm. 
Cardiac Toxicities 
The incidence of TEAEs of cardiac disorders was higher during treatment with pacritinib (13.7%) than 
with BAT (9.8%) in the PERSIST 1/-2 studies. However, the incidence of cardiac disorders was generally 
lower in the pacritinib 200 mg BID arm than in the 400 mg QD arm. This was true for all TEAEs (10.4% 
vs. 14.8%, respectively), grade 3/4 TEAEs (3.8% vs. 8.6%), SAEs (4.7% vs. 9.3%), and related SAEs 
(0.9% vs. 2.2%). 
The most commonly reported TEAEs of cardiac disorders were cardiac failure (3.5% of pacritinib 
patients, with a similar incidence in the 400 mg QD and 200 mg BID arms, and 2.5% of BAT patients) 
and atrial fibrillation (3.0% of pacritinib patients, all in the 400 mg QD arm, none in the 200 BID arm, 
and 2.5% of BAT patients). All other cardiac TEAEs occurred with an incidence of <2% in any treatment 
group.  Approximately half of the cardiac events were grade 3/4 in severity in both the pacritinib and 
BAT arms, but in the pacritinib arm these were mainly in the 400 mg QD arm (8.6% of patients vs. 3.8% 
of the 200 mg BID arm). Very few of the cardiac events led to discontinuation (1.5% of the 400 mg QD 
arm, 0.9% of the 200 mg BID arm, and 0.5% of the BAT arm).  
Although the rate of serious cardiac events among MF patients was modestly higher than what was 
expected in the BAT arm, no clear pattern of individual cardiac events or event onset was discernable. 
Some appeared to be associated with other manifestations of worsening of a pre-existing cardiac 
condition. In support of this, none of the cardiac events in the BAT arm and only a few in the pacritinib 
arm were considered to be related to study drug. More specifically, the two most common cardiac events 
were considered related in four (0.9%) pacritinib patients (all 400 mg QD) with atrial fibrillation and 
three (0.7%) pacritinib patients (two with 400 mg QD and one with 200 mg BID) with cardiac failure.   
While diarrhea was one of the most commonly reported TEAEs for pacritinib-treated patients, severe 
diarrhea associated with hypokalemia was not observed. Hypokalemia measured by clinical laboratory 
showed a 2 grade negative shift (0 to 2) in 5.7% of patients in the pacritinib 200 mg BID arm, 7.8% in the 
400 mg QD arm, and 2.9% in the BAT arm.   
There were 13 cardiac disorder TEAEs leading to death in the PERSIST-1/-2 studies and the incidence 
was higher in the 400 mg QD arm (8 patients [2.5%]) than either the 200 mg BID arm (no patients) or the 
BAT arm (2 patients [1.0%]).  Of these deaths, only two were reported by the investigator to be related to 
study treatment (one event of cardiac arrest and one event of congestive cardiac failure).

Study Rationale and Objectives 
 
Two phase 2 studies of pacritinib have been conducted in patients with MF.  Data from these studies 
show that pacritinib can be safely administered to patients with MF, including those who also have 
thrombocytopenia.  Pacritinib treatment led to clinically meaningful reduction in spleen size and volume 
in a substantial proportion of patients with MF in the phase 2 studies.  Pacritinib treatment improved 
disease-associated symptoms regardless of the degree of thrombocytopenia and in patients who had 
received prior ruxolitinib.  These findings warrant further investigation to confirm the efficacy and safety 
of pacritinib, in patients who have been previously treated with ruxolitinib including those with 
thrombocytopenia. Pacritinib may address a significant unmet need as salvage therapy, especially in 
patients with low platelet counts or red blood cell transfusion requirements who are intolerant of 
ruxolitinib.  
The current study is being proposed to address the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
recommendation to perform a study to determine if a lower dosage of pacritinib might prove optimal in 
patients with MF.  This study is an open-label, randomized, phase 2 study with 3 dosages that aims to 
identify the most appropriate dosage for future studies based on risk/benefit profile.  The 3 dosages 
include a low dosage (100 mg QD), an intermediate dosage (100 mg BID), and a high dosage with a 
demonstrated efficacy profile and acceptable safety profile (200 mg BID).  These dosage levels have been 
selected because they span the dose–response curve and allow adequate characterization of dose–response 
relationship for pacritinib and allow for establishment of a minimally effective dosage that conserves the 
known effect of pacritinib on the surrogate marker of spleen volume response as determined by 
independently assessed MRI.   
Recruitment to 3 dosages simultaneously is justified based on the large safety database available at the 
highest planned dosage level from PERSIST-2 (i.e., 200 mg BID), and the planned frequent monitoring 
by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC; see Section 2.2) in addition to rigid entry criteria 
for patients with pre-existing bleeding episodes and patients with existing cardiac disease, with increased 
monitoring for cardiac and hemorrhage AEs.  
 
2.1 
Justification of Included Patient Population 
 
MF is a serious, life-limiting condition with severe morbidity in advanced stages.  Ruxolitinib is the only 
approved agent for treatment of MF.  Patients who are intolerant or who have failed to maintain a robust 
response to ruxolitinib have no alternative therapies and are at high risk for early mortality. 
 
Overview of Included Patient Population 
 
Patients to be included in this study will have failed therapy with ruxolitinib on the basis of intolerance or 
lack of efficacy.  This requirement is based on the unmet medical need in patients who failed to maintain 
benefit from the only approved agent.  Intolerance is defined by a minimum of 28 days therapy with 
pre-defined safety issues as previously used in a phase 3 clinical study of a JAK inhibitor in MF patients 
(https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02101268).  Suboptimal efficacy is defined based on consensus 
criteria and is based on a lack of spleen reduction and symptom improvement after 6 months of attempted 
treatment (Mesa et al 2016). 
In addition, patients will be highly symptomatic (Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System 
[DIPSS] risk score of Intermediate-1 to High Risk), and have splenomegaly as assessed by physical 
examination. 
Patients must have had no recent cardiac or bleeding history, and meet cardiac and bleeding safety 
screening evaluations including electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiogram and coagulation testing

results.  Patients with baseline corrected QT interval (QTc) ≥450 ms will be excluded from the study.  
Patients requiring concomitant medications with a significantly increased risk of QTc prolongation or 
bleeding will be excluded.  Based on the observed limited increase in pacritinib concentration in the 
cytochrome P450 (CYP3A4) inhibitor interaction study with clarithromycin (Study PAC104), caution 
should be exercised when coadministering such inhibitors with pacritinib. For the PAC203 clinical study, 
patients requiring such inhibitors will be excluded (Appendix 5). Based on the substantive pacritinib 
concentration reduction observed in the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) inducer interaction study with 
rifampin (Study PAC106), patients requiring such inducers (Appendix 6) will be excluded.  Patients are 
also required to have adequate hepatic and renal organ function and the absence of known medical issues 
which might affect efficacy assessments, tolerability, or safety on study. 
 
2.2 
Independent Data Monitoring Committee 
 
This study will utilize planned frequent monitoring by an IDMC.  At a minimum, the IDMC will consist 
of 1 board-certified hematologist, 1 board-certified cardiologist, and 1 biostatistician experienced in 
adaptive design clinical studies.  The role and responsibilities of the IDMC will be fully defined within 
the IDMC charter, including, but not limited to:  
 
 
Review safety data across arms, focusing on bleeding events, cardiac events, and deaths  
 
Evaluate cumulative safety as described in Section 11 
 
Make independent recommendations to the Sponsor on study continuation (continue without 
modification, continue with modification, or terminate) and on patient enrollment (hold or stop 
enrollment, enroll additional patients, close arm) as described in Section 11. 
 
Make independent recommendation to the Sponsor on pacritinib dose or dosages for further study  
 
The IDMC charter will be written in collaboration between the Sponsor and members of the IDMC.  In 
keeping with the terms of the charter, each IDMC meeting will have an open and closed session.   
The first IDMC meeting for safety review is planned tooccur once 18 patients have been randomized and 
treated for 12 weeks and will meet approximately quarterly thereafter.  Meeting minutes will be generated 
from each meeting and provided to the FDA within 10 business days of the meeting conclusion.   
In addition to the IDMC, there will be an Independent Adjudication Committee (IAC) that will review all 
grade 4 or 5 cardiac and bleeding events to assess the principal condition that resulted in the outcome.  
The IAC will provide their assessment to the IDMC.  Additional details on the IAC will be provided in 
the IAC charter.

Study Design 
 
This is a dose-finding study in patients with PMF, PPV-MF, and PET-MF (DIPSS risk score of 
Intermediate-1 to High-Risk), who were previously treated with ruxolitinib.  The study is designed to 
support a pacritinib dosage selection decision. Three dosages will be evaluated, with patients randomized 
1:1:1 to pacritinib 100 mg QD, pacritinib 100 mg BID, or pacritinib 200 mg BID. Randomization will be 
stratified by baseline platelet count (≤50,000/µL; >50,000/µL and ≤100,000/µL; and >100,000/µL). The 
most recent platelet count obtained prior to start of treatment will be the basis of stratification by baseline 
platelet count. Assigned treatment will continue until the patient experiences progressive disease, 
intolerable AEs, or withdraws consent, or until the assigned treatment arm is closed. No study treatment 
crossover will be allowed.  All patients should complete all visit procedures through Week 24, including 
patients who stop pacritinib treatment or have protocol-defined progressive disease prior to Week 24, 
unless patient withdraws consent, dies, undergoes splenic irradiation or splenectomy, or initiates any non-
protocol-directed anti-myelofibrosis treatment.  Following regulatory, Ethics or Institution Review Board 
approval of Amendment 6, study treatment for patients at and beyond the week-24 timepoint will 
terminate.  Study assessments will cease following the End-of-Treatment or 30-day post (EOT) visit, as 
applicable.  Patients who are benefiting from therapy as of study treatment termination may be allowed to 
continue receiving pacritinib under single patient expanded access or named patient programs at the 
investigator’s discretion and subject to regulatory and Ethics or IRB approval. 
The dosage selection process will be based on efficacy and safety parameters, including model-based 
dose response as described in Section 3.1.     
An IDMC consisting of subject matter experts will be convened and chartered to perform an assessment 
of safety throughout the study.  See Section 2.2 for additional information. 
The following criteria (non-binding) have been established to guide the decision: 
 
In the event of the occurrence of 2 treatment-emergent CTCAE grade ≥4 cardiac AEs or 
2 treatment-emergent CTCAE grade ≥4 hemorrhage AEs in the same treatment arm, suspend study 
enrollment and the IDMC will be convened to review the events including the IAC’s assessment of 
the events.  If the IDMC confirms the nature and grade of the events together with a relationship to 
study drug, the IDMC may recommend closure of one or more treatment arms.  In the event one or 
more arms are suspended or terminated for a safety observation, randomization into the arm(s) will be 
halted immediately, however patients who are experiencing benefit, in the opinion of the investigator 
and Sponsor, and who were randomized to an arm that is suspended or terminated, may continue 
treatment. 
 
The FDA and other Competent Authorities will be notified of any IDMC meeting that is convened 
under these circumstances, and the resultant decision will be reported to the FDA within 2 business 
days. The MHRA will be informed via a substantial amendment.   
 
If closure of an arm occurs, patients will continue to be enrolled into each of the remaining treatment 
arms.

The determination of dose or dosages of pacritinib for further study will be based on efficacy, safety, 
dose–response, and PK/PD exposure–response relationship data after all enrolled patients reach Week 24 
(or discontinue the study).  Approximately 150 patients total or up to 50 patients per arm may be enrolled. 
Spleen volume will be measured by MRI (preferred) or CT at baseline and Weeks 12 and 24 (Table 1).  
Patient-reported disease-related symptoms as assessed by the validated PRO instrument MPN-SAF TSS 
2.0 will be collected daily using an electronic diary and evaluated as part of the dose–response 
relationship.  DNA samples will also be collected for analysis of mutations associated with myelofibrosis 
at baseline and Week 24. 
Safety will be monitored with physical examinations, clinical laboratory assessments (including 
hematologic, chemistry, and coagulation testing), and cardiac monitoring (including ECG and 
echocardiogram testing); specified study treatment dosage modifications will be followed to address 
identified abnormalities.  Adverse event data will be collected throughout the study.   
The Sponsor will collect PK samples from patients in each dosing arm at the following timepoints: 
 
Sparse Sampling (all patients): End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours 
(predose), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
 
Dense Sampling (performed at selected sites for approximately 6 to 8 patients total per dose arm, 
at which point all further patients will have PK evaluated by sparse sample collection): Week 1 
Day 1: 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours 
(± 15 minutes) postdose and 24 hours postdose (within 30 minutes before the Day 2 dose), End of 
Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours (predose), 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours 
(± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
The PK parameters, minimum concentration observed (Cmin), maximum concentration observed (Cmax), 
and area under the curve (AUC) will be determined and summarized using descriptive statistics for each 
pacritinib dosage arm.  Exposure-response analyses will be conducted on both safety and efficacy 
populations in the study.  PD samples will be analyzed for biomarkers associated with the JAK/STAT 
pathway.   
 
3.1 
Rationale for Dosage Selection 
 
The primary objective of the study is to determine a recommended dosage of pacritinib for further clinical 
development; thus the study is designed to characterize the dose–response relationship for pacritinib in 
patients with MF.  Three dosage levels have been selected based on previous clinical phase 1/2 studies 
and the phase 3 study PERSIST-2, to span the dose–response curve and allow adequate characterization 
of dose–response relationships for efficacy and safety of pacritinib.  These three dosages include a low 
dosage (100 mg QD), an intermediate dosage (100 mg BID), and a higher dosage with potentially 
acceptable efficacy and safety profiles (200 mg BID).  As the systemic exposure of pacritinib is linear up 
to the 300 to 400 mg dosage (see dose-proportionality clinical study report; Study SB1518-2010-004), it 
is projected that the 100 mg QD regimen would result in pacritinib systemic exposure levels similar to 
those of a 50 mg BID regimen.  
The lowest dosage level selected for the study (100 mg QD) is 4-fold lower than the highest dosage level 
in the study (200 mg BID) in terms of total daily dose, allowing for adequate separation between dosage 
levels selected in the study, which should in turn support characterization of the dose–response 
relationship in the study.  The 100 mg QD regimen produced minimal clinical disease responses in 
6 patients in phase 1/2 studies and was not associated with any safety concerns, pointing to limited 
efficacy at the 100 mg QD dosage level.  Moreover, integrated exposure-response data from across the 
clinical program indicate that the exposure-response relationship for pacritinib is relatively steep whereby 
marked efficacy is only observed at exposure levels higher than those associated with the 100 mg QD 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6

regimen (Figure 1).  Median geometric mean Cmin of pacritinib at steady-state following administration of 
200 mg BID regimen in PERSIST-2 was 6,783 ng/mL.  Given the observed linearity following single-
dose administration of pacritinib capsules up to 400 mg, median steady-state Cmin levels of pacritinib with 
administration of 100 mg QD would be projected at around 1,700 ng/mL, where there no evidence for 
efficacy as measured by SVR as evident from the exposure-response relationship for pacritinib  
(Figure 1).  Overall, the 100 mg QD regimen is likely to show minimal efficacy and is a reasonable 
choice for the lowest dosage in the study.  Dosage levels lower than 100 mg QD are unlikely to offer any 
advantage in terms of better characterization of the dose–response relationship of pacritinib in the study. 
Given the observed incidence of SAEs, the 200 mg BID regimen will be the highest dosage studied in the 
current study. The 200 mg BID regimen has already demonstrated robust efficacy and a potentially 
acceptable safety profile in the PERSIST-2 study. An intermediate dosage of 100 mg BID will be tested 
that is likely to have efficacy based on the phase 1 studies and clinical experience in patients who 
underwent dose reduction in the phase 3 studies.  
Based on the efficacy observed in clinical studies in MF to date, the selected dosage levels of pacritinib 
are projected to provide reasonable likelihood of efficacy responses while allowing for full 
characterization of the dose–response and dose-safety relationships for pacritinib.

3.2 
Progression of Disease 
 
Patients may experience one or more of the following: splenic progression, splenic irradiation, 
splenectomy, or leukemic transformation.  All of these events represent progression of disease and must 
be reported. A patient who has experienced one event will continue to be followed for other progression 
events through Week 24.  Although the date of the first event is considered the date of progression of 
disease, subsequent events must also be reported.   
 
Progression of disease is defined as one or more of the following: 
 
 
Splenic progression, defined as an increase in splenic volume of ≥25% from baseline, based on MRI 
(preferred) or CT scan 
 
Splenic irradiation 
 
Splenectomy 
 
Leukemic transformation, defined as one or more of the following: 
- 
Increase in peripheral blood blast percentage to ≥20%  
- 
Bone marrow blast count ≥20% (bone marrow performed as standard of care) 
 
3.3 
Treatment Continuation After Progression of Disease 
 
Patients who have progression of disease on MRI (preferred) or CT scan, defined as an increase in splenic 
volume of ≥25% from baseline on MRI or CT scan, will not be allowed to continue study treatment. 
Patients should continue the visit schedule through Week 24 (including imaging and all protocol-specified 
study assessments) despite treatment discontinuation or disease progression prior to Week 24, unless 
patient withdraws consent, dies, undergoes splenic irradiation or splenectomy, or initiates any 
non-protocol-directed anti-myelofibrosis treatment.

Method of Treatment Assignment and Blinding 
 
Initially, eligible patients will be centrally randomized in a 1:1:1 allocation ratio to pacritinib 100 mg QD, 
pacritinib 100 mg BID, or pacritinib 200 mg BID using a central interactive web response system. If 
interim monitoring analysis indicates that any one of the treatment arm meets the stopping criteria 
(Section 11.9) for efficacy or safety and is thus dropped, then the randomization will be updated to a 
1:1 ratio of the two remaining study arms. In the case of two arms being dropped by interim efficacy or 
safety monitoring, then all eligible patients will be enrolled to the remaining one active arm until up to 
30 evaluable subjects are enrolled for that arm. 
Randomization will be stratified by geographic region (North America, Europe, versus rest of the world 
[ROW]) and baseline platelet count (≤50,000/µL; >50,000/µL and ≤100,000/µL; and >100,000/µL). The 
most recent platelet count obtained prior to start of treatment will be the basis of stratification by baseline 
platelet count. 
A patient’s treatment assignment will be known to all except the independent radiographic and cardiology 
assessors who will remain blinded to patient treatment assignment throughout the study.

Study Treatment 
 
6.1 
Study Drug Administration 
 
Patients will be supplied with 100 mg capsules of the drug.  If assigned to the once per day dosing arm, 
patients will take 100 mg (1 capsule) of pacritinib QD, at the same time of day, orally, with or without 
food.  Patients assigned to twice per day dosing will take 100 mg (1 capsule) of pacritinib BID at the 
same times of day, orally, with or without food or 200 mg (2 capsules) of pacritinib BID orally, at the 
same times of day, with or without food (Table 2).

6.2 
Study Drug Description and Storage  
 
Pacritinib for oral administration is supplied in capsules containing 100 mg (as the free base) in red 
cap/gray body size 0 opaque hard gelatin capsules.  The inactive ingredients are microcrystalline 
cellulose, magnesium stearate, and polyethylene glycol 8000. 
Each capsule contains 146 mg of pacritinib citrate, which is equivalent to 100 mg pacritinib free base. 
Pacritinib capsules should not be opened or crushed.  Direct contact of the powder in pacritinib capsules 
with the skin or mucous membranes should be avoided.  If such contact occurs, affected areas should be 
washed thoroughly with water. 
Pacritinib capsules should be stored at controlled room temperature 20°C to 25°C or 68°F to 77°F, with 
excursions allowed from 15°C to 30°C or 59°F to 86°F.  All pacritinib supplies must be kept in a 
restricted-access area. 
 
6.3 
Dosage, Route, and Mode of Administration 
 
Patients in each arm will be supplied with 100-mg capsules of pacritinib. If assigned to the twice per day 
dosing arms, patients will either take 100 mg (1 capsule) or 200 mg (2 capsules) of pacritinib twice per 
day, orally, at the same time of day, with or without food.  On days when PK and PD samples and ECGs 
are to be obtained, pacritinib will be administered in the clinic.  
 
6.4 
Drug Accountability 
 
At every study visit, patients will return bottles in which pacritinib is supplied with all remaining untaken 
pacritinib capsules, if any.  Patient compliance will be evaluated by pill count.

Pacritinib Treatment Adjustments for Adverse Events 
 
6.5.1 
Treatment Interruption and Discontinuation 
 
Safety parameters including AEs, hematology, cardiac monitoring, and serum chemistry will be assessed 
according to the protocol. Pacritinib treatment may be withheld for up to 7 days due to drug-related 
toxicities. A longer recovery period may be allowed based on the toxicity, but must be agreed upon 
between the investigator and medical monitor.   
Pacritinib should be withheld 7 days prior to planned invasive procedures and concurrently with any 
unplanned invasive procedure.  Pacritinib may be restarted after 2 days without active signs or symptoms 
of active bleeding. 
After treatment interruption, patients may resume pacritinib treatment per dose management guidelines 
below.   
 
6.5.2 
Dosage Management Guidelines for Hematologic Toxicity and Related Complications 
 
Myelosuppression is common in patients with MF and this study allows enrollment of patients with 
severe cytopenias.  Patients with complications of myelosuppression may receive standard supportive 
care, including transient use of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor for the treatment of febrile 
neutropenia and red blood cell and platelet transfusion as clinically indicated.  Patients receiving 
pacritinib are not allowed to receive erythropoietin for the treatment of anemia or platelet stimulating 
factors for the treatment of thrombocytopenia. 
Hematology parameters, including CBC, differential, and platelet count will be evaluated at regular 
intervals during the study.  These parameters should be monitored more frequently if clinically required. 
Patients with a baseline platelet count of ≤ 50,000/µL must be monitored weekly by central laboratory 
assessment for the first 8 weeks, then monthly if counts remain ≤ 50,000/µL.  Unscheduled local 
laboratory test results may be used for assessment and management of patients in real time.  Samples 
collected for local testing must also be submitted to the central laboratory and the results captured in the 
clinical database. 
Table 3 indicates required dose interruptions and modifications for hematologic toxicities and 
complications such as hemorrhage and febrile neutropenia.  Of note, if more than one toxicity is 
experienced simultaneously, the higher-grade toxicity should determine the dose 
interruption/modification.

Coagulation Testing 
 
Coagulation testing will include PT, INR, PTT, and TT at screening, baseline, the end of Week 4, the end 
of Week 12, the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, and 30 days after the last dose of study 
treatment. Additional coagulation testing should be done as clinically indicated. 
These results will be taken into account, together with baseline platelet counts and prior medical history 
of bleeding, to help guide ongoing hematologic monitoring of platelet counts and clinical monitoring for 
bleeding.  Pacritinib dosage modifications will be implemented for clinically significant AEs identified 
with this testing per the guidelines in Table 7. 
 
6.5.3 
Pacritinib Dosage Management Guidelines for QTc Interval Prolongation, Reduction in 
Ejection Fraction, and Other Cardiac Toxicities 
 
A 12-lead ECG (collected in triplicate) will be checked at screening, baseline, the end of Week 4, the end 
of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or the end of treatment visit, including QTc calculation, and 30 days 
after the last dose of study treatment.   
Ejection fraction will be checked (echocardiogram or MUGA scan) at screening, the end of Week 4, the 
end of Week 12, the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, every 6 months during the follow up 
period, and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.  These assessments will be performed until 
approval of Amendment 6, at which point assessment ceases following the patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 
30-day post (EOT) visit as applicable. Pacritinib dosage modifications will be implemented for clinically 
significant ejection fraction changes as per Table 4 and Table 5.  For patients with a grade 2 decreased

cardiac ejection fraction at baseline (LVEF 45%-50%), Table 5 should be used for any further decreases 
in LVEF. If pacritinib treatment is resumed after holding for ejection fraction abnormality, ejection 
fraction should be reassessed approximately 14 days later, then at least every 3 months as per the above 
schedule.  Additional ejection fraction testing shall be done as clinically indicated. 
Treatment should be modified as shown in the following table (Table 4), as recommended by FDA in case 
of QTc interval prolongation.

6.6 
Concomitant and Excluded Therapies 
Ruxolitinib should not be administered concurrently with pacritinib at any time. Although there is no 
washout period required for ruxolitinib prior to the start of dosing with pacritinib, it should be understood 
that because of the difference in half-life between ruxolitinib (3 hours Jakafi package insert) and 
pacritinib (approximately 40 hours), there will be a period of 10 to 14 days following the discontinuation 
of ruxolitinib and the start of dosing with pacritinib, during which pacritinib has not yet reached steady 
state and during which patients may be at increased risk of ruxolitinib withdrawal, particularly after high 
doses of ruxolitinib (eg, more than 10 mg BID or 20 mg QD). For this reason, patients who are on more 
than 10 mg BID (or 20 mg QD) of ruxolitinib at the time of consent for this study must taper the 
ruxolitinib dose down to 10 mg BID or lower and remain stable on the reduced dose for at least 2 weeks 
prior to starting pacritinib. Tapering should be done per institutional practice and may be done with 
concurrent addition of prednisone during the screening period. In addition to any steroids used during the 
screening period, the protocol permits short-term use (up to 14 days) of corticosteroids and/or 
hydroxyurea as prophylaxis or treatment of symptomatic ruxolitinib withdrawal during the first month of 
treatment with pacritinib.  
Supportive care therapies, except when prohibited by any of the below provisions, are permitted, 
including the use of low-dose aspirin.  Corticosteroids (up to 20 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) 
and/or hydroxyurea may be used for up to 2 weeks during the first month of treatment with pacritinib to 
control symptoms of ruxolitinib withdrawal if they occur.  Treatments for MF that might be considered 
supportive care are only allowable with medical monitor approval prior to administration.   

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 47 of 83 
The following therapies and procedures are prohibited throughout the study: 
 
 
Chemotherapy, interferon, or other treatment for MF, with the exception of up to 2 weeks of 
corticosteroids (up to 20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) and/or 2 weeks of hydroxyurea as needed 
to reduce the risk of or treat the symptoms of ruxolitinib withdrawal 
 
Antiplatelet or anticoagulation agents, with the exception of  100 mg/day of aspirin 
 
Growth factor therapies, including erythropoietin and thrombopoietin 
 
Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (Appendix 5) and strong CYP450 inducers (Appendix 6), except as 
needed to treat AEs, with medical monitor approval  
 
Any drugs with significant potential for QTc prolongation (Appendix 8), except as needed to treat 
AEs, with medical monitor approval 
 
Splenic irradiation or splenectomy 
 
Also refer to the Pacritinib Dosage Management Guidelines (Section 6.5) for guidelines on treatment of 
AEs. 
 
6.6.1 
Management of Gastrointestinal Toxicity  
The need for managing gastrointestinal (GI) effects of pacritinib, particularly diarrhea, should be 
anticipated.  A careful baseline evaluation of bowel habits (frequency and consistency of bowel 
movements) should be obtained at baseline for all patients. 
At the baseline visit, all patients will be provided with a prescription (and instructions to fill that 
prescription) for loperamide (Imodium®) or a similarly effective antidiarrheal drug.  Patients will be 
instructed to start taking the prescribed loperamide or other antidiarrheal drug per package and physician 
instructions as soon as they notice any changes in frequency or consistency of bowel movements after 
starting study treatment.  
Early intervention for diarrhea should be initiated for patients with increases of one grade or more in 
diarrhea (Appendix 9).  At the investigator’s discretion, prophylactic use of antidiarrheals may be initiated 
for patients or populations in whom it is judged necessary to enhance patient safety. Standard supportive 
care measures to control symptoms of GI toxicity such as diarrhea, constipation, and nausea should be 
provided.   
 
7 
Study Assessments 
 
7.1 
Criteria for Evaluation 
 
7.1.1 
Efficacy 
 
Efficacy assessments will be performed as described below until approval of Amendment 6, at which point 
assessments cease following the patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 30-day post (EOT) visit as applicable. 
 
7.1.1.1 
Spleen Volume 
 
MRI is the preferred modality; CT scan will be used for patients who cannot undergo MRI, or for whom 
MRI is not available.  Imaging should be performed without contrast agent.  For each patient, the same 
imaging modality should be used throughout the study.   
Spleen volume will be measured by MRI (preferred) or CT at screening and at the end of weeks 12 and 24 
visits.  Spleen volume will also be measured at the end of treatment if this does not occur at the end of 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 48 of 83 
Week 24. For patients who continue on pacritinib past Week 24, spleen volume will be assessed by MRI 
or CT every 3 months up to 2 years.  Patients who discontinue treatment (except withdraw of consent or 
death) will be required to complete the end of treatment visit within 7 days of stopping treatment.  
Unscheduled imaging studies may be performed at physician discretion if he/she considers disease-related 
symptoms to be worsening.  All images generated as part of unscheduled evaluations must be submitted 
by the investigator for central review.  An independent radiologist, blinded to all patient and site 
identifiers and treatment assignments, will measure spleen volume.  While images generated as part of 
unscheduled visits may be read locally if treatment discontinuation is being considered, only the 
scheduled centrally read images will be used for the efficacy analysis.  
 
7.1.1.2 
Spleen Size Assessment by Physical Examination 
 
Spleen size, assessed by physical examination as the distance below the LCM at the midclavicular line, 
will be performed with each scheduled physical examination.   
 
7.1.1.3 
Disease-Related Signs and Symptoms 
 
Patient-reported disease-related symptoms as assessed by the validated PRO instrument MPN-SAF TSS 
2.0 (Appendix 5) will be collected daily using an electronic diary and will be evaluated as a part of the 
dose–response relationship.  Patients must begin reporting symptoms via electronic diary at least 7 days 
before starting pacritinib treatment and will continue until the Week 48 visit.  After Week 48, the patient 
will fill out the questionnaire (Appendix 3) at each follow up visit. The questionnaire is the same PRO 
instrument and uses a 7 day recall period. The MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 will be translated and available on the 
eDiary device in several different languages to accommodate an international study.   
In addition, the patient global impression assessment questionnaire (Appendix 11) will be completed at 
the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or the end of treatment visit, and every 3 months up to 2.5 years. 
 
7.1.1.4 
Other Assessments 
 
Patients will be followed for leukemic transformation and frequency of RBC and platelet transfusions. 
DNA samples will also be collected for analysis of mutations associated with myelofibrosis at baseline 
and Week 24. 
 
7.1.2 
Safety 
 
Safety assessments will be performed as described below until approval of Amendment 6, at which point 
assessments cease following the patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 30-day post (EOT) visit as applicable. 
 
7.1.2.1 
Adverse Events 
 
All AEs, including serious adverse events (SAEs), will be collected during the clinical study from the 
time the patient signs the informed consent through 30 days following last dose of study treatment.  For 
screened patients who are not randomized, only SAEs occurring between the time of informed consent 
and determination of screen failure are to be reported; AEs occurring in this time period that do not meet 
the definition of an SAE do not need to be reported.  SAEs that occur after study completion and are 
considered by the investigator to be related to pacritinib should be reported to the Sponsor. 
 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 49 of 83 
7.1.2.2 
Hematology 
 
Hematology parameters including CBC, differential, platelet count, and hemoglobin A1C will be 
evaluated at screening, baseline, the end of week 4, the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or the end of 
treatment visit, every 3 months during the follow up period, and 30 days after the last dose of study 
treatment.  In addition, for patients with baseline platelet count of ≤ 50,000/µL, the platelet count will be 
monitored weekly by the central laboratory for the first 8 weeks, then monthly if counts remain 
≤ 50,000/µL. Samples collected at any visits for platelet counts must be submitted to the central 
laboratory for analysis, but in addition can be analyzed locally for assessment and management of patients 
in real time. Additional platelet count testing should be done as clinically indicated. 
 
7.1.2.3 
Coagulation Testing 
 
Coagulation testing will include PT, INR, PTT, and TT at screening, baseline, the end of week 4, the end 
of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or the end of treatment visit, every 3 months during the follow up period, 
and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment. Additional coagulation testing should be done as 
clinically indicated. 
These results will be taken into account, together with baseline platelet counts and prior medical history 
of bleeding, to help guide ongoing hematologic monitoring of platelet counts and clinical monitoring for 
bleeding. 
 
7.1.2.4 
Serum Chemistry 
 
Screening laboratory assessments should be performed at least 1 week after the end of prior therapy.  
Serum chemistry parameters (ALT/SGPT and AST/SGOT, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin [total, direct, 
and indirect], creatinine, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, 
calcium, phosphate, magnesium, blood urea nitrogen (BUN)/urea, albumin, amylase, lipase, glucose, 
cholesterol, uric acid, and high specificity CRP) will be evaluated by a central laboratory at screening, at 
baseline, and as clinically indicated.  Unscheduled chemistry assessments may be performed locally 
and/or centrally whenever clinically indicated.  Blood samples drawn at unscheduled visits for serum 
chemistry evaluation should be submitted to the central laboratory for assessment in addition to any local 
laboratories as needed for timely decisions regarding patient care. 
 
7.1.2.5 
ECG Assessment 
 
All patients will have a 12-lead ECG (collected in triplicate) ), including QTc calculation corrected by the 
Fredericia method, at screening, baseline, the end of Week 4, the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or 
the end of treatment visit, and every 3 months while in the follow-up period (pre-dose only for the 
post-24-week follow-up visit and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.  Additional ECGs may be 
required in the event patient demonstrates QTc prolongation.  See Section 6.5.3 for appropriate pacritinib 
dose adjustment guidelines and additional ECG requirements.  All ECGs will be centrally read by a 
blinded independent cardiologist.  
 
7.1.2.6 
Cardiac Ejection Fraction Assessment 
 
All patients will have ejection fraction checked (echocardiogram or MUGA scan) at screening, the end of 
Week 4, the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24, or the end of treatment visit, and every 6 months while 
in the follow up period, and 30 days after the last dose of study treatment.  If pacritinib treatment is 
resumed after holding for ejection fraction abnormality, ejection fraction should be reassessed about 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 50 of 83 
14 days later, then at least every 3 months as per the above schedule.  Additional ejection fraction testing 
shall be done as clinically indicated (see dosage modifications in Section 6.5). 
 
7.1.3 
Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics 
 
The Sponsor will collect PK samples from all patients in each dosing arm at the following timepoints:  
 
Sparse Sampling (all patients): End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours 
(predose), 4 hours (±10 minutes),  and 8 hours (±15 minutes) postdose 
 
Dense Sampling (performed at selected sites for approximately 6 to 8 patients total per dose 
arm, at which point all further patients will have PK evaluated by sparse sample 
collection): Week 1 Day 1: 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours 
(± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose and 24 hours postdose (within 
30 minutes before the Day 2 dose), End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 
0 hours (predose), 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 
8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
On the day prior to PK and PD blood sampling, the patient must note the time of dosing and report it to 
the site during their visit the following day.  On the day of PK and PD blood sampling, patients must not 
take the daily dose of pacritinib prior to the clinic visit.  Given the sampling schedule, PK and PD 
samples should be collected before and after the morning dose for patients taking pacritinib twice per day 
(BID).   
Results will be used to evaluate the relationship between drug exposure and safety and efficacy as well as 
biomarkers associated with the JAK/STAT pathway. 
 
7.1.4 
Informed Consent, Screening, and Washout of Prohibited Concomitant Medications Before 
Beginning Study Treatment 
 
Informed consent must be obtained before study procedures and screening evaluations are performed, 
unless those evaluations are performed as part of standard of care. Patients who do not meet eligibility 
criteria at screening may be rescreened at a later date. 
Informed consent must be obtained before any protocol-defined assessments including drug washout. The 
informed consent process should be documented in the patient’s medical chart. A 2-week washout will be 
required for anticoagulation agents, antiplatelet agents except aspirin dosages of ≤100 mg/day, strong 
CYP450 inducers, and QTc prolonging agents. A 28-day washout period will be required for any 
experimental therapies. 
The screening evaluations listed below are to be carried out between 35 and 7 days prior to the start of 
treatment, with the exception of MRI or CT scan, which must be performed between 10 and 4 days 
prior to the start of the study.

Women of childbearing potential must use highly effective methods (defined as those resulting in a 
failure rate of <1% per year when used consistently and correctly) for the duration of study treatment 
and for 12 months after last dose of study drug. The contraceptive methods considered highly 
effective are intrauterine devices and hormonal contraceptives (contraceptive pills, implants, 
transdermal patches, hormonal vaginal devices, or injections with prolonged release). Males must use 
a condom for the duration of the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. When 
abstinence is used as a method of birth control, only true abstinence is acceptable, when this is in line 
with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient.  Periodic abstinence (calendar, ovulation, 
symptothermal, and post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of 
contraception.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Analysis  
 
8.1 
Blood Sample Collection, Handling, and Shipping 
 
Blood samples for PK and PD analyses should be collected in appropriate blood collection tubes as 
defined in the study manuals.  On the days when blood samples for PK and PD analyses are collected, 
patients should be instructed not to take pacritinib at home.  The time/date when the prior dose was 
administered must be recorded in the source documents and on the appropriate eCRF page. The Sponsor 
will provide the investigator with sample collection kits as well as a manual containing details for the 
preparation of blood samples to be collected.  Shipping supplies and instructions will also be provided.  
 
8.2 
Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Assessments 
 
The Sponsor will collect PK samples from all patients in each dosing arm at the following timepoints: 
 
Sparse Sampling (all patients): End of Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours 
(predose), 4 hours (±10 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
 
Dense Sampling (performed at selected sites for approximately 6 to 8 patients total per dose arm, 
at which point all further patients will have PK evaluated by sparse sample collection): Week 1 
Day 1: 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours (± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours 
(± 15 minutes) postdose and 24 hours postdose (within 30 minutes before the Day 2 dose), End of 
Week 12 and End of Week 24: 30 minutes to 0 hours (predose), 2 hours (± 5 minutes), 4 hours 
(± 10 minutes), 6 hours (± 15 minutes), and 8 hours (± 15 minutes) postdose 
Given the sampling schedule, PK and PD samples should be collected before and after the morning dose 
for patients taking pacritinib twice a day (BID).  The PK parameters, minimum concentration observed, 
maximum concentration observed, and area under the curve will be determined and summarized using 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 55 of 83 
descriptive statistics for each pacritinib dosage arm. Exposure-response analyses will be conducted on 
both safety and efficacy populations in the study.  PD samples will be analyzed for biomarkers associated 
with the JAK/STAT pathway.

Assessment of Safety 
 
9.1 
Adverse Events 
 
9.1.1 
Definition of an Adverse Event 
 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a 
pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this 
treatment.   
Examples of AEs include, but are not limited to: 
 
 
Any unfavorable and unintended sign, including an abnormal laboratory finding, symptom, medical 
diagnosis, or concomitant disease temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether 
considered related to study drug or not 
 
Abnormalities observed during the study that meet any of the criteria below: 
- 
A laboratory or other test result that is clinically significant or requires active intervention, 
retesting, or ongoing medical monitoring 
- 
Requires discontinuation, dosage reduction, or delay of study drug  
- 
Requires that the patient receive specific corrective or supportive therapy 
- 
Clinically significant changes noted during physical examinations, cardiac monitoring, imaging 
studies, biopsies, and other safety assessments, whether or not these procedures were required by 
the protocol 
Progressive disease is not an AE. 
 
9.1.2 
Reporting Adverse Events 
 
Adverse events will be collected as described below until approval of Amendment 6, at which point 
assessments cease following the patient’s End-of-Treatment, or 30-day post (EOT) visit as applicable. 
 
All baseline conditions and AEs will be collected during the clinical study from the time the patient signs 
the informed consent through 30 days following last dose of study drug.  
For screened patients who are not randomized, only SAEs occurring between the time of informed 
consent and determination of screen failure are reported; AEs occurring in this time period that do not 
meet the definition of an SAE do not need to be reported.  
AEs can be spontaneously reported or elicited during open-ended questioning, examination, or evaluation 
of the patient, or may be detected through a clinically meaningful procedure. To prevent bias, patients 
should not be questioned regarding the specific occurrence of one or more AEs. 
The following information should be captured for all AEs: date of onset and resolution, severity per 
CTCAE, seriousness, the investigator’s assessment of relationship to study drug, event outcome, and 
action taken with study medication due to the reported event. If concomitant treatment is given for the 
AE, this information should be captured on the appropriate eCRF.   
When recording AEs, the diagnosis of the underlying illness or disorder should be used as the event term 
or description on the eCRF and symptoms of the illness or disorder should not be reported as separate 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 56 of 83 
AEs. It is expected that whenever possible the clinical term, rather than the laboratory term, for the AE 
will be used by the reporting investigator (e.g., “anemia” versus “low hemoglobin value”). 
If an AE results in early termination of the patient’s study treatment period, “AE” should be selected as 
the reason for discontinuation on the eCRF.  However, if the AE that resulted in early termination was a 
sign or symptom of progressive disease, “progressive myelofibrosis” should be selected as the reason for 
discontinuation on the eCRF.  
 
Special Considerations 
 
 
Elective procedures or routinely scheduled treatments are not AEs.  However, any untoward medical 
event occurring during a prescheduled elective procedure or routinely scheduled treatment should be 
documented as an AE. 
 
Baseline conditions are not AEs; however, worsening of a baseline condition following study drug 
administration is an AE. 
 
Death alone is not considered an AE; it can be an outcome of an AE. Reports of death should be 
accompanied by the corresponding AE term for the event that led to the outcome of death. However, 
sudden death or death due to unexplainable cause(s) should be reported as an SAE, while follow-up is 
pursued to determine the cause.  
 
If progressive disease is the primary cause of death, the term “progressive myelofibrosis” should be 
reported on the death eCRF. 
 
All AEs ongoing at the time of death that are not the primary cause of death will remain not resolved on 
the eCRFs.  
 
9.1.3 
Criteria for Assessing Adverse Events 
 
9.1.3.1 
Severity 
 
The term “severe” is a measure of intensity; a severe event is not necessarily serious.   
The NCI CTCAE version 4.0 should be used to assess and grade AE severity, including laboratory 
abnormalities identified as AEs.  A copy of these criteria is provided in the study manual, however minor 
version updates (i.e., 4.01, 4.02 and above) may be used at the discretion of the Sponsor.  Central 
laboratory values will be used to grade and record AEs in EDC. 
 
9.1.3.2 
Relationship 
 
The relationship of an AE to the study treatment(s) will be assessed using the guidelines described below.  
If an AE is deemed related to study treatment(s) but the investigator cannot attribute the relationship 
solely to a single treatment, the investigator should indicate that the AE is related to all possible agents.  
Any AE for which there is no assessed causal relationship shall be assessed by the Sponsor as related, and 
will require immediate follow up with the site to determine the investigator’s assessment.   
 
Possible 
 
There is a reasonable causal relationship between the event and study treatment, the event occurred within 
a plausible time relationship to study treatment administration, but the event could also possibly be 
explained by the condition under study, concurrent disease, other drugs or chemicals, or other 
circumstances.  Dechallenge information is lacking or unclear. 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 57 of 83 
 
Unlikely 
 
There is a temporal relationship of the event to study treatment but not a reasonable causal relationship, or 
there is no temporal relationship to study treatment administration or the condition under study, 
concurrent disease, other drugs or chemicals, or other circumstances provide a plausible explanation for 
the event. 
 
9.1.3.3 
Outcome 
 
AEs will be characterized according to the outcomes described in Table 8.

9.1.4 
Serious Adverse Events 
 
9.1.4.1 
Definition of a Serious Adverse Event 
 
A SAE is an AE that, at any dosage, suggests a significant hazard or side effect, regardless of its 
relationship to the study drug.  An AE is serious if it meets any of the criteria below:  
 
1. Results in death  

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 58 of 83 
2. Is life-threatening: in the view of the investigator, the event placed the patient at immediate risk of 
death. This does not include an AE that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused 
death. 
3. Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization (see Exceptions 
below) 
4. Results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to 
conduct normal life functions 
5. Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
6. Is an important medical event that is not fatal, life threatening, or requiring hospitalization, but may 
be considered serious if, based on appropriate medical judgment, the event jeopardized the patient 
and required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above (Items 1 to 
5) 
7. Cancer/overdose: All cases of new cancers, with the exception of disease progression/transformation 
to acute myeloid leukemia, and drug overdose (defined as accidental or intentional ingestion of any 
dosage of a product that is considered both excessive and medically important) must be reported 
immediately using the SAE form. All cases of drug overdose, irrespective of seriousness or 
association with AE(s), must be reported to the Sponsor within 24 hours. Determination of 
seriousness will be reached in consultation with the Safety Physician, CTI BioPharma Corp. 
Pharmacovigilance US Headquarters or designee.  Additional instructions for reporting 
cancer/overdose information will be provided by the Sponsor in the study binder. 
 
9.1.4.2 
Exceptions 
 
Hospitalizations not reported as SAEs include admissions for:  
 
1. Planned, non-life-threatening medical/surgical procedures (e.g., admission for transfusion as required 
per local medical practice) 
2. Routine health assessments requiring admission for health status documentation (e.g., routine 
gastroscopy, colonoscopy, etc.) 
3. Other life circumstances that have no bearing on health status and require no medical/surgical 
intervention (e.g., lack of housing, family circumstances, etc.) 
4. Administration of study medication 
 
9.1.4.3 
Reporting Serious Adverse Events to the Sponsor 
 
AEs, including SAEs, irrespective of causal relationship, will be collected during the clinical study from 
the time the patient signs the informed consent through 30 days following the last dose of study drug. The 
site will notify the Sponsor of the SAE via the EDC system by recording the event on the SAE eCRF and 
checking the appropriate box on the eCRF indicating that the event meets SAE criteria.  The EDC system 
will send an auto-generated email notification to CTI BioPharma Corp Pharmacovigilance that an SAE 
has been identified and will be reported.  The site must send the paper SAE form via email 
(SAE@CTIbiopharma.com) within 24 hours of the site’s first awareness of an SAE.   
 
Special Considerations: 
 
 
SAEs considered to be related (i.e., assessed as possibly related) to study drug or study procedure by 
the investigator or Sponsor shall be followed until the event resolves, stabilizes or the patient is lost to 
follow up.  

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 59 of 83 
 
SAEs assessed as unlikely related to study drug or study procedures shall be followed for 30 days 
after the last dose of study treatment, or until the event resolves, returns to baseline, stabilizes or the 
patient is lost to follow-up, whichever comes first.  
 
For screened patients who are not randomized, only SAEs occurring between the time of informed 
consent and determination of screen failure are reported.  
 
All SAEs for randomized patients must have a corresponding AE recorded on the eCRF with an exact 
match to the event term or description.  
 
An SAE form should be completed for any event for which doubt exists regarding its seriousness. 
 
If an ongoing SAE changes in intensity, relationship to study drug, or as new information becomes 
available and/or known for the event, a follow-up SAE report should be completed and sent to the 
Sponsor within 24 hours of the change in SAE assessment.   
 
Any SAE that occurs after study completion and is considered by the investigator to be related to 
pacritinib should be reported to the Sponsor. 
 
A brief narrative outlining the details of the SAE and treatment and outcome are to be included on the 
SAE form.  Follow-up information, such as laboratory reports, discharge summaries, autopsy reports, and 
information concerning outcome of the event, should be provided as soon as the information becomes 
available and provided to CTI Pharmacovigilance via email at SAE@CTIbiopharma.com or fax 
(1-866-660-8967).  
Source documents should be submitted in English.  If source documents are not in English, the 
investigator must summarize the source documents and provide a complete English narrative that includes 
a description of the event as it evolved, the results of all diagnostic procedures performed and treatments 
administered, and the outcome of the event. 
 
9.1.4.4 
Reporting Serious Adverse Events to the Regulatory Agencies, Institutional Review Boards, 
and/or Ethics Committees 
 
The Sponsor will assess SAEs for expedited reporting against the most current approved version of the 
Investigator Brochure.  Until an AE is identified in the Reference Safety Information of the IB or SmPC, 
it is considered unexpected, regardless of whether the AE has been submitted previously as an expedited 
report. 
Expedited reporting will be performed by the Sponsor in accordance with local regulation.   
Upon receiving an expedited report, the investigator must review and retain the notice with the 
Investigator Brochure and shall be responsible for submitting expedited reports to their Institutional 
Review Board (IRB)/EC in accordance with institutional guidelines. Regardless of institutional 
guidelines, investigators shall submit expedited reports to their IRB/EC in the event that the Sponsor 
identifies an expedited report to represent a new and/or unforeseen risk.  
In support of required progress reports, the Sponsor will provide the investigator and/or Ethics Committee 
with a summary of all SAEs reported for the study at predefined intervals (e.g., quarterly) and/or upon 
request. 
 
Pregnancy 
 
Pregnancy alone is not considered an AE. However, if a patient becomes pregnant or causes a pregnancy 
during treatment and/or within one month of ending treatment even if the patient is withdrawn from 
study, this must be reported to the Sponsor immediately on the Pregnancy Reporting Form.  The 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 60 of 83 
investigator must obtain written authorization (medical records release) from a female partner of a male 
patient prior to obtaining follow-up.   
The investigator must follow the pregnancy either to term or termination and will collect data on both 
maternal and fetal outcome.  All pregnancy outcomes will be recorded on the Pregnancy Reporting Form.  
Additional instructions for reporting pregnancy information will be provided by the Sponsor in the study 
binder. 
Normal outcomes will be communicated to the Sponsor within 30 calendar days of birth/delivery.  
Abnormal pregnancy outcomes and/or any AE for the child or fetus (including miscarriage) will also be 
recorded in the AE eCRF and on the SAE form.  The associated SAE Report Form should be sent to the 
Sponsor per the procedure and timelines described within Section 9.1.4.3, Reporting Serious Adverse 
Events to the Sponsor.  
 
Overdose 
 
Overdose is defined as any deviation from the defined or prescribed use of study drug as applicable for 
the drug and study design. Occurrences of overdose should be reported to the Sponsor on an SAE Report 
Form.  Reports of overdose will be evaluated on a case by case basis. Additional instructions for reporting 
overdose information will be provided by the Sponsor in the study binder. 
 
Deaths 
 
All deaths that occur during the study must be recorded on the appropriate eCRF.  As described in 
Sections 9.1.2 and 9.1.3.1, death alone is not considered an AE; it is an outcome of an AE. Reports of 
death should be accompanied by the corresponding AE term for the event that led to the outcome of 
death. Progressive disease is not an AE.  
Sudden death or death due to unexplainable cause(s) should be reported as an SAE, while follow-up is 
pursued to determine the cause.   
 
9.2 
Laboratory Evaluation 
 
All scheduled clinical laboratory test values collected as part of the study will be evaluated by a central 
laboratory.  In addition, any laboratory test samples collected at unscheduled visits will be submitted to 
the central laboratory, although laboratory tests performed for patient management in real time may be 
analyzed locally. 
The investigator may use local or central laboratory evaluations (as dictated by local standards of care) to 
facilitate real-time decisions about study treatment administration, eligibility, and dosage modifications 
and for evaluation of signs and symptoms.  Samples collected at unscheduled visits that are analyzed in a 
local laboratory must also be submitted to the central laboratory and the results entered into the EDC. 
Treatment decisions (such as dose delays) and adverse events may be based on either local or central 
laboratory results.  For reporting purposes, central lab values are to be used to grade adverse events. 
Regardless of whether serum samples, radiologic material and other patient data are sent to a central lab 
or independent review panel for study purposes, treatment decisions must be made by the investigator 
based on his or her clinical assessment of the patient and his or her interpretations, radiology assessments, 
and other tests.

9.3 
Vital Signs and Physical Examination 
 
Vital signs (including blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, temperature, and body weight) and physical 
examinations (including spleen measurement) will be obtained at screening, baseline, the end of week 4, 
the end of Week 12, the end of Week 24 or the end of treatment visit.  Height will be measured only at 
baseline. 
 
9.4 
Safety Surveillance 
 
9.4.1 
Routine Pharmacovigilance Monitoring 
 
The Sponsor’s pharmacovigilance committee will monitor safety data every month during the clinical 
study by examining the incidence and severity of AEs, changes in laboratory results, and other data (such 
as aggregate analysis of data from other pacritinib studies) as appropriate.  The committee will 
communicate clinically important increases in the rate of serious adverse reactions to the IDMC (see 
Section 2.2), investigators, and regulatory agencies, as appropriate.  A clinically important increase will 
be considered an increase in frequency and/or severity in an event which leads to a serious outcome and 
exceeds the rate(s) of the reported event listed in the Investigator Brochure reference safety information.   
Single events assessed as serious, unexpected and related will continue to be reported on an expedited 
basis per regulatory requirement.   
 
10 Data Management 
 
The CTI BioPharma Corp. Clinical Data Management Department or its designee will prepare guidelines 
for data entry and data handling, which will include procedures for data verification and electronic edit 
checks.  The complete data management process will be described in the Data Management Plan. 
 
10.1 Data Collection 
 
An electronic data capture (EDC) system will be used for this study. Designated site personnel will enter 
patient data required by the protocol into eCRFs based on source documents.  Personnel will not receive 
access to the EDC system until they have completed all training requirements.  The EDC system will 
provide an automatic audit trail of all changes made to the clinical database. 
 
10.2 Data Entry and Quality Control 
 
Data items will be entered directly from source documents by designated site personnel using single data 
entry.  Concomitant medications entered into the database will be encoded using the World Health 
Organization Drug Reference Dictionary. AEs, coexisting disease, and other data items will be encoded 
using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terminology. 
 
Data managed by a central vendor, such as laboratory test data, will be stored electronically in a database 
system maintained by the central vendor. 
CTI BioPharma Corp. staff or designees will review the data on a periodic basis to ensure validity, 
accuracy and completeness.  Data suspected to be discrepant or incomplete will be questioned using data 
queries.  Data queries resulting from these reviews will be sent to the study sites via the EDC system. The 
staff at the study sites will respond to the queries in the EDC system and these responses will be reviewed 
by CTI BioPharma Corp. staff or designee.

11 Statistical Analysis Plan 
 
Statistical analysis of the study data will be the responsibility of CTI BioPharma Corp. Biostatistics 
Department or its designee. This section describes the statistical methodology used in the analysis of the 
primary safety and efficacy endpoints to aid the decision of dosage determination. Other supportive 
analyses will be specified in a separate statistical analysis plan (SAP). The SAP will be finalized before 
the first patient is randomized. 
 
11.1 Variables for the Analysis 
 
Efficacy 
 
 
The primary efficacy variable for dosage selection is the percent reduction in spleen volume from 
baseline as measured by MRI (preferred) or CT at Weeks 12 and 24.  
 
Other supportive measures for evaluation as part of the dose–response relationship include: the 
percentage of patients who achieve at least 35% reduction in spleen volume; % TSS reduction from 
baseline; and the percentage of patients with at least 50% reduction in TSS.  
 
Long term efficacy is evaluated using percent reduction in spleen volume from baseline as measured 
by MRI or CT, percent reduction in TSS from baseline, percent reduction in spleen length by physical 
exam and the patient global impression assessment. 
 
Safety 
 
 
The primary safety measure for dosage selection is the percentage of patients with CTCAE grade ≥3 
cardiac AEs (Standardized MedDRA Query [SMQ]), CTCAE grade ≥3 hemorrhage AEs (SMQ), 
CTCAE grade ≥4 thrombocytopenia toxicity (central laboratory based), or CTCAE grade ≥4 anemia 
toxicity (central laboratory based).  
 
All other safety data including AEs, death, and clinical laboratory measures will be used as supportive 
measures for evaluation of pacritinib dose-safety relationship and for long term safety evaluation. 
 
11.2 Hypotheses 
 
The primary objective of this study is to explore the dose–response relationship for pacritinib among 
primary and secondary MF patients to determine a recommended dosage for further clinical studies. 
There is no formal statistical hypothesis to be tested.  
 
11.3 Analysis Populations 
 
11.3.1 Full Analysis Set 
 
The full analysis set (FAS) is defined as all randomized patients who received at least one dose of study 
treatment. Patients in this population will be analyzed according to the treatment arm to which they were 
assigned at randomization. The FAS will serve as the population for the analyses of efficacy, in keeping 
with the intent-to-treat (ITT) principle. 
 
 
 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 63 of 83 
11.3.2 Safety Population 
 
The safety population is defined as all randomized patients who received at least one dose of study 
treatment.  All safety analyses will be performed using the safety population, and patients in this 
population will be analyzed according to the treatment actually received. 
 
11.3.3 Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Evaluable Population 
 
The PK/PD evaluable population is defined as all randomized patients who received any dose of study 
treatment and have the necessary baseline and post-baseline measurements to provide interpretable results 
for the specific parameters of interest.  The study pharmacokineticist will review data listings of patient 
dosing and sample records to identify patients with appropriate samples for the analysis. 
 
11.4 Efficacy Analysis 
 
Summary statistics and 95% confidence intervals of the percent change in spleen volume by visit and the 
proportion of patients achieving a ≥35% reduction at Weeks 12 and 24 will be generated for each arm for 
the final locked data.  The same analysis will be repeated for percent change in TSS and the proportion of 
patients achieving a ≥50% reduction in TSS at Weeks 12 and 24.   
In addition, analyses of the dose–response and dose-exposure-response relationship will be performed 
using a modeling approach.  The details of the analysis will be described in the SAP. 
 
11.5 Multiplicity 
 
No formal statistical hypothesis testing will be performed, thus no multiplicity adjustment is needed. 
 
11.6 Safety Analysis 
 
The assessment of safety will be based mainly on the frequency of AEs and the number of laboratory 
values that fall outside of predetermined ranges. 
Treatment-emergent AEs will be coded using MedDRA and summarized by system organ class, preferred 
term, and treatment arm as the number and percentage of patients with an event. AE data for hemorrhagic 
and cardiac events will be identified based on SMQs and analyzed as a SMQ group by treatment arm. 
Incidences of hemorrhagic and cardiac AE data by SMQs over 8-week interval will be summarized by 
treatment arm. The following subsets of treatment-emergent AEs will also be summarized by treatment 
arm: AEs related to study treatment, CTCAE grade 3 or 4 AEs, AEs leading to treatment discontinuation, 
deaths, and SAEs.  
Clinical laboratory data will be summarized with descriptive statistics by treatment and timepoint.  Each 
patient’s data will be classified by the CTCAE grade, where possible, and summarized in shift tables 
comparing the worst post-baseline visit to baseline.  
 
11.7 Determination of Sample Size  
 
The determination of sample size for this dosage finding study was not only driven by a targeted 
predictive probability, but also to ensure adequate precision to evaluate efficacy using percent reduction 
of spleen volume from baseline. Based on past clinical experience (e.g., 10% SVR deemed as the 
minimum clinically meaningful reduction), variance in percent reduction in spleen volume (standard 

CTI BioPharma Corp. 
PAC203 Protocol Amendment 6 
 
Page 64 of 83 
deviation around 20%) from PERSIST-1 and PERSIST-2 studies, and the need for exploratory modeling 
analysis of pacritinib dose–response and dose–exposure-response relationship, a maximum of 30 
evaluable patients per treatment arm are adequate to evaluate efficacy.  
With 50 patients per arm, if the true incidence rate for a specified safety event is 5% among patients per 
each arm, then the chance of observing at least 1 event among 50 patients will be 92%.  At the end of the 
study, for each treatment group, if none of the 50 patients experience an AE, then the true incidence rate 
of the AE is no greater than 3.2% with 80% confidence (no greater than 4.5% with 90% confidence). 
Approximately 150 patients are planned for enrollment (up to 50 patients per arm). 
 
11.8 Interim Analyses 
 
No additional analysis will be performed in this study following the first interim analysis performed on 29 
June 2018.  
 
11.9 Safety Stopping Criteria 
 
In the event of the occurrence of 2 treatment-emergent CTCAE grade ≥4 cardiac AEs or 
2 treatment-emergent CTCAE grade ≥4 hemorrhage AEs in any of the individual treatment arms, study 
enrollment will be suspended until the IDMC has adjudicated the events.  If the IDMC confirms the 
nature and grade of the events together with a relationship to study drug, the IDMC may recommend 
closure of one or more treatment arms.  This recommendation is non-binding.  The FDA and other 
competent authorities will be notified of any IDMC meeting that is convened under these circumstances, 
and the resultant decision will be reported to the FDA within 2 business days. The MHRA will be 
informed via a substantial amendment. After the first IDMC meeting, patients will continue to be enrolled 
into each of the remaining treatment arms to further evaluate safety and efficacy at doses carried forward.  
In the event one or more arms are suspended or terminated for a safety observation, randomization into 
the arm(s) will be halted immediately, however patients who are experiencing benefit, in the opinion of 
the investigator and Sponsor, and who were randomized to an arm that is suspended or terminated, may 
continue treatment. 
 
12 Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Analyses 
 
The PK parameters, minimum concentration observed, maximum concentration observed, and area under 
the curve will be determined and summarized using descriptive statistics for each pacritinib dosage arm. 
Exposure-response analyses will be conducted on both safety and efficacy populations in the study.  PD 
samples will be analyzed for biomarkers associated with the JAK/STAT pathway.   
 
13 Independent Data Monitoring Committee 
 
See Section 2.2 for a description of the composition and responsibilities of the IDMC. 
 
14 Study Administration and Investigator Obligations 
 
For studies conducted outside the US under a US Investigational New Drug (IND), the principal 
investigator must comply with US FDA IND regulations and with those of relevant national and local 
health authorities.

14.1 Study Drug Accountability 
 
CTI BioPharma Corp. will provide pacritinib.  The recipient will acknowledge receipt of the drug by 
returning the appropriate shipping receipt form according to the study-specific pharmacy manual.  
Damaged supplies will be replaced. 
Accurate records of all pacritinib dispensed from and returned to the study site should be recorded by 
using the Drug Inventory Log (refer to study-specific pharmacy manual). 
Pacritinib will be disposed of at the study site according to institutional standard operating procedures 
after study monitors have completed the drug inventory reconciliation.  The method of destruction must 
be documented.  A copy of the destruction certification along with the inventory of destroyed clinical 
material will be provided to CTI BioPharma Corp. 
 
14.2 Informed Consent 
 
CTI BioPharma Corp. will provide a sample informed consent form (ICF) to each site for submission and 
approval by site's Institutional Review Board (IRB), Research Ethics Board (REB), or Independent Ethics 
Committee (IEC).  CTI BioPharma Corp. or its designee must review and approve any proposed 
deviations from the sample ICF. Patients must be re-consented to the most current IRB/REB/IEC 
approved version of the ICF during their participation in the study. The investigator must provide the final 
IRB/REC/IEC approved ICF to CTI BioPharma Corp. for regulatory purposes. 
The patient or the patient’s legally authorized representative must sign the ICF before his or her 
participation in the study.  The source record for each patient shall document that informed consent was 
obtained prior to participation in the study.  A copy of each signed ICF or Addendum to an existing ICF 
must be provided to the patient or the patient’s legally authorized representative.  If applicable, it will be 
provided in a certified translation of the local language. 
All signed consent forms must remain in each patient’s study file and must be available for verification by 
the study monitor, Sponsor representative, or regulatory agency at any time. 
 
14.3 Disclosure of Data 
 
Patient medical information obtained by this study is confidential, and disclosure to third parties other 
than those noted below is prohibited. 
Upon the patient’s permission, medical information may be given to his or her personal physician or other 
appropriate medical personnel responsible for his or her welfare. 
Data generated by this study must be available for inspection upon request by representatives of the US 
FDA, national and local health authorities, CTI BioPharma Corp., its designees and the IRB/REB/IEC for 
each study site, if appropriate.

14.5 Study Monitoring 
 
Representatives of CTI BioPharma Corp. or their designee must be allowed to visit all study site locations 
at appropriate intervals to assure compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP), satisfactory enrollment 
rate, data recording, and protocol adherence. The frequency of monitoring may vary depending on 
enrollment rate and the quality of data collected. The investigator and staff are expected to cooperate and 
provide all relevant study documentation in detail at each site visit on request for review. The investigator 
agrees to cooperate with the monitor to ensure any problems detected in the course of these monitoring 
visits are resolved. In addition to these visits, CTI BioPharma Corp. or designee may monitor each site by 
phone to keep abreast of patient status and to answer questions. 
In order for the investigator to participate in this study, the study monitor must have direct access to 
source data for verification. This will be done by comparing data from the eCRFs with data from the 
patient’s clinic or hospital records (permission will be sought from the patient as part of the consent 
process).  
In addition, CTI BioPharma Corp. internal auditors and government inspectors may evaluate the study.  
They must be allowed access to eCRFs, source documents, and other study files.  CTI BioPharma Corp. 
audit reports will be kept confidential. 
The investigator should promptly notify CTI BioPharma Corp. of an audit scheduled by any regulatory 
authority, and immediately forward copies of audit reports. 
 
14.6 Record Retention 
 
US FDA regulations (21CFR§312.62[c]) and the International Council on Harmonization (ICH) 
Guideline for GCP (see Section 4.9 of the guideline) require that the principal investigator retain records 
and documents pertaining to the conduct of the study and distribution of investigational drug, including 
eCRFs, consent forms, laboratory test results, radiographic assessments, and medication inventory records 
for 2 years after the last marketing application approval in an ICH region or after at least 2 years have 
elapsed since formal discontinuation of clinical development of the investigational product.  All state and 
local laws for retention of records also apply.  CTI BioPharma Corp. will notify the principal investigator 
of these events. 
No records should be disposed of without the written approval of CTI BioPharma Corp. 
 
15 Ethics 
 
15.1 Good Clinical Practice 
 
The investigator and Sponsor will ensure that this study is conducted in full compliance with Declaration 
of Helsinki, ICH guidelines, US FDA regulations 21 CFR Parts 50, 56, and 312, and with the laws and 
regulations of the country in which the research is conducted, whichever affords the greatest protection to 
the study patient. 
 
15.2 Institutional Review Board/Research Ethics Board/Independent Ethics Committee 
 
The appropriate IRB, REB, or IEC must approve in writing the protocol and ICF for this study in 
accordance with the laws and regulation of the country in which the research is conducted prior to any 
patient being registered in this study. 

CTI BioPharma Corp.

Page 67 of 83 
Before the investigational drug will be shipped to the investigator, the investigator must provide CTI 
BioPharma Corp. with a copy of the IRB/REB/IEC approval letter stating that the study protocol and ICF 
have been reviewed and approved.  Original US FDA Form 1572 (for all studies conducted under US 
IND regulations) signed by the principal investigator, and a copy of the curriculum vitae for the principal 
investigator, and a copy of an IRB/REB/IEC approved ICF are also required. 
The investigator must also report all serious and medically significant AEs to the IRB/REB/IEC 
according to the local regulation.  Appendix 10 lists the responsibilities of the investigator. 
 
16 Termination of Study  
CTI BioPharma Corp. will retain the right to terminate the study and remove all the study materials from 
the study site at any time.  Specific instances that may precipitate such termination are as follows: 
 
 
Unsatisfactory enrollment with regard to quality or quantity 
 
Deviations from GCP 
 
Deviation from protocol requirements, without prior approval from CTI BioPharma Corp. 
 
Inaccurate and/or incomplete data recording on a recurrent basis 
 
The incidence and/or severity of adverse drug events in this or other studies indicating a potential 
health hazard caused by the treatment 
 
In terminating the study, CTI BioPharma Corp. and the investigator will assure adequate consideration to 
the protection of the patients’ interest. 
 
17 Study Amendments 
 
Changes in any portion of this protocol must be documented in the form of an amendment from CTI 
BioPharma Corp. and must be approved by the site’s IRB/REB/IEC before the amendment can be 
implemented at the site.  The IRB/REB/IEC chairperson may approve minor changes, or may designate 
one or more regulatory members to approve revisions. In addition, substantial amendments made to this 
protocol will require approval by the appropriate regulatory authority prior to implementation. 
 
18 Use of Information and Publication 
 
CTI BioPharma Corp. recognizes the importance of communicating medical study data and therefore 
encourages their publication in reputable scientific journals and at seminars or conferences.  The Clinical 
Study Agreement will describe the details of the processes of producing and reviewing reports, 
manuscripts, and presentations based on the data from this study.

Appendix 7 - The Stages of Heart Failure, New York Heart Association Classification 
 
To determine the best course of therapy, physicians often assess the stage of heart failure according to the 
New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system.  This system relates symptoms to 
everyday activities and the patient’s quality of life. 
 
Class 
Patient Symptoms 
I (Mild) 
No limitation of physical activity.  Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, 
palpitation, or dyspnea (shortness of breath). 
II (Mild) 
Slight limitation of physical activity.  Comfortable at rest, but ordinary physical activity 
results in fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea. 
III (Moderate) 
Marked limitation of physical activity.  Comfortable at rest, but less-than-ordinary activity 
causes fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea. 
IV (Severe) 
Unable to carry out any physical activity without discomfort.  Symptoms of cardiac 
insufficiency at rest.  If any physical activity is undertaken, discomfort is increased.
