This phase II trial tests if adding pacritinib to standard of care azacitidine or decitabine increases the number of patients able to proceed to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (bridging) for patients with accelerated and blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms. Pacritinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Azacitidine and decitabine are in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. They work by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Adding pacritinib to standard of care azacitidine or decitabine may increase the number of patients able to proceed to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with accelerated and blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms.
