Multiple clinical trials across Early Phase 1, Phase 1, and Phase 2 have evaluated zelavespib (PU-H71) in hematologic conditions—such as myelofibrosis, accelerated or blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma—and advanced metastatic solid tumors. Sponsored by industry, academic, and government entities including Samus Therapeutics, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and the National Cancer Institute, these investigations are completed, active not recruiting, terminated, or withdrawn. Early evaluations established initial clinical feasibility in advanced malignancies, while subsequent studies explored targeted applications in specific myelofibrosis populations.

Mechanism and Biochemical Profile
Appendix RUO and cGMP Quality Standards
| Quality Dimension | RUO (Research Use Only) | cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Applicability | Prohibited in human clinical trials or medical diagnostics. | Mandatory for human clinical trials (Phase I–III) and therapies. |
| Regulatory Status | Non-regulated grade; exempt from drug manufacturing laws. | Legally enforced by health authorities (e.g., FDA, EMA, NMPA). |
| Facility Environment | Unclassified analytical or research laboratories. | Validated Cleanrooms (ISO Class 5–8) with continuous monitoring. |
| Quality Control | Basic purity and activity testing. | Rigorous safety release testing (Sterility, Endotoxin, Mycoplasma). |
| Process Validation | Basic equipment calibration; no process validation required. | Full qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) and complete batch records. |
| Quality Assurance | Vendor self-declared without required formal QMS. | Mandatory QA/QC unit, Change Control, CAPA, and vendor audits. |
| Regulatory Impact | High risk of IND rejection if used as a critical raw material. | Required for IND/NDA filings, supported by Drug Master Files (DMF). |
