We investigate the interaction of a periodic solution and a one-soliton solution for the spin-polarized current in a uniaxial ferromagnetic nanowire. The amplitude and wave number of the periodic solution for the spin current give different contributions to the width, velocity, and amplitude of the soliton. Moreover, we found that the soliton can be trapped only in space with proper conditions. Finally, we analyze the modulation instability and discuss dark solitary wave propagation for a spin current on the background of a periodic solution. In some special cases, the solution can be expressed as the linear combination of the periodic and soliton solutions.
