MPN Workshop of the Carolinas 2024 | Criteria for the diagnosis of accelerated/blast phase MPN and challenges clinicians may face

Anand Patel, MD, University of Chicago Medical Center, Chicago, IL, discusses the criteria and challenges associated with diagnosing accelerated/blast-phase myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN-AP/BP). Blast percentage is used as a diagnostic tool, with those in the AP categorized as having 10-19% of blasts in the bone marrow or blood and BP classified as more than 20%. Molecular testing is important for managing MPN-AP/BP, as the type of mutation present may help with treatment selection going forward. This interview took place at the 1st Annual MPN Workshop of the Carolinas in Asheville, NC.
