ASH 2021 | Selinexor in myelofibrosis treatment

Selinexor inhibits karyopherin protein exportin 1 (XPO1) activity and is currently approved for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and multiple myeloma. Michael Deininger, MD, PhD, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT, provides an overview of the rationale behind using selinexor in treating myelofibrosis. Currently, there are limited treatment options for myelofibrosis, especially in patients resistant to Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. Preliminary studies have indicated clinical efficacy and safety in patients with myelofibrosis. This interview took place at the 63rd ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition congress in Atlanta, GA.
