MPN Workshop of the Carolinas 2024 | Survival outcomes of patients with MPN-AP/BP treated with current therapies

Anand Patel, MD, University of Chicago Medical Center, Chicago, IL, discusses the outcomes and conclusions from a multicenter analysis of patients diagnosed with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in the accelerated or blast-phase (MPN-AP/BP). The study found a median overall survival (OS) of less than a year, with no significant difference among the three most common frontline treatment regimens. However, Dr Anand notes that OS was increased to 2.3 years after receiving an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (alloSCT), suggesting that the goal for eligible patients with MPN-AP/BP is to control the disease prior to undergoing alloSCT to ensure durable survival. This interview took place at the 1st Annual MPN Workshop of the Carolinas in Asheville, NC.
