Lucia Masarova, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, comments on the approval of ropeginterferon for essential thrombocythemia (ET), highlighting its broad label for use in patients with ET who need therapy, including frontline or second-line options. Dr Masarova advises clinicians to consider ropeginterferon for patients who have failed frontline therapies and for young patients or those seeking more than just count control. This interview took place at the 4th International Workshop on Myelodysplastic Syndromes & Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (iwMDS/iwMPN) 2026, held in Washington, D.C.
