MPN Workshop of the Carolinas 2024 | Current barriers to early intervention in myelofibrosis

Abdulraheem Yacoub, MD, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS, outlines some barriers to early intervention in patients with myelofibrosis (MF). The development of prognostic tools is needed to accurately predict which patients presenting with early MF are at risk of rapidly progressive disease and would benefit from early intervention. It is also not yet clear which of the agents approved in advanced MF will be appropriate to use in patients with early disease, and Dr Yacoub expresses his excitement at studies that are being designed to investigate this. This interview took place at the 1st Annual MPN Workshop of the Carolinas in Asheville, NC.
