Momelotinib: emerging treatment for myelofibrosis patients with anemia
Abstract The suite of marked anemia benefits that momelotinib has consistently conferred on myelofibrosis (MF) patients stem from its unique inhibitory activity on the BMP6/ACVR1/SMAD and IL-6/JAK/STAT3 pathways, resulting in decreased hepcidin (master iron regulator) expression, higher serum iron and hemoglobin levels, and restored erythropoiesis. Clinical data on momelotinib from the phase 2 and the […]
Pevonedistat targets malignant cells in myeloproliferative neoplasms
Key Points Pevonedistat targets the NFκB pathway to inhibit growth of MPN and sAML cells. Pevonedistat reduces disease burden in MPN mouse models. Pevonedistat targets malignant cells in myeloproliferative neoplasms in vitro and in vivo via NFκB pathway inhibition Abstract Targeted inhibitors of JAK2 (eg ruxolitinib) often provide symptomatic relief for myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) patients, but the malignant clone […]

New Horizons in MPN Treatment, A Review of Therapeutic Options
Abstract Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are aggressive diseases characterized by clonal proliferation of myeloid stem cells. The clonal process leads to excessive red cells production, platelets production, and bone marrow fibrosis. According to the phenotype, MPN can be classified as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). MPN patients have shortened survival […]
