Summary The research article discusses myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It focuses on the Calreticulin (CALR) mutation found in 20% to 25% of MPN patients (with ET and MF) and, which is a potential target for new drug therapies. The authors describe a novel approach using […]

Paving the way to improve therapy for MPNs
Megan Bywater & Steven W. Lane, Nature Communications volume 13, Article number: 5025, Published: August 26, 2022 Long-acting IFNα induces durable molecular responses in myeloproliferative neoplasms. Emerging studies, including Saleiro et al. recently published in Nature Communications, have identified promising candidates that may synergize with IFNα by targeting stem cell function or feedback loops that mediate […]

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 […]
