Impact of allo-HSCT on survival outcomes in accelerated/blast-phase MPN

Jul 9, 2024

Learning objective: After reading this article, learners will be able to cite a new clinical development in blast-phase MPN.


A multicenter analysis that evaluated the survival outcomes associated with first-line treatment, response, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with accelerated/blast-phase myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN-AP/BP) has been published in Blood Advances by Patel et al.1  


Key learnings1

Across 9 academic centers, the three most common first-line treatments for adult patients with MPN-AP/BP were intensive chemotherapy (IC), DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (DNMTi)-based regimens, and DNMTi combined with venetoclax (VEN). 

The median overall survival (OS) for patients with MPN-AP/BP was 0.86 years, regardless of first-line treatment. 

The median OS for patients who underwent allo-HSCT was 2.3 years from the time of transplant. 

These data highlight an unmet need in treating MPN-AP/BP, suggesting that current therapies provide limited survival benefits in the absence of allo-HSCT.  

There is a need for further research and development of more effective treatments for patients who are ineligible for or unable to receive allo-HSCT.
