Secondary Cancers in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN-K Study)

Summary

The incidence of secondary cancer (SC) in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) is high and comparable to that of thrombosis. However, the identification of patient subgroups that might be at increased susceptibility of developing SC has not been systematically addressed. This international case-control study (MPN-K) is aimed to elucidate the prognostic role of JAK2V617F mutation in predicting the occurrence of SC in patients with classical MPN, polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET) and myelofibrosis (MF)

Conditions

OTHER

JAK2V617F mutation

JAK2 V617F is attached to the cytosolic juxtamembrane region of dimeric cytokine receptors, such as EpoR or MPL (TpoR); The JAK2V617F mutation results from a guanine to thymine change at nucleotide 1849 of the cDNA, in exon 14 of the gene. This valine is located at one of the predicted interfaces between JH1 and JH2 domains,
