A Study to Establish a Research Tissue Bank for Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to credential novel therapeutic approaches which can then be transitioned to the clinic for near-term mechanism based clinical trials in this research consortium. There is a need for new treatments for myelofibrosis (MF) patients based on laboratory insight into disease pathogenesis. We will use primary patient samples to understand how different genetic mutations contribute to MF development and to test novel treatment approaches.
