ET and PV � ET and PV, with MF, represent the 3 ‘classic’ BCR-ABL-negative MPNs – ET is characterized by megakaryocyte hyperplasia and persistent thrombocytosis; PV by clonal proliferation of erythroid, myeloid, and megakaryocyte cell lineages – Both are associated with increased risk of thrombosis and progression to MF or AML � Normalization of platelet counts in ET and Hct % in PV are primary treatment goals – Rx also needed for symptomatic splenomegaly and debilitating symptoms that arise with disease progression � Therapeutic options are limited for ET and PV patients refractory or intolerant to hydroxyurea (HU) � INCB 18424 treatment in MF, Post PV-MF, and Post ET-MF has been well tolerated and associated with reductions in spleen size and symptom relief 2
