Targeted molecular characterization shows differences between primary and secondary myelofibrosis
24 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: In BCR-ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms, myelofibrosis (MF) is either primary (PMF) or secondary (SMF) to polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia. MF is characterized by an increased risk of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and a shortened life expectancy. METHODS: Because natural histories of PMF and SMF are different, we studied by targeted next generation sequencing...
