Abstract excerpt
Essential thrombocythemia (ET) is a Ph(-) myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by elevated platelet counts. Patients most often have one of the three following driver mutations: JAK2, MPL, or CALR. However, these mutations are not detected in approximately 10-15% of patients, who are thus referred to as "triple-negative" (TN). Background/Objectives: In recent years, there have been breakthroughs in the...
