20th International Congress on Myeloproliferative Neoplasms - MPN Research Foundation Coverage
Key claim: The 20th International MPN Congress highlighted advances in PV prognostication (including leukocytosis significance and a machine learning-derived dynamic thrombosis risk score), hereditary erythrocytosis diagnosis, MPN stem cell biology, transplantation decision tools, and NGS-based prognostication.
Abstract
The signature MPN Congress, chaired by Dr. Dick Silver and Dr. Jerry Spivak, covered pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of MPNs. Highlights included prognostic significance of leukocytosis in PV, diagnosis of hereditary erythrocytosis, MPN stem cell fitness, transplantation decision tools, and NGS in prognostication. A best poster awarded for a machine learning-derived dynamic scoring system predicting thrombosis risk in PV patients.
