Hematology Laboratory Values
*Patients are included at their worst on study grade regardless of whether this represents a
change from their baseline
-Grade 3 and 4 anemia and thrombocytopenia were more common in those with
higher baseline grade
-Discontinuation of treatment because of anemia and thrombocytopenia was rare
(1 patient in each treatment group for each event

Percentage of JAK2V617F mutant allele can
be quantitatively measured (available at
OHSU), but clinical relevance is unknown
Low JAK2V617F allele burden in PMF
has negative impact

survival within the timeframe of the study endpoint. Patients who remain in COMFORT-I continue to be

Ruxolitinib Dosing
For plts 50-100 X 109/L: OHSU currently
enrolling for clinical trial of ruxolitinib in
thrombocytopenic patients with MF
Jakafi prescribing information packet
Dose adjustment for thrombocytopenia
Hold Drug for platelets <50 X 109/L
Jakafi prescribing information packet
Drug Interactions:
Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors will increase levels of ruxolitinib, with
strong CYP3A4 inhibitors dose reduction is recommended.
Patients should be closely monitored and dose titrated based on
safety and efficacy.
No dose adjustment is recommended when Jakafi is
coadministered with a CYP3A4 inducer.
Patients should be closely monitored and the dose titrated
based on safety and efficacy

Lenalidomide for MF
• Mayo Clinic - Blood. 2006 Aug 15;108(4):1158-64.
– 68 patients; lenalidomide at 10 mg/d (5 mg/d if baseline platelet
count < 100 x 10(9)/L) for 3 to 4 months with a plan to continue
treatment for either 3 or 24 additional months, in case of
response. Overall response rates were 22% for anemia, 33%
for splenomegaly, and 50% for thrombocytopenia.
• MD Anderson - J Clin Oncol. 2009 Oct 1;27(28):4760-6.
– 40 patients; lenalidomide 10 mg/d (5 mg/d if baseline platelet
count < 100 x 10(9)/L) on days 1 through 21 of a 28-day cycle
for six cycles with prednisone taper. ORR 30% for anemia and
42% splenomegaly by IWG-MRT criteria.
• ECOG Phase 2 (E4903) - Blood. 2010 Nov 25;116(22):44368.
– 48 patients; lenalidomide 10mg daily + prednisone taper;
anemia improved in 19% and splenomegaly in 10% by IWGMRT criteria.
Pomalidomide +/- prednisone in
treatment of anemia in MF
Tefferi et al, JCO 2009
Phase II trial of pomalidomide alone in MF
• Low dose pomalidomide alone (0.5mg/d) in 58 MF
patients with anemia
• Response limited to JAK2V617F mutated patients
• 24% of V617F+ patients responded in terms of
anemia and 9/10 became transfusion independent
• Response predicted by basophilia in first month of
treatment
• 58% of patients with plts ≤ 100K experienced >50
% increase in plt count

PMF
Silver et al, Blood 2011
Peg-IFN-alpha2a for PV/ET
• Kiladjian et al Blood 2008;112:3065:
– 37 patients; 95% had hematologic CR; only 3 stopped tx at 12
months. Decreased JAK2V617F allele burden in 90%.
Molecular CR in 7 patients. 90-180 mcg weekly.
• Quintas-Cardama et al JCO 2009;27:5418:
– 40 PV/39 ET; one prior cytoreductive treatment; 70%/76%
hematologic CR; 14%/6% molecular CR. Only 10% of patients
discontinued due to toxicity; no grade 4 toxicities; grade 3 were
not frequent but included pain, fatigue, dyspnea, and pruritis.
Tolerability of PEG-IFN-alpha-2a at 90 mcg weekly was
excellent.
• Phase III trials comparing Hydroxyurea vs. Pegasys are underway
(upfront high risk PV or ET; HU-resistant or refractory).

response in PV/ET
Start at 90µg/week, with goal of 135µg/week
