Dear MPN Voice community, We are inviting people living with Polycythaemia Vera (PV), Essential Thrombocythaemia (ET), or Myelofibrosis (MF) who have received treatment with interferons (Pegasys or BESREMi) to take part in a short, anonymous survey. This important study aims to gather patient experiences during the recent international interferon shortages. The findings will help inform clinical care and improve access to treatment for people with MPNs both in the UK and internationally. 👉 The survey takes around 10–15 minutes to complete. Please only complete it once. Take part now by clicking the hyperlink here or scanning the QR code. redcap.link/interferon Thank you for helping us improve care for the MPN community worldwide. #myeloproliferativeneoplasm #bloodcancerawarenessmonth #chronicillness #mpnsm

CONGRESS #ASH24 | PRESENTATION John Mascarenhas, @IcahnMountSinai discussed results from the phase III BOREAS study. Navtemadlin treatment improved biomarkers of disease burden in pts with R/R MF, including changes in CD34+ counts, driver mutation burden, and serum inflammatory cytokine levels. The POIESIS study will further investigate navtamadelin in pts with subotimal response to rux. Follow our live feed for more updates: mpn-hub.com/medical-informat… #MPN #MPNsm

Big news today for the #leukemia community, especially for our patients in need! #Revumenib was approved today by @US_FDA. This is the first-in-class menin inhibitor in #AML. Ongoing studies point to efficacy against the more common NPM1 mutation as well, and also in combination with low-intensity therapy for newly-diagnosed AML. I expect this is the first of several approvals/expansions to come for this and/or other menin-targeting drugs. "FDA approves revumenib for relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation" fda.gov/drugs/resources-info… #leusm #bmtsm @DukeHMCT @DukeCancer
