Abstract
Progression of Philadelphia-chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) to the accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) is associated with poor outcomes. As our understanding of the molecular drivers of MPN progression has grown, there has been increasing investigation into the use of novel targeted approaches in the treatment of these diseases. In this review we summarize the clinical and molecular risk factors for progression to MPN-AP/BP followed by discussion of treatment approach. We also highlight outcomes using conventional approaches such as intensive chemotherapy and hypomethylating agents along with considerations around allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. We then focus on novel targeted approaches in MPN-AP/BP including venetoclax-based regimens, IDH inhibition, and ongoing prospective clinical trials.
