Rishabh Jain: MPNs May Finally Be Moving from Disease Control to Clonal Eradication
Rishabh Jain, Medical Oncologist at AIIMS Delhi, shared a post on X about a recent article by Isabelle Plo and William Vainchenker, published in NEJM, adding:
“MPNs may finally be moving from disease control to clonal eradication.
A new NEJM review highlights the biology reshaping treatment of ET, PV and myelofibrosis:
- More than 90% driven by JAK2, CALR or MPL mutations
- Driver mutations can arise decades before clinical disease
- Inflammation fuels clonal dominance, fibrosis and thrombosis
- Current therapy mainly controls counts, symptoms and thrombosis
- Next frontier: mutation-selective therapy
Most exciting:
- INCA033989, anti-mutant CALR antibody: hematologic and molecular responses in more than 90% of refractory or intolerant CALR-mutant ET in early data
- CALR×CD3 bispecifics and selective JAK2 V617F inhibitors are entering clinical development.
This could mark the shift from managing MPNs to eliminating the malignant clone.”
