SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions | Diagnosis, Outcomes, and Management of Prefibrotic Myelofibrosis.
Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia 2024 January 22
Prefibrotic primary myelofibrosis (prefibrotic PMF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm with distinct characteristics comprising histopathological and clinico-biological parameters. It is classified as a subtype of primary myelofibrosis. In clinical practice, it is essential to correctly distinguish prefibrotic PMF from essential thrombocythemia especially but also overt PMF besides other myeloid neoplasms. Risk stratification and survival outcomes for prefibrotic PMF are worse than that of ET but better than that of overt PMF. Rates of progression to overt PMF and blast phase disease are also higher for prefibrotic PMF than ET. In this review we first discuss the historical context to the evolution of prefibrotic PMF as an entity, its presenting features and diagnostic criteria. We emphasize the differences between prefibrotic PMF, ET, and overt PMF with regards to presenting features and disease outcomes including thrombohemorrhagic events and progression to fibrotic and blast phase disease. Next, we discuss the risk stratification models and contextualize these in the setting of clinical management. We share our view of personalizing treatment to address unique patient needs in the context of currently available management options. Lastly, we discuss areas of critical need in clinical research and speculate on the possibility of future disease course modifying therapies in prefibrotic PMF.
