Impact of genomic alterations on outcomes in myelofibrosis patients undergoing JAK1/2 inhibitor therapy.

ABSTRACT: In myelofibrosis (MF), driver mutations in JAK2, MPL, or CALR impact survival and progression to blast phase, with the greatest risk conferred by triple-negative status. Subclonal mutations, including mutations in high-molecular risk (HMR) genes, such as ASXL1, EZH2, IDH1/2, and SRSF2 have also been associated with inferior prognosis. However, data evaluating the impact of next-generation sequencing in MF patients treated with JAK1/2 inhibitors are lacking. Using a 54-gene myeloid panel, we performed targeted sequencing on 100 MF patients treated with ruxolitinib (n = 77) or momelotinib (n = 23) and correlated mutational profiles with treatment outcomes. Ninety-nine patients had at least 1 mutation identified, 46 (46%) had 2 mutations, and 34 (34%) patients had
