Summary

This study looked at whether giving a JAK inhibitor drug before a donor stem cell transplant helps people with myelofibrosis, a serious bone marrow disorder. 61 patients received the drug ruxolitinib before their transplant. The goal was to improve survival and reduce complications like graft-versus-host disease. The study measured how many patients survived for 2 years after the transplant.
