First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tests whether the drug ropeginterferon is safe and feasible for 12 people with a JAK2 mutation and high-risk features who do not yet have a blood cancer. Participants receive an injection every 4 weeks and are monitored closely. The goal is to see if this approach can prevent progression to myeloproliferative neoplasms.
