Overview

NCI Definition: Progression of polycythemia vera characterized by decreased erythropoiesis and granulopoiesis, reticulin and collagen fibrosis of the bone marrow, leucoerythroblastic reaction in the peripheral blood, poikilocytosis, tear-drop shaped red blood cells, and splenomegaly. [1]

Polycythemia vera, post-polycythemic myelofibrosis phases most frequently harbor alterations in JAK2, TET2, EZH2, ASXL1, and SETD1B [2].

Most Commonly Altered Genes in Polycythemia Vera, Post-Polycythemic Myelofibrosis Phase

JAK2 V617F, JAK2 Mutation, JAK2 Exon 14 Mutation, TET2 Mutation, and TET2fs are the most common alterations in polycythemia vera, post-polycythemic myelofibrosis phase [2].
