Essential Thrombocythemia (ET)Myelofibrosis (MF)Polycythemia Vera (PV)
Study summary
In this study the aim is to investigate the pathogenetic role of extracellular vesicles and senescence in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms. In particular, the goal of this project is to identify possible EV-based biomarkers of senescence according to gender, which are disease-specific, biology-related, and predictive of short-term outcome in terms of Event-Free Survival and to define personalized targets for new therapeutic approaches.
