Comparison of DIPSS and MYSEC-PM for prediction of outcome in post-PV and ET myelofibrosis after allogeneic stem-cell transplantation

In the last decade, three clinical-derived prognostic models have been developed in patients with primary myelofibrosis [1 –3]. Prognostication in myeloproliferative neoplasms, however, is moving towards integrated clinical-molecular models [4,5]. Therefore, more recently, another prognostic system has been developed and validated by the MYSEC project (MYelofibrosis SECondary to PV and ET) specifically for myelofibros is evolved from polycythemia vera (post-PV MF) and essential thrombocythemia (post-ET MF) [6,7].
