    Journal:  Novel treatments to tackle myelofibrosis. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 28, 2019   
    Despite the dramatic progress made in the treatment of patients with myelofibrosis since the introduction of the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib, a therapeutic option that can modify the natural history of the disease and prevent evolution to blast-phase is still lacking...Expert commentary: The most mature advances in treatment of myelofibrosis are the development of second-generation JAK1/2 inhibitors and improvements in expanding access to donors for transplantation. In addition, there are efforts to identify drugs that target pathways other than JAK/STAT signaling that might improve the survival of myelofibrosis patients, and limit the need for stem-cell transplantation.

    Review, Journal:  Oligonucleotides Targeting Telomeres and Telomerase in Cancer. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 13, 2018   
    Specifically, GRN163L and T-oligos have demonstrated promising anticancer activity in multiple cancers types via induction of potent DNA damage responses...This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of current oligonucleotide-based anticancer therapies that target telomeres and telomerase. These studies may help design novel therapeutic approaches to overcome the challenges of oligonucleotide therapy in a clinical setting.

    In polycythemia vera, a novel interferon administered every 2 weeks is being developed for front-line therapy in high-risk individuals, and inhibitors of human double minute 2 (HDM2) have shown promise in preclinical studies, as have HDAC inhibitors such as givinostat (both in the laboratory and in the clinic). Ruxolitinib is approved for second-line therapy of polycythemia vera and is being developed for essential thrombocythemia.

    Biomarker, Journal:  Epigenetic landscape of the TERT promoter: a potential biomarker for high risk AML/MDS. (Pubmed Central) -  May 18, 2017   
    The activity of the telomerase inhibitor, imetelstat, was measured using leukaemia cell lines...AML cell lines and primary blasts harbour distinct TERTpro/Ex1 methylation profiles that could serve as a prognostic biomarker of AML. However, validation in a large cohort of patients is necessary to confirm our findings.
