Hussein Tawbi, MD, PhD, explains that for BRAF-mutated metastatic melanoma, treatment options include checkpoint inhibitors, single-agent and combination IO therapies, and BRAF and MEK inhibitor combinations, offering varying response rates and progression-free survival periods.

Dr Anthony Hunter explains that the decision to initiate therapy in patients with myelofibrosis is individualized, considering factors like symptoms and risk stratification; early treatment with JAK inhibitors is crucial for symptom control, but allogeneic stem cell transplant remains the only potential curative therapy, particularly for higher-risk patients.

Dr Abdulraheem Yacoub discusses experience with the JAK inhibitor momelotinib in patients with myelofibrosis, noting robust efficacy in clinical trials for spleen volume reduction, symptom improvement, and anemia benefit, but explains that its utility in first-line versus second-line settings is still being determined.

Abdulraheem Yacoub, MD, reviews the current myelofibrosis treatment landscape including the four approved JAK inhibitors - ruxolitinib, fedratinib, pacritinib, and momelotinib - discussing the clinical trial data and indications for each in first-line and second-line settings.
