Overall Response: Patient must meet hematocrit, WBC, platelet, and spleen response criteria in PV cohort; must meet WBC, platelet, and spleen response in ET cohort at some point during the treatment period. These criteria do not have to be met for the same 4 weeks.

Hematocrit response: Hematocrit < 45% in the absence of phlebotomy that lasts ≥ 4 weeks (applicable to PV cohort only).

Platelet response: Platelet count ≤ 400 × 109/L that lasts ≥ 4 weeks.

WBC response: WBC < 10 × 109/L that lasts ≥ 4 weeks.

Spleen response: Resolution or 50% reduction of palpable splenomegaly postbaseline.

MPN-SAF TSS response: Proportion of patients with ≥ 10-point decrease from baseline in modified MPN-SAF TSS that lasted ≥ 12 weeks.

a

Patients with baseline spleen size ≥ 5 cm are evaluated for spleen response and serve as denominator for spleen response rate calculation.

b

Not significant by Wilcoxon test.
