Study Summary

This research is being done to see if the drug ruxolitinib is effective in reducing the symptoms caused by low-risk essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV). \- This research study involves the study drug Ruxolitinib.

Primary Outcome

Percentage of patients with \>50% change in Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Total Symptom Score (MPN-SAF TSS), which has use in major clinical trials and as symptom assessment in all patients in clinical practice. Modeling has established baseline MPN-SAF TSS cut-off scores (total MPN-SAF TSS \>20 or an individual component score \>5) at which symptomatic treatment would be significantly beneficial
