Change in Polistemia Vera Treatment: Ropeginterferon Alfa-2b in Light of Current Trials.

Ropeginterferon alfa-2b (RopegIFN) enables effective cytoreduction in polycythemia vera (PV). Recent analyses suggest that long-term RopegIFN therapy fulfills treatment goals important to patients with PV including good quality of life, the slowing of disease progression, and long event-free survival. Data support the use of RopegIFN in both early PV therapy and second-line and beyond.
