Tissue Banking Study - Polycythemia Vera or Essential Thrombocythemia (PV & ET) Patients

January 17, 2018 updated by: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai

Treatment Strategies for Myeloproliferative Neoplasms by Targeting the Tumor Suppressor P53

The purpose of the study is to isolate and characterize stem cells of patients with Polycythemia Vera (PV) and Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) to find out why these cells are not working the way they should be and why they seem to be sensitive to regulatory factors in the blood, such as clotting.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Stem cell function
Time Frame: at one time study visit
Assess the effects of RG7112 on MPN HSC/HPC p53 levels and study how it affects MPN stem cell function.
at one time study visit

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
CD34+ cells assays
Time Frame: at one time study visit
Assess the effects of a combination of low doses of IFNα and RG7112 on MPN HSC/HPC. After treatment with RG7112 and IFNα at the various doses, p53, MDM2, MDMX, phosphor-p38, and phosphor-STAT1 levels in MPN CD34+ cells will be measured using monoclonal antibody staining and flow cytometric and immunofluorescence analyses.
