Miyeloproliferatif Neoplazmalı Altı Hastada Rekombinant İnterferon-Beta1a Kullanımı: İlk İzlenim

Year 2025, Volume: 5 Issue: 2, 30 - 31, 29.04.2025
https://doi.org/10.56016/dahudermj.1647004

Abstract

Amaç: Pegile interferon-alfa2'den (peg-IFN-α2) geçiş yapan miyeloproliferatif neoplazm (MPN) hastalarında rekombinant interferon-beta1a'nın (rIFN-β1a) güvenliği ve etkinliği değerlendirildi.
Yöntem: Haftalık 44 mcg rIFN-β1a'ya geçen altı MPN hasta geriye dönük incelendi.
Bulgular: Tüm hastalar miyalji bildirdi. Başka hiçbir yan etki veya tedavi kesilmesi görülmedi. Üç hastada JAK2V617F alel yükünde azalma gözlendi.
Sonuç: rIFN-β1a, MPN hastalarında yönetilebilir güvenlilik göstermiştir ve potansiyel etkinliğe sahiptir. Daha büyük çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Recombinant Interferon-Beta1a Use in Six Patients with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: A First Impression

Year 2025, Volume: 5 Issue: 2, 30 - 31, 29.04.2025

Abstract

Objective: Assess the safety and efficacy of recombinant interferon-beta1a (rIFN-β1a) in myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) patients transitioning from pegylated interferon-alpha2 (peg-IFN-α2).
Method: Retrospective review of six MPN patients switching to rIFN-β1a (44 mcg weekly).
Results: All patients reported myalgia. No other adverse events or treatment discontinuations. Reduced JAK2V617F allele burden in three patients.
Conclusion: rIFN-β1a demonstrated manageable safety in MPN patients, with potential efficacy. Larger studies are needed.
