Treatment Options for Myelofibrosis
There is currently no cure for myelofibrosis, but there are several treatment options available to help manage the symptoms and improve the quality of life for patients. These may include drug therapy to help reduce an enlarged spleen and manage symptoms. In some cases, a bone marrow transplant may be recommended for younger, healthy patients.
Additionally, blood transfusions and other supportive care measures can help alleviate anemia and other complications of myelofibrosis. By harnessing the power of the immune system, newer treatments aim to target and destroy abnormal cells, offering a new avenue of hope for patients with this challenging condition.
