    • Appraise available research findings informing the safety and efficacy of approved JAK inhibitors for patients with MF.
    • Review available research data with and the current clinical role of next-generation JAK inhibitors for patients with MF and severe thrombocytopenia.
    • Evaluate published research findings with the use of JAK inhibitors for patients with MF and anemia to optimize decision-making for this population.
    • Assess available research findings with novel therapies and combination regimens incorporating JAK inhibitors, and consider the potential clinical application of these approaches.
    • Increase participation in active research protocols by counseling appropriately selected patients regarding the biological rationale for and available efficacy and safety data with novel investigational agents and strategies for MF.
