20 Conclusions Evolution to leukemia could be the first cause of deaths in the long term in properly managed MPN patients Evolution to leukemia is part of the natural history of MPN, but this risk can clearly be enhanced by medicines like alkylating agents Pipobroman is clearly leukemogenic and should not be used as first line therapy Conclusions Hydroxyurea has never been shown to increase the risk of leukemic evolution The higher than previously reported incidence of evolution to leukemia in HU treated PV patients we found in the randomized trial could be due to natural disease evolution not altered by HU therapy However, clearly non leukemogenic drugs should be favored to treat patients <60 years 20
