-
In October 2026, findings from the randomized RuxoBEAT clinical trial (NCT02577926) were published in Blood Cancer Journal. The study evaluated ruxolitinib against best available therapy as a first-line treatment for polycythemia vera. Although the primary endpoint of improved complete clinico-hematologic response was not achieved, ruxolitinib demonstrated improvements in hematocrit, splenomegaly, pruritus, and fatigue. No new safety signals were identified.
-
In October 2026, results from the Phase III VERIFY trial of rusfertide were published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. The study demonstrated that rusfertide significantly improved hematocrit control and reduced phlebotomy requirements in patients with polycythemia vera. Approximately 77% of patients receiving rusfertide achieved a clinical response compared with 33% in the placebo group. The treatment also improved fatigue and overall symptom burden.
-
In September 2026, Disc Medicine announced initial positive results from its Phase II RESTORE-PV trial evaluating DISC-3405 in patients with polycythemia vera. The investigational TMPRSS6-targeting monoclonal antibody increased hepcidin levels and reduced serum iron, resulting in improved hematocrit control, fewer phlebotomy requirements, and reduced symptom burden. The findings were presented at the 14th Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) Annual Meeting.
-
In August 2026, the US FDA approved Mimrylo (rusfertide), developed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals, for adults with polycythemia vera. Rusfertide is a first-in-class hepcidin mimetic that regulates iron availability to reduce excessive red blood cell production. Its approval was supported by the Phase III VERIFY trial, in which 76.9% of patients receiving rusfertide achieved a clinical response without requiring phlebotomy during weeks 20–32, compared with 32.9% receiving placebo.
-
In August 2026, Takeda announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved MIMRYLO™ (rusfertide) for the treatment of erythrocytosis in adults with polycythemia vera (PV), a rare blood cancer. MIMRYLO is a first-in-class hepcidin mimetic designed to regulate iron distribution and reduce excessive red blood cell production, thereby helping control hematocrit levels. Maintaining hematocrit below 45% is a key treatment objective for patients with PV, and the approval introduces a novel therapeutic approach for managing erythrocytosis associated with the disease.
-
In March 2026, A Phase 2 trial evaluating oral epetraborole in polycythemia vera (PV) is anticipated to commence in the third quarter of 2026, with initial data readouts expected as early as the fourth quarter of 2026 and continuing into 2027.
-
In January 2026, A New Drug Application (NDA) has been filed with the FDA requesting approval of rusfertide for the treatment of adults with polycythemia vera (PV). The submission is supported by results from the Phase III VERIFY trial (NCT05210790) and the Phase II REVIVE trial (NCT04057040). Findings from Part 1a of the VERIFY study indicated that rusfertide, a first-in-class hepcidin mimetic, achieved the primary endpoint along with all four key secondary endpoints, demonstrating sustained hematocrit control and significantly reducing the need for phlebotomy.
-
In November 2025, SOTIO Biotech, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company under the PPF Group, announced encouraging preclinical findings for its antibody-drug conjugate SOT106 for sarcoma treatment, presented at the Connective Tissue Oncology Society (CTOS) Annual Meeting in November.
-
In August 2025, The FDA has awarded Breakthrough Therapy Designation to rusfertide, a first-in-class hepcidin-mimetic peptide, for treating erythrocytosis in polycythemia vera (PV) patients with limited therapeutic options to reduce phlebotomy needs and improve blood count control. This designation was based on promising results from the Phase 3 VERIFY trial (NCT05210790), which compared rusfertide plus standard of care (SOC) against placebo plus SOC. In the 32-week analysis presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting, 76.9% of patients on rusfertide plus SOC (n=147) achieved a response between weeks 20 and 32, compared with 32.9% of those on placebo plus SOC (n=146; P < .0001).
-
In August 2025, Vanda Pharmaceuticals revealed that the FDA has awarded Orphan Drug Designation to VGT-1849B, a JAK2 inhibitor, for the treatment of polycythemia vera (PV).
-
In August 2025, Protagonist Therapeutics’ rusfertide has been granted FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of erythrocytosis in polycythemia vera, backed by encouraging Phase 3 VERIFY trial results presented at ASCO 2025.
-
In May 2025, The FDA granted Fast Track designation to givinostat (Duvyzat) for the treatment of polycythemia vera, according to a press release from its developer, Italfarmaco. Previously, givinostat received orphan drug designation for the same indication from both the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Additionally, the drug has been approved by the FDA and the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
-
In March 2025, Protagonist Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTGX) and Takeda (TSE: 4502/NYSE: TAK) have announced positive topline results from the Phase 3 VERIFY study. The trial involved phlebotomy-dependent polycythemia vera (PV) patients, who were randomly assigned to receive either rusfertide or a placebo alongside standard care. The study successfully achieved its primary endpoint along with all four key secondary endpoints. Rusfertide, an investigational first-in-class hepcidin mimetic peptide therapeutic, has been granted Orphan Drug and Fast Track designations by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Polycythemia Vera Overview
Polycythemia vera (PV) is a rare blood disorder characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells in the bone marrow. This overproduction leads to thickening of the blood, which can slow its flow and increase the risk of clotting.
