About this study

The dosage and duration of treatment may be considered and decided by the investigator in accordance with prescribing information of Jakavi®. All participants who receive at least one dose of the drug and are in the follow-up assessment or early discontinuation (withdrawal) will be the safety population. This study will enroll patients who are newly starting Jakavi® and patients who have been taking Jakavi® prior to study participation. Considering the current clinical practice, a 24 weeks follow-up period of ruxolitinib treatment is needed to assess the safety and the durable effectiveness of the treatment. Mandatory additional safety monitoring will be conducted following the last dose of the treatment for further AE assessments.
