Myelofibrosis (MF) is the most symptomatic form of myeloproliferative neoplasm and carries the worst outcome. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only therapy with potential for cure at present, but is limited by significant mortality and morbidity. JAK inhibition is the mainstay of treatment for intermediate- and high-risk MF. Ruxolitinib is the most widely used JAK1/2 inhibitor and provides durable effects in controlling symptom burden and spleen volumes. Nevertheless, ruxolitinib may not adequately address the underlying disease biology. Its effects on mutant allele burden, bone marrow fibrosis, and the prevention of leukemic transformation are minimal. Multiple small molecules are being tested in multiple phase 2 and 3 studies as either monotherapy or in combination with JAK2 inhibitors. In this review, the role of LSD1/KDM1A inhibition as a potential disease-modification strategy in patients with myelofibrosis is described and discussed.
