This Myelofibrosis - Epidemiology Forecast-2032 report delivers an in-depth understanding of the disease, historical and forecasted epidemiology in the United States, the EU-5 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, and United Kingdom), and Japan.
Myelofibrosis usually develops slowly, and it often does not cause early symptoms and may be found during a routine blood test. When fibrosis develops in the bone marrow, the bone marrow is unable to produce enough normal blood cells. The lack of blood cells causes many signs and symptoms of myelofibrosis. Several specific gene mutations have been identified in people with myelofibrosis. The most common is the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene mutation, and other less common mutations include CALR and MPL. Some people with myelofibrosis do not have any identifiable gene mutations.
Prominent clinical features in myelofibrosis include anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, and constitutional symptoms including fatigue, night sweats, low-grade fever, and progressive cachexia with loss of muscle mass, bone pain, splenic infarct, pruritus, nonhepatosplenic EMH, thrombosis, and bleeding.

Myelofibrosis Understanding
Myelofibrosis Overview
Myelofibrosis is a rare type of blood cancer characterized by the buildup of scar tissue, called “fibrosis,” in the bone marrow. The bone marrow cannot make enough healthy blood cells due to increased scar tissue. It is one of the related groups of blood cancers known as “myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs)” in which blood cells produced by bone marrow cells develop and function abnormally. When myelofibrosis develops on its own (and not as the result of another bone marrow disease), it is called primary myelofibrosis. In other cases, another type of MPN, such as polycythemia vera (PV) or essential thrombocythemia (ET), can transform into MF. In these cases, it is known as secondary MF, which may also be referred to as a post-PV MF or post-ET MF.Myelofibrosis usually develops slowly, and it often does not cause early symptoms and may be found during a routine blood test.

Myelofibrosis Diagnosis
Myelofibrosis can be diagnosed by using a series of tests such as blood tests, bone marrow tests, molecular testing, and mutation-enhanced morphologic diagnosis. In order to confirm the diagnosis, the doctor tests the bone marrow. Bone marrow testing involves two steps usually performed at the same time in a doctor's office or a hospital: a bone marrow aspiration removes a liquid marrow sample, and a bone marrow biopsy removes a small amount of bone filled with marrow. Molecular tests are used for diagnosis and treatment planning look for abnormal changes in the genes, chromosomes, proteins, or other molecules within the patient's cancer cells.Epidemiology Perspective
The Myelofibrosis epidemiology division provides insights about the historical and current Myelofibrosis patient pool and forecasted trends for seven major countries. It helps to recognize the causes of current and forecasted trends by exploring numerous studies and views of key opinion leaders. This part of The report also provides the diagnosed patient pool and their trends along with assumptions undertaken.Key Findings
The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted Myelofibrosis epidemiology [segmented as total prevalent cases, total diagnosed prevalent cases, type-specific cases, based on risk stratification, age-specific cases, based on molecular alterations, treatment eligible pool of myelofibrosis, and transplant eligible/ineligible pool of myelofibrosis] in the 7MM covering the United States, EU-5 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) and Japan from 2019 to 2032.Country Wise- Myelofibrosis Epidemiology
- The total prevalent population of myelofibrosis in the 7MM comprised of 39,735 cases in 2021 and is projected to increase during the study period (2019-2032).
- In the United States, the total number of prevalent cases of Myelofibrosis were 19,815 cases in the year 2021 which are expected to grow during the study period, i.e., 2019-2032.
- Among the EU-5 countries, Germany accounted for the highest number of myelofibrosis diagnosed prevalent cases, followed by the UK, whereas Spain accounted for the lowest cases in 2021.
- The total diagnosed prevalent cases of myelofibrosis in the Japan is 5,391 in 2021 and is projected to increase during the forecast period.
- In the US, based on risk, myelofibrosis cases are stratified in the low risk, intermediate-1 risk, intermediate-2, and high-risk. The high-risk accounted for the highest number of patients in 2021 in the US.
- Myelofibrosis can be further categorized into primary myelofibrosis and secondary myelofibrosis. In 2021, primary myelofibrosis accounted for 75% of all cases in the US.
- In the US, based on age, myelofibrosis cases are stratified in the age group ≤ 40 years, 41−60 years, and > 60 years. The >60 years accounted for the highest number of patients i.e. 10,275 in 2021 in the US.
- In 2021, treatment eligible pool of myelofibrosis accounted for 9,511 cases in the United States.
- The epidemiology model of myelofibrosis suggests that there are two broad classification based on the molecular enhancement in myelofibrosis, one that includes patients who driver harbor mutations which suggests that highest mutation is observed in JAK2 mutations followed by CALR mutation and MLR mutation. Second category includes patients with triple negative mutations. In the US, JAK2 mutations account for approximately 60% of cases.
- In 2021, transplant ineligible pool of myelofibrosis accounted for 8,980 cases in the United States.
