Somatic mutation of the JAK2 gene (JAK2 p.V617F) can be detected in a variable proportion of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms. The JAK2 p.V617F mutation is observed in as much as 96% of patients with polycythemia vera and approximately 55% to 65% of those with essential thrombocythemia and primary myelofibrosis. In addition, quantitative measurement of the JAK2 p.V617F allele burden (ratio of mutant allele to total allele) has been associated with certain clinical phenotypes, such as a higher incidence of pruritus and splenomegaly and an increased risk of thrombosis in patients with PV and ET, although the exact association between allele burden and long-term outcome remains controversial, particularly in patients with myelofibrosis.
