1Reported efficacy for COMFORT-I is based on the 2017 update.
2Reported efficacy for COMFORT-II is based on the 2016 update.
Note: Patients in COMFORT-II who received "best available therapy" (BAT) generally received no active treatment (33%), Hydroxyurea (Hydrea) (47%), or glucocorticoids (16%). Patients in SIMPLIFY-2 had been previously treated with ruxolitinib but were allowed to receive ruxolitinib as BAT. This was the most commonly used BAT in PERSIST-2.
