Placebo

Regimen
| Study | Evidence | Comparator | Efficacy |
| Verstovsek et al. 2012 (COMFORT-I) | Phase III | Ruxolitinib | Might have inferior OS |
| Pardanani et al. 2015 | Phase III | Fedratinib | Inferior RR |
| Tefferi et al. 2016 (RESUME) | Phase III | Pomalidomide | Seems not superior |
No active treatment; included here because it was used as a comparator in one or more randomized controlled trials. Note that although fedratinib had superior efficacy to placebo per Pardanani et al. 2015, it had unacceptable toxicity and is no longer under active development.
