MyelOproliferative neoplasmS: An In-depth Case-Control (MOSAICC) study: A case-control study of patients with Myeloproliferative neoplasms and non-blood relative/friend controls.

Research summary

There is a paucity of data on the aetiology of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). The research group will conduct a UK wide case-control study of 560 patients with classic MPNs and up to 560 non-blood relative or friend controls to investigate the causes (aetiology) of MPNs and to evaluate quality of life2 (QoL). DNA and RNA samples from MPN patients and controls who participate in the case-control study will be collected and retained to evaluate gene-environment interactions upon receipt of additional funding.
