| Secondary | Change From Baseline to Week 4 in Polycythemia Vera Symptoms | Baseline and Week 4 (Cycle 2, Day 1) | Patients were asked to rate their symptoms on a scale of 0 (none) to 10 (worse possible) for the prior week giving the worst level of symptoms experienced during the preceding 7 days. A negative change from baseline score indicates improvement in symptoms. For patients with Polycythemia Vera, queried symptoms included fever, itching/pruritus, bone pain and night sweats. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline to Week 4 in Essential Thrombocythemia Symptoms | Baseline and Week 4 (Cycle 2, Day 1) | Patients were asked to rate their symptoms on a scale of 0 (none) to 10 (worse possible) for the prior week giving the worst level of symptoms experienced during the preceding 7 days. A negative change from baseline score indicates improvement in symptoms. For patients with essential thrombocythemia, queried symptoms included itching/pruritus, bone pain, night sweats, paresthesias (tingling or numbness), and weakness. |
