ABL1 and myeloproliferative disorder: In analogy to BCR-ABL-positive CML, patients may present in an intermediate phase between MPN-CP and MPN-BP, defined as accelerated phase (MPN-AP), which is characterized by 10–19% circulating blasts, although some prognostic scoring systems, which are discussed in more detail in Section 4, suggest even lower blast counts as risk factors in Ph-MPN [13,14].
