Status: ot Recruiting

Sex: All

Target Recruitment: 30

Inclusion Criteria

1. Patients who either completed the 12 months AOP2014 treatment arm of the PROUD-PV study, or are currently participating in the CONTINUATION-PV, and at the end-of-treatment visit (EoT) of the PROUD-PV study or two weeks after the last visit of the CONTINUATION-PV study, fulfill at least one of the following criteria:
a. Normalization of at least two out of three main blood parameters (Hct, PLTs and WBCs) if these parameters were moderately increased (Hct<50%, WBC<20 x 10 9/L, PLTs<600 x 10 9/L) at baseline visit of the PROUD-PV study, OR
b. >35% decrease of at least two out of three main blood parameters (Hct, PLTs and WBCs) if these parameters were massively increased (Hct>50%, WBCs>20 x 10 9/L, PLTs>600 x 10 9/L) at baseline visit of the PROUD-PV study, OR
c. Normalization of spleen size, if spleen was enlarged at baseline visit of the PROUD-PV study, OR
d. Otherwise a clear, medically verified benefit from treatment with AOP2014 (e.g. normalization of disease-related micro-vasculatory symptoms, substantial decrease of JAK2 allelic burden).

Exclusion Criteria

Withdrawal criteria, as specified in the PROUD-PV and CONTINUATION-PV studies, which mandate treatment discontinuation:
1. Non-recovery from the AOP2014 related toxicities to the grade (usually, Grade I) which allows continuation of the treatment.
2. Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) score of 11 or higher on either or both of the subscales, and /or development or worsening of clinically significant depression or suicidal thoughts.
3. Progressive and clinically significant increase of liver enzyme levels despite dose reduction, or if such increase is accompanied by increased bilirubin level, any signs or symptoms of a clinically significant autoimmune disease.
4. Clinically significant development of a new ophthalmologic disorder, or worsening of a pre-existing one, during the study.
5. Loss of efficacy of AOP2014 or any comparable situation where no further benefits of treatment continuation are expected by the investigator.
