Myelofibrosis (MF), a complex hematological malignancy, presents a diverse array of symptoms, including anemia, constitutional symptoms, bone marrow insufficiency, and splenomegaly. The latter, often necessitating blood transfusions, poses an essential obstacle to MF management. While conventional approaches predominantly involve the use of JAK inhibitors, the potential for exacerbating anemia introduces complexity to the treatment. Nonetheless, Momelotinib stands out as a promising pharmaceutical compound with the potential to revolutionize the field. Momelotinib is an ACVR1 antagonist and a dual inhibitor of the JAK1 and JAK2 enzymes. By targeting MF's hematological and fibrotic aspects, Momelotinib influences iron metabolism by regulating hepcidin. This results in reduced hepcidin expression and increased iron availability, ultimately leading to improved anemia and reduced dependency on blood transfusion. This study aims to provide a concise overview of the pathogenesis of MF and elucidate the mechanism of action of Momelotinib. Subsequently, our review offers a practical summary encompassing the effects of Momelotinib in monotherapy, combined comparative drug therapy, and its associated side effects. Additionally, we explore the application of Momelotinib in other cancer types and investigate predictors for treatment success. Furthermore, we examine the utilization of Momelotinib in patients with liver and kidney failure.
