Patients with no response or suboptimal response to any JAK-inhibitor therapy (regarding persistence of symptoms, splenomegaly, cytopenia or hyperproliferation) defined either by
Persisting Splenomegaly >11cm total diameter
Persisting leukoerythroblastosis
Anemia <6.2 mmol/l (<10g/dl)
Elevated WBC (>11 Gpt/l)
Persisting general or constitutional symptoms (persistence is defined as less than 50% reduction to baseline when using the MPN10 TSS Score) OR failure [secondary resistance] to JAK-inhibitor treatment as defined by IWG-MRT criteria

Baseline platelets count below 50 x 10^9/L and ANC < 1.0 x 10^9/L
Diagnosis of PV, ET (according to WHO 2016) or positive molecular test for BCR-ABL

Uncontrolled infection
Evidence of acute or chronic infection with hepatitis B, hepatitis C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or tuberculosis
Current participation in any other interventional clinical study within 30 days before the first administration of the investigational product or at any time during the study, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) study, or during the follow-up period of an interventional study with last dose of investigational product ≥30 days prior first administration of investigational product within this study
No consent for registration, storage and processing of the individual disease characteristics and course as well as information of the family physician about study participation
No consent for biobanking of patient's biological specimens
Prior therapy with checkpoint-inhibitors
Vaccination within 4 weeks prior to treatment start

Secondary malignancy that limits survival to less than 6 months
Drug or alcohol abuse within the last 6 months
Patients who cannot adhere to the Pregnancy Prevention Plan
Pregnant or breast-feeding females
Thiamine levels below normal limit despite supplementation
Patients who are unable to consent because they do not understand the nature, significance and implications of the clinical trial and therefore cannot form a rational intention in the light of the facts [§ 40 Abs. 1 S. 3 Nr. 3a AMG]
