Hi Steve,
I couldn't find any evidence-based mentions of serrapeptase being used to help treat myelofibrosis. I found no mention of it in the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) database. A few members like @steve1948 @hishamhussain and @marzz have mentioned using it for lung conditions with varying success (or lack thereof).

Have you spoken to your wife's doctor about it?

I, too am looking for confirmation ref serrapeptase and myelofibrosis. I took a nice product for a while which I found at a very good price (relatively). Now I have just contacted my medical herbalist because I have found the following comparisons with pure serrapeptase. It does sound as if it ought to be beneficial, doesn't it!

... here is one comparison:

and another brand:

Confusing, don't you agree?

I took serrapeptase for a while believing it could possibly 'eat-up' the fibrin - logically it should. However, it was rather expensive and I had no evidence that it did do this. More recently I was advised on this site to take sprouted broccoli powder, but within the liposomal mixture I make, as it can be destroyed in the gut otherwise. I have just begun adding a tablespoon to the mixture: I use a jewellery cleaner (see liposomal vitamin C on youtube). First I soak 6 tablespoons of organic sunflower lecithin for four hours in two cups of water and then put it in the blender for a minute. I then put 3 tbls of sodium ascorbate (vit C), 1 tbls of curcumin and 1 tbls of broccoli powder in one and a half cups of water and add immediately to the blender for another minute. I then pour the whole mixture into the jewellery cleaner for 22 minutes (this time recommended by a doctor who also makes her own) and pour into a jar to put in the fridge. I mix half a glass of the mixture with half a glass of vegetable juice and take regularly (not all in one go!!) with other supplements.
I should say that this practice, plus the other supplements I take, has brought my PSA figures down from 15.5 to 7.7. The nurse was astonished - she asked what I had done to achieve this and took down the list of supplements! (I take no medications except Anadin Extra every 24 hours for a nerve trapped in my back.)

I took serrapeptase for some time. It needs to be coated. All the same, I had no evidence of any improvement. Onamission recommended putting Broccoli sprout powder in the liposomal vitamin C mixture (+ curcumin) which I make. He then recommended adding Quercetin which could also otherwise get destroyed in the gut. I was just about to add that this morning when I came across this article by Dr Mercola demonstrating how vitamin C and Quercetin are a good combination against COVID 19!

Incidentally, I was diagnosed in 2010 with Primary MF, have taken no medication at all and was recently told to carry on with what I am doing by my consultant as I am unusually stable. I do consult a medical herbalist and take a selection of supplements, organic food and more and more sunshine!
Good luck
