Trends in Clinical Investigation for Myelodysplastic Syndromes

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) paradigms have been dramatically changed over the last 10 years by major breakthroughs on both pathophysiologic and therapeutic aspects. It is currently a field of intense clinical investigation as new challenges have emerged in both low-risk and high-risk populations. In low-risk MDS, long-term control of anemia is a major issue, and second-line treatments after failure of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents are warranted. Several promising therapies are available, and there are many open questions on how to select the most adapted agent and/or sequence of agents in a specific individual.
