Prediction of response to erythropoietin stimulating agents (ESAs) in anemic MDS patients is often based on the Nordic score. We wished to validate the Nordic score (IWG 2006 response criteria) in a larger cohort and determine if other variables such as IPSS/IPSS-R, ferritin, LDH, and a novel European ESA response score (Santini 2013) were of prognostic importance. We analyzed 208 ESA-treated MDS...
Recent evidence demonstrates that epigenetic silencing of genes is associated with myelodysplasia and that a worse prognosis may be correlated with hypermethylation of certain genes, such as the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p15. 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine (decitabine, DAC) is a nucleoside analog, which, at low doses, acts as a hypomethylating agent and is fivefold to tenfold more active than 5-azacytidine...
