What are the major needs in MDS?(problems that limit significant cure rate)
• Identification of poor prognosis “lower risk” patients– By default sparing patients with no need of therapy– Concept of early intervention
• Development of new targeted therapies for patients with lower risk MDS
• Development of new therapies for patients with higher risk MDS
• Understanding mechanisms of resistance to epigenetic modulators in MDS (critical)
• Understanding mechanisms of transformation to AML• Incorporation of alloSCT in MDS• Minimizing risk of relapse post alloSCT in MDS
Why do we need prognostic models?• Predict survival without therapy
• Therefore decide on who needs therapy• Shorter the survival associated with increased need of therapy
• Predict survival with therapy• Example: SCT
• Predict survival in the context of the patient• Comorbidities
• Molecularly adapted therapy– Early intervention– Targeted approaches
Prognostic models• IPSS• WPSS• Global MDACC model• MDACC lower risk model• Impact of comorbidities• New “revised IPSS”

TET2 and response to 5-azacitidine• TET genes transform 5mC to 5(OH)mC
• Mutations may result in passive hypomethylation
• N=103 patients: median age 72 (43 to 91)
• Standard 5-aza in France
• Median N of cycles 7 (1 to 39)
• TET2 MUT in 21 pts (17%)
• RR 11/17 (65%) in MUT vs 26/86 (30%) in WT (p=0.01)
• OS 15.3 months in MUT vs 16.2 in WT (NS)Itzykson. ASH 2010 abst 439

Effect of monosomy 7 in MDS/AML post alloSCT
• EBMT analysis from 1981 to 2006. N=278 patients• N=192 (70%) related• N=63 (22%) monosomy (one monosomy and at least one
other abnormality)• 5-year OS was 28% and RFS 26%• Relapse rate at 3, 12 and 60 months was 9, 29 and 39%• Non-relapse mortality was 21, 36 and 40% respectively• For patients with monosomy:
– OS 0% (HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.6 to 3.6); p=0.0001– RFS 0% (HR 2.4 95% CI 1.7 to 3.9); p=0.0001
