Article
Treatment with imetelstat demonstrated clinical efficacy across molecularly defined subgroups of patients with heavily transfused, lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome who did not harbor 5q deletions and were relapsed/refractory to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents.

Article
Novel combinations with agents, such as pevonedistat, eprenetapopt, venetoclax or magrolimab, plus hypomethylating agents like azacitidine are being evaluated to determine whether they can improve upon the lackluster median survival for patients with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
