High-risk MDS with excess blasts-2 diagnostics and management
Summary:
- For a patient with high-risk MDS evolving to AML, with complex karyotype and deletion 17p with likely TP53 mutation, the panel recommends hypomethylating agent, such as decitabine and azacitidine, with venetoclax for induction as well as early evaluation for allogeneic stem cell transplant in remission.
- Vyxeos and 7+3 intensive chemotherapy would also be options to consider depending on the patient’s medical comorbidities, age, and performance status.
