Advances in Diagnosis & Management of MDS
Dr. Bejar will examine current challenges in MDS diagnosis, including the use of molecular profiling and the diagnosis of clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS). Dr. DeZern will describe her recent experience in managing MDS in the wake of a global pandemic. Dr. Götze will explore the potential of venetoclax in the treatment of higher-risk MDS. Dr. Gill will discuss the role of CAR-T cells in myeloid malignancies, focusing on what we learned from their use in lymphoid malignancies. Finally, Dr. de Botton will illustrate current perspectives in the use of targeted therapies in MDS patients, focusing on drugs that have already been approved for treatment of AML (enasidenib, ivosidenib) or that are currently in clinical trials on MDS (APR-246).
