Novel therapy for myelodysplastic syndrome
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study tests a new combination treatment for people with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), a blood disorder. The drug aims to slow the disease and improve blood counts, and might be an option for patients who haven't responded to other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 20 years or older
- You must have a diagnosis of MDS (including certain subtypes like refractory anemia or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia)
- Your cancer must be at a certain risk level (low or intermediate-1) and you've either not responded to other treatments or are currently taking azacitidine injections, OR your cancer is at a higher risk level (intermediate-2 or high)
- You must be generally active, able to care for yourself (ECOG score 0 or 1)
- Your liver, kidney, and lung function must be within acceptable limits

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies whether BLEX 404 oral liquid, used along with standard azacitidine treatment, can help people with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). It’s mainly for people who are starting azacitidine for the first time.
This study tests whether adding a new drug called iadademstat to the standard treatment ASTX727 helps people with advanced myeloproliferative neoplasms (blood cancers that cause the bone marrow to make too many cells). The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works better than the standard treatment alone.
This early-phase trial studies a new treatment plan (decitabine-related medicine with other targeted drugs, depending on the arm) for adults with MDS/MPN overlap syndromes. It aims to improve control of the disease by targeting the abnormal bone marrow cells. Because it’s Phase 1/2, the main goal is to find safe dosing and see whether it helps responses.
This trial tests whether adding an experimental drug called bexmarilimab to standard azacitidine can help people newly diagnosed with high-risk MDS. Doctors want to see if the combination works better than azacitidine alone.
This trial tests a new oral medication (iadademstat) combined with a standard therapy called a hypomethylating agent for people with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or related blood cancers. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and effective.
This trial tests a new drug (ICP-248) combined with standard treatment azacitidine for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). It aims to find out if the combo is safe and effective for those who haven't been helped by other treatments or cannot have strong chemotherapy.
