Prognostic Molecular Markers in Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndrome

February 11, 2014 updated by: Jun Ho Jang, Samsung Medical Center

Prognostic Molecular Markers Determined by Using Gene Expression Profiling in Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndrome

In the era of hypomethylating agent in MDS treatment, the investigators aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of mutations in spliceosome machinery genes (SRSF2, U2AF1, and ZRSR2) on the outcomes of 1st line decitabine treatment in MDS.

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

A number of studies have tried to investigate clinical impact of mutations in spliceosomal machinery genes in MDS but they failed to demonstrate a consistent prognostic relevance. Moreover, the clinical impact of these mutations on the outcomes of hypomethylating agent treatment in MDS has never been explored yet. The investigators investigated the prognostic impact of mutations in spliceosome machinery genes (SRSF2, U2AF1, and ZRSR2) on the outcomes of 1st line decitabine treatment in MDS.
