Therapy response / outcome Lenalidomide (Revlimid) TP53mut do not achieve complete cytogenetic response in del5q MDS (Jadersten JCO, Austin Kulasekararaj BJH) 5’Azacytidine (Vidaza) • TET2mut may respond better • TET2mut and DNMT3Amut may respond better • ASXL1 and SF3B1 status also modulate response Finally • Genetic testing is more widely available: – Cheaper, simpler, faster • Mutations help in the certainty of diagnosis. • Incorporation into prognostic models such as IPSS • The era of biomarker-based therapy may not be too distant Acknowledgments Department of Hematological Medicine, King’s College London Prof G Mufti Prof Judith Marsh Dr Austin Kulaesekararaj Dr Robin Ireland LMH laboratory KCH: Dr Steve Best Dr Aytug Kizilors Sara Ribeiro Tashna Smith
