Samuel Urrutia, MD, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, speaks on the application of the recently developed Molecular International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-M) for classifying myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and measuring response to hypomethylating agents (HMA) based on genomic features. In a retrospective study, no definitive correlation between genomic characteristics and response to HMAs was identified, but a trend suggested that higher-risk patients may exhibit a more favorable response. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
