Topic(s): Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS)

Program Description: Join Dr. Naval Daver and Dr. Guillermo Garcia-Manero from MD Anderson Cancer Center to discuss current treatment options and unmet needs for different patient populations with MDS. The expert panel will further explore emerging targeted and combination therapies, including rationale for use, novel mechanisms of action, and the latest clinical data. As an issue of great importance, the evidence on disparities in clinical trials will be reviewed and strategies shared to educate patients on the clinical-trial process and its benefits, while encouraging enrollment when appropriate. Patient interviews will ensure the education remains patient-focused by providing their experiences with treatment and the clinical decision-making process.
