The results of the trial were presented during the 2022 ESMO Congress by Chunkang Chang, MD, PhD. The researchers analyzed data from previously untreated adult patients with low- or intermediate-risk MDS. The analysis results have clinical implications, as venetoclax-based regimens are the standard of care for patients. Investigators retrospectively identified patients with PTCL who were treated with romidepsin plus subcutaneous azacitidine. A retrospective study showed that response rate and survival outcome are still modest for high-risk patients. The study analyzed 70 transplant-ineligible patients with high-risk MDS and MDS/AML with less than 30% of myeloblasts. The approval was based on data from a trial that randomized patients with newly-diagnosed IDH1-mutated AML. The FDA approval was based on data from the AZA-JMML trial, which observed half of patients reach confirmed responses. Event-free survival was longer in patients treated with ivosidenib plus azacitidine compared with placebo plus azacitidine.
