Sponsor: Nordic MDS group

Principal investigator: Lars Möllgård

Co-principal investigator: Eva Hellström-Lindberg, David Bowen

Primary endpoint: Hematologic response after 6 cycles of azacitidine or azacitidine+lenalidomide treatment

Status: Protocol writing

Start: Expected accrual time, FPI Q3 2011

Research support: Celgene

Inclusion critera:

  • MDS (IPSS Int-2 or High) or AML (multilineage dysplasia and 20-30 % blasts) with a karyotype including del(5q).

Exclusion criteria:

  • Eligible for upfront allogeneic SCT without prior chemotherapy including azacytidine
  • Prior therapy with lenalidomide
