Abstract
Evaluating response to treatment in MDS represents a major challenge due to its associated complexity and heterogeneity. Although response criteria have been proposed by the IWG and revised on several occasions, these criteria have limitations. This review has outlined some refinements that can be used to improve response assessment and to ensure the identification of clinically meaningful endpoints.
期刊介绍:
Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology publishes review articles integrating the results from the latest original research articles into practical, evidence-based review articles. These articles seek to address the key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach which focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known, covering the spectrum of clinical and laboratory haematological practice and research. Although most reviews are invited, the Editor welcomes suggestions from potential authors.
