Restoration of Autophagy and Apoptosis in Myelodysplastic Syndromes: The Effect of Azacitidine in Disease Pathogenesis [PDF]

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) comprise a diverse group of clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, cytopenia in the peripheral blood, and an increased risk of transformation into acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Higher-dose venetoclax with measurable residual disease-guided azacitidine discontinuation in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia

Haematologica, 2023
Venetoclax+azacitidine is the standard of care for newly-diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) for whom intensive chemotherapy is inappropriate. Efforts to optimize this regimen are necessary.
