Summary

Open label, single arm study on Deferasirox treatment in MDS patients with chronic transfusional hemosiderosis.

Patients receive daily oral dosis of Deferasirox in order to eliminate the quantity of iron administered during transfusions and, if needed, to reduce the overload of already present iron.

After an screening phase in which patients are evaluated according to eligibility criteria, a one year treatment phase foresees monthly visits to evaluate safety and efficacy signs.
