Summary

Treatment of higher-risk (intermediate, high and very high) Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) according to the revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) who obtained a stable hematological response ( CR, PR) after subcutaneous azacitidine treatment.

Azacitidine is administered in hospital in a day care regimen, in Italy only by subcutaneous injection. The long duration of therapy obliges patients to travel to the hospital regularly, with evident worsening quality of life, both for patients and caregivers, although balanced by prolongation of survival and hematological improvement. Many patients stop therapy or are reluctant to continue because of the dependence from caregivers and hospital care.

This clinical study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral azacitidine (CC-486) plus best supportive care in subjects with higher-risk (intermediate, high and very high) Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) according to the revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) and (high and INT-2) according to IPSS who obtained a stable hematological response (CR, PR, SD with HI) after at least 4-6 cycles of subcutaneous azacitidine treatment and maintained for 2 additional cycles.
