Particularly since the advent of lenalidomide, lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients with del(5q) have been the focus of many studies; however, the impact of age on disease characteristics and response to lenalidomide has not been analyzed.
We assessed the effect of age on clinical characteristics and outcomes in 286 lenalidomide-treated MDS patients with del(5q) from two multicenter trials.
A total of 33.9, 34.3, and 31.8% patients were aged <65 years, ≥65 to <75 years, and ≥75 years, respectively. Age <65 years was associated with less favorable International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) risk and additional cytopenias at baseline versus older age groups, significantly lower cytogenetic response rates (p = 0.022 vs. ≥65 to <75 years; p = 0.047 vs. ≥75 years), and higher rates of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression (Gray's test, p = 0.013). Lenalidomide was equally well tolerated across age groups, producing consistently high rates of red blood cell transfusion independence ≥26 weeks.
Baseline disease characteristics and AML progression appear to be more severe in younger lower-risk MDS patients with del(5q), whereas older age does not seem to compromise the response to lenalidomide.

自来那度胺问世以来,低危骨髓增生异常综合征(MDS)伴 del(5q)患者一直是许多研究的焦点;然而,年龄对疾病特征和来那度胺反应的影响尚未得到分析。
我们评估了年龄对两项多中心试验中 286 例接受来那度胺治疗的 MDS 伴 del(5q)患者临床特征和结局的影响。
分别有 33.9%、34.3%和 31.8%的患者年龄<65 岁、≥65 至<75 岁和≥75 岁。年龄<65 岁与国际预后评分系统(IPSS)风险较低和基线时存在更多的血细胞减少症有关,与年龄较大的组相比,细胞遗传学反应率显著较低(p=0.022 比≥65 至<75 岁;p=0.047 比≥75 岁),急性髓系白血病(AML)进展率更高(格雷氏检验,p=0.013)。各年龄组均能良好耐受来那度胺,始终保持≥26 周红细胞输注独立性的高反应率。
低危 MDS 伴 del(5q)的年轻患者的基线疾病特征和 AML 进展似乎更为严重,而年龄似乎并不影响来那度胺的反应。
