To assess treatment patterns and outcomes in patients with non-del(5q) lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes. Patient medical records were reviewed in the USA, Canada (CAN), UK and the EU. Analysis included 119 patients in the USA/CAN (median age, 61.5 years) and 245 patients in the UK/EU (median age, 67.3 years). Most patients received erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) as first-line (1L) therapy (USA/CAN: 89.0%; UK/EU: 90.2%). A substantial proportion of 1L erythropoiesis-stimulating agent-treated patients were transfusion dependent before 1L (USA/CAN: 37.1%; UK/EU: 51.2%); a small percentage of these patients achieved transfusion independence during 1L therapy (USA/CAN: 2.8%; UK/EU: 14.4%). These findings highlight an unmet need for more effective treatments among patients with non-del(5q) lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes.
评估非 del(5q)低危骨髓增生异常综合征患者的治疗模式和结局。在美国、加拿大(CAN)、英国和欧盟审查了患者的病历。分析包括美国/加拿大的 119 名患者(中位年龄 61.5 岁)和英国/欧盟的 245 名患者(中位年龄 67.3 岁)。大多数患者接受促红细胞生成素(ESA)作为一线(1L)治疗(美国/加拿大:89.0%;英国/欧盟:90.2%)。相当一部分 1L 接受促红细胞生成素治疗的患者在 1L 之前依赖输血(美国/加拿大:37.1%;英国/欧盟:51.2%);这些患者中有一小部分在 1L 治疗期间实现了输血独立性(美国/加拿大:2.8%;英国/欧盟:14.4%)。这些发现突出表明,非 del(5q)低危骨髓增生异常综合征患者存在未满足的治疗需求。
