pubmed:abstractText |
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hemopoietic progenitor cell disorders, and patients with MDS regularly develop anemia and frequently become transfusion-dependent. Treatment with erythropoietin (EPO) has been tried to correct anemia with only limited success with response rates ranging from 16% to 25%. However, it is becoming evident that the generally rather low response rate of EPO in patients with MDS will be improved by the combination of EPO with either G-CSF or GM-CSF.
