Study of Azacytidine Followed by GM-CSF in Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)
NaSingle-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of azacitidine and GM-CSF can help to control MDS. The safety of these drugs will also be studied. Azacitidine is designed to block certain proteins that stop the function of tumor-fighting genes. By blocking the "bad" proteins, the tumor-fighting genes may be able to work better. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is designed to help produce white blood cells. This may help to fight infections.
