The MDSF ASH 2024 Symposium will focus on challenges the MDS community faces in 2024. Progress has been made in understanding the biology, genetics and pathogenesis of MDS. Prognostication, and treatment strategies have been improved, but not satisfactorily. In 2024 we are still facing problems: Can we assess minimal residual disease ? We are still debating regarding the recommended Hb threshold for RBC transfusions. The increasing role of inflammation in the disease pathogenesis, raises the question of anti-inflammatory treatment. The reports on germline mutations and their role in MDS in adulthood might change our genetic screening policy. Finally, we are still puzzled whether patients with higher-risk disease should be treated with hypomethylating agents only, as the only proven treatment, or additional therapy might improve the outcome. The symposium will highlight these challenges, and based on recent advances in the field, potential solutions will be presented and discussed.
