mIDH1 is CONSIDERED AN
EARLY DRIVER IN THE PROGRESSION OF MDS

IDH1 mutations block normal differentiation of myeloblasts1,3,16,17

Patients should be retested at the first suspicion of clinical change because IDH1 mutations can arise anytime during the course of MDS6
IDH1 mutations are reoccurring molecular abnormalities that can occur in up to 4% of patients, and the mutation rate may double in patients who progress to AML6,18
mIDH1 is associated with a higher rate of transformation to AML, higher incidence of neutropenia, and poorer overall and leukemia-free survival18-20,a
NCCN Guidelines® recommend genetic testing for somatic mutations
(ie, acquired mutations) in genes associated with MDS.3

aThe 2-year survival rate for patients with mIDH1 MDS was 14% compared to 52% for patients with wtIDH1 MDS. 67% of patients with mIDH1 MDS transformed to AML compared to 28% of patients with wtIDH1 MDS.18
