Therapy of Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) With Antithymocyte Globulin (ATG) and TNFR:Fc
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the frequency of hematologic responses in patients with myelodysplastic
syndrome treated with anti-thymocyte globulin and tumor necrosis factor receptor IgG
chimera.
- Correlate phenotypic, cytogenetic, and functional disease characteristics with
treatment responses in these patients.
- Determine the safety of this treatment regimen in this patient population.
OUTLINE: Patients receive anti-thymocyte globulin IV over 8 hours daily for 4 days followed
by tumor necrosis factor receptor IgG chimera subcutaneously twice weekly for 16 weeks.
Patients are followed at 8, 16, and 20 weeks.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15 patients will be accrued for this study.
