Top 10 list of MDS collaborative priority research goals

Priority research goals
1. To establish a new standard of care for frontline higher-risk MDS 
2. To develop better treatment options for DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (DNMTi)-refractory MDS 
3. To develop effective strategies for TP53-mutated MDS 
4. To advance novel treatment strategies to impact the underlying pathophysiology of lower-risk MDS 
5. To conduct clinical trials in a collaborative international effort with emphasis on equal access and on PROs 
6. To formulate unified diagnostic criteria and classification subgroups for MDS 
7. To establish and systematically validate clinically meaningful response criteria for MDS therapy 
8. To establish tools to predict, and ultimately reduce, risk of progression of CH to MDS and other hematological malignancies in clinical practice 
9. To establish linked clinical databases and biobanks allowing sharing of data 
10. To improve the development and dissemination of reliable preclinical models of MDS
