Basic Information

Brief Summary

This study enrolls patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and myelofibrosis (MFS), with transfusional iron overload and treats them with the investigational iron chelator, SP-420. SP-420 may be better tolerated and safer than commercially available iron chelators. Iron chelation therapy (ICT) has been shown to improve outcomes in iron overload, but adherence is poor due to problems related to ease of administration, tolerability, and safety.
