Efficacy and Safety of 5-day Dosing of ON 01910.Na in Intermediate-1,-2, or High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

For MDS patients who have not responded to or have progressed after an initial response to DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTI) and are not stem cell transplant candidates, therapeutic options are limited. Participation in clinical trials such as this one may be considered. The specific objectives of this trial are to find out which dose of ON 01910.Na can be safety given to MDS patients and then find out if this dose of drug has any beneficial effects on the patients' disease. ON 01910.Na is a new, experimental drug; the reason for doing this trial is based on the anti-cancer activity of ON 01910.Na that has been observed in laboratory experiments and in early clinical trials.
