Abstract
The present invention relates to utilizing terminal erythroid differentiation (TED) as a biomarker for prognosis and as a therapeutic target in myeloid malignancies, in particular myelodyplastic syndromes. The present invention relates to identifying patients with myelodysplastic syndromes at risk for poor survival/outcomes who would benefit from aggressive treatment, by characterizing their TED profile using protein and gene expression markers and combinations thereof.
