Testing the Addition of an IDH2 Inhibitor, Enasidenib, to Usual Treatment (Cedazuridine-Decitabine) for Higher-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) With IDH2 Mutation (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)

Plain-language summary
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment of cedazuridine-decitabine (ASTX727) to the combination treatment of ASTX727 and enasidenib in treating patients with higher-risk, IDH2-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs, decitabine and cedazuridine. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Enasidenib is an enzyme inhibitor that may stop the growth of cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving ASTX727 in combination with enasidenib may be effective in treating patients with higher-risk IDH2-mutated MDS.

Inclusion Criteria:
* GENERAL MYLEOMATCH REGISTRATION CRITERIA:
* Patients must be registered to the Master Screening and Reassessment Protocol (MSRP) and assigned to this protocol by the MATCHBox Treatment Verification Team.
* Participants must not have received prior anti-cancer therapy for AML or MDS.
* Note: Hydroxyurea to control the white blood cell count (WBC) is allowed.
* Note: Prior erythroid stimulating agent (ESA) is not considered prior therapy for the purposes of eligibility.
* Participants must not be currently receiving any cytarabine-containing therapy other than up to 1 g/m\^2 of cytarabine, which is allowed for urgent cytoreduction. The use of prior hydroxyurea, all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), BCR-ABL directed tyrosine kinase inhibitor, erythropoiesis-stimulating agent, thrombopoietin receptor agonist and lenalidomide is allowed
* REGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA (STEP 1): Patients must have a morphologically-confirmed diagnosis of MDS with a Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) score ≥ 4.
* REGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA (STEP 1): Patients must have a detectable pathogenic IDH2 mutation based on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Myeloid Panel.
* REGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA (STEP 1): No prior treatment with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methyltransferase inhibitors (ASTX727, azacitidine, or decitabine).
* REGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA (STEP 1): Prior treatment with growth factors (ESA, granulocyte colony-st…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
