65M w/ MDS/MPN-unspecified (5-10% blasts on marrow, normal karyotype but 7 tier 1 molecular lesions). Not a transplant candidate. He has a very proliferative phenotype. Symptoms have improved with hydrea and then 2 rounds of decitabine but he has become transfusion dependent (1-2 pRBCs/week), WBC remains >80k, and repeat marrow is unchanged with >95% cellularity and 8% blasts. Do you think Ven/Aza is appropriate?
