PURPOSE: Recurrently mutated genes in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are pathogenic drivers and powerfully associated with clinical phenotype and prognosis. Whether these types of mutations predict outcome after allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with MDS is not known. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We used massively parallel sequencing to examine tumor samples collected from 87 patients...
