Celgene's Current Quazar Clinical Trial of Vidaza pill form...

There is a clinical trial in progress called CC-486 (Oral Azacitidine).

"QUAZAR Study for Lower-Risk MDS Patients – A clinical research trial sponsored by Celgene Corporation. This is a study for people with MDS who need blood transfusions due to low red blood cell counts (called anemia) and low platelet counts (called thrombocytopenia)."

It's meant for patients with low-risk MDS; however, it may prove helpful also for those with higher blasts.
